With all the stresses of travel, babies crying and jet engines rumbling don’t help a bit. Utilizing active noise-cancelation technology, these headphones will help you get some peace and quiet.

 

 

Samsung Level Over

Samsung takes aim at Beats by entering the headphone game with the Level Over. This pair of wireless cans have a stylish construction that’s light and comfortable.

 

 

Audio-Technica ATH-ANC9

A long-time player in professional audio, AKG’s ANC9 is the company’s premium model, offering three modes of listening: mode 1 for planes and trains, mode 2 for noisy offices and crowds and mode 3 for enhancing quiet rooms.

 

 

Plantronics Backbeat Pro

They’re sturdy and comfortable, but also a bit on the heavy side. These wireless headphones pack a lot of nifty features as well, like volume control on the earpiece and automatic pausing when you put them around your neck.

 

 

PSB M4U 2

Noise-canceling headphones often trade sound quality for isolation, but PSB’s M4U 2 headphones buck the trend with their quiet, but high-quality acoustics.

 

 

Bose QuietComfort 25

The reigning champ of the noise-canceling game, Bose replaced their popular 15s with the new QuietComfort 25s. While the sound quality isn’t top tier, you’re not going to find a quieter pair of cans.
