Introduction

|
Audio-Technica's full-size QuietPoint ATH-ANC7 are excellent noise-canceling headphones for the money, so we had high expectations for the company's first earbud-style noise cancellers. The QuietPoint ATH-ANC3 ($169.95 list) mostly delivers, and although we're slightly disappointed with the cabling design, the sound quality is very good, and the combination of noise cancellation and isolating eartips is effective. They're pricier than Sony's MDR-NC22 earbuds; there are slight differences between them in sound and design that may push you one way or the other, but for the most part they're very similar.
