Well priced on-ear headphones. Noise-cancelling introduces a little hiss but the music is much more direct and attacking
Write your own reviewFor
Good price; decent noise cancelling
Against
Some hiss; music is muffled and distant with noise cancelling off; cheap controls
These are really cheap for noise-cancellers, and although they’re fairly solid, the volume and noise-cancelling controls feel cheap.
The noise-cancelling is fine, but it does introduce some hiss. That said, it also improves the Lencos’ sound, adding attack and drive.
All this for under thirty quid? That’s a pretty good deal…
