Sounds too good to be true,,, noise gets into your ears ,,down the tube into your head,,,loud loud noise,,,,without plugs there will be noise,,,but even with plugs I get noise,lots of noise..so how can they stop noise ?

Different frequencies cancel each other out, whether it works i don't know.

I don't think it works. I've had Bose noise cancelling headphones (QC3) for some years now. I've used them on many flights and never noticed any noise reduction. The up side is the sound quality for music is outstanding though.

Just a hint, but if you're considering any Sena kit, before you commit your cash just make sure that replacement rechargeable batteries are available for it (unlike the less than 3 years old Sena Bluetooth intercom system - for which I am scouring the Earth for a replacement battery instead of Sena's own suggested solution, which is: "It's not serviceable - buy a replacement unit" at £179).

Presumably, I will need to do the same when the batteries pack up in the other units bought at the same time.

Really?
I tried on my mates noise canceling headphones (not bose) on a flight and was very impressed with how well they cancelled out the drone of the plane when turned on!

They're not noise cancelling xup, when used at a volume to overcome the wind noise you'll be even more likely to damage your hearing!

Pardon...?

if it hasn't got a price on it means you can't afford.

The web page says "Coming Soon" so I guess I will have to remember to look again in a few years time when they finally release it.

Actually it is supposed to be available on the NEC show. I just spoke with one of the Sena UK distributors. They do not have price yet though.

I hope it will be about 50 quid  :rollin at least I am not giving more the  that...
