Amazon.com Product Description

Mate them with your Apple iPod music player or use them independently with any portable audio device--either way, Macally's PODPRO noise-reducing headphones offer high style, relaxing comfort, and quality sound from their closed-ear, large-diaphragm design. The set weighs a mere 6.5 ounces, and its adjustable headband also happens to collapse for easy transport in the supplied soft leather carrying case.

The PODPRO's impressive frequency response spans 18 to 21,000 Hz, giving you extended bass and treble reproduction in addition to up to 16 dB of solid-state noise reduction from 25 to 16,000 Hz--not as wide a range as the headphones are capable of reproducing, but still just about the entire audible range of human hearing. This makes them perfect for use on plane flights and bus rides, in offices with noisy air-conditioning systems, and even while you vacuum the carpet at home.

The headphones' high, 105 dB sensitivity guarantees solid performance from even the wimpiest headphone amplifiers. Noise-reduction requires use of 2 AAA batteries (not supplied), good for up to 100 hours of active use.

What's in the Box
Headphones, 2-prong airline adapter, soft leather carrying case, and a user's manual.

Great for this price range.......2007-06-15

I've had a pair of these for about a year. I bought them for listening to my iPod while on the train to work. They fold up nicely, they're sturdy, and the carrying case is actually useful. The sound quality is good -- much better than the buds that came with my iPod. (I've heard nicer headphone sound, but not from headphones in this price range.) I find them very comfortable -- they fit over my ears, rather than on them, and they stay on my head while running for the train. They also have a volume control on the cord, which is nice because then I don't have to get my iPod out of it's case to tweak the volume.

The noise reduction is so-so -- it works well on low-frequency rumble, but doesn't do very much for higher-frequency background noise. And it can occasionally hiss a little, though I've never had them actually squeal.

pretty nice.......2006-07-22

I think the guy who didn't like these may have gotten a bad set or something. They work great for me.

Great Value.......2006-07-20

I have more expensive NR headphones, but for the price, compact-ability and quality, these are a great value. I use them more than my other more expensive set. Great for Travel!

Solid. Inexpensive........2006-04-18

I've used these on four 14-hour flights halfway around the world, and what I can say about them is that they work. I have no idea what problem the previous reviewer had with them, because I've used mine now for about a hundred hours over the year or so I've owned them and they do what they need to do: they dramatically cut the noise from airplanes and other persistent sound.

However... They are just not as comfortable as more expensive ones. I now have a set of the Bose headphones (only six times more expensive than these!!) and they're pretty impressive. Having said that, these are good for $50, and if you're going to use them for stretches shorter than 14 hours they're fine. (I found them comfortable in two- or three-hour stretches.)

So, in sum: worth $50. But the more expensive ones are better. But these work pretty good.

great value.......2005-12-01

These headphone are great travel companions. My iPod sounds wonderful through them and the noise cancellation feature really quiets down airplane noise, even when sitting on the wing. I've had mine since April and 7 months later am as happy with these headphones as the day I bought them. Still working off the same pair of AAA batteries, too!

Nice and compact, the leatherette carrying case can also hold your iPOD.

Five years and counting...........2006-05-09

Don't know what all the negative reviews are about. I've had my Nomad mp3 player for five years now, and it's NEVER quit on me. I've never had a problem with it, period.
I love the fact that I can plug it into my computer and transfer song files, create playlists, and fix it up just for my use. Since it's got a huge memory, I use it as a backup for the songs on my computer's hard drive, just in case the computer conks, which it has! Got a new computer, and since I had all my songs on the Nomad, I just did a quick transfer, and voila!
I wouldn't give up my Nomad for an Ipod ever.

the biggest let down.......2005-08-21

When i got this mp3 I thought i was getting a great substitute for an I pod because I pods are kind of expensive. Also I wanted to get an mp3 I would have for at least 2 years (that was cut short). When I was riding my bike 8/20/05 (3 months after i bought it) the mp3 all of a sudden stoped working. When the battery gets low a screen pops up that says that it has a low battery. That is what I thought happend but, if the screen popped up the player wouldn't have shut off. About 3 hours later I brought the mp3 home to see what went wrong. When i turned it on the screen fizzled out. Well tech support said to put a paperclip in the reset button. After putting the paper clip in the reset button 10 times the mp3 would not return to normal. So I took it as a loss and now I am getting an I pod. DON'T GET THIS MP3 YOU WILL HAVE IT FOR 3 OR 4 MONTHS AT BEST.

Not a fan of harddrive based players.......2005-02-18

I've had a couple of nomads and they've all died
on me. The last one was the NX. It only lasted
a couple of days and croaked.

Excellent sound, does what it's supposed to do.......2004-12-10

I bought a refurbished one of these off of eBay directly from Creative Labs. It only had a 30 day warranty, so once it ran out, I took out the 20GB hard drive that came with it and put in a 40GB one. I also got a second LiIon battery for it for under $20 on ebay.

The player does what it's supposed to do -- play back MP3 files in high fidelity sound. The Zen NX has a nice headphone amp and drives studio-style headphones without problem. The EAX DSP settings do a nice job with EQ'ing sound and also normalizing volume when you have it on shuffle. It also has virtually gapless playback -- this is, for me, a must. The included software is actually halfway decent. I use Red Chair Software's Notmad Explorer -- far better.

Complaints: no included car adapter, job dial feels a bit flimsy, no firmware support for Audible files (although you can get around it -- do a search on www.nomadness.net), making playlists without the computer is bothersome. The included earbuds are low-fi, get a set of Koss PortaPros or something similar.

Now, this being said, this player is good enough that the complaints are not enough to drop the rating below 4 stars. YMMV.

Too heavy and difficult to operate.......2004-10-07

I bought one in September 2003, it worked fine for a while, then I had to throw it away. It froze, and there was no way to bring it back to life, couldn't use it even as a storage device. It's heavy, the buttons are placed in awkward places and the menu is really hard to read. The aluminium face plate also breaks loose easily. The software can be a bit cumbersome. I wouldn't buy one again. And I hate to say that i bought an G4 iPod 20GB, and it works perfectly, the firmware is easy to use and the device is light and easy to operate. I am happy with mu iPod.

A Great Upgrade over the Flimsy OEM Tripod.......2007-04-05

I still find it hard to believe I was able to purchase a tripod of this quality for the money I spent. This tripod is about a 1000% improvement over the flimsy tripod that came originally with my orange tube Celestron C8. The telescope is now stable, much more enjoyable to use, and no longer looks like a child's toy.

Two problems: (1) The first tripod shipped arrived damaged in transit. Amazon handled the exchange seamlessly. (2) One of the slotted holes that accept the screws that attach the motor drive to the tripod was cast slightly narrow. I had to file quite a bit of metal to get the screw to go in. This is a Q.C. problem, and should not have been something I had to deal with. Had I bought it locally, I would have carted it back to the dealer for him to address.

Value servic e.......2007-08-10

Excellent product, very good price, reasonable delivery charge and fast delivery. Ease of ordering.
Thank you Amazon, may you live long.

got it for PE exam, now I use it every day.......2007-06-28

This was one of the few calculators on the list for the PE exam. It was also the cheapest (I think). I bought it, and started practicing with it at work so I'd be comfortable with it at the exam. It turns out that I love the data entry format. I used HP's RPN for a LONG time and thought it would be difficult to switch, but this makes even more sense because you enter the problem EXACTLY how you would write it on the paper (i.e. square root sign comes BEFORE the number)! I don't even use my trusty old HP now unless I accidentally leave this one at home. I am even thinking about getting a 2nd one so I can have 1 at work and 1 at home to study with (and I've heard that sometimes calculators walk away during lunch hour at PE exams, so it might be good to have a 2nd hiding in my bag).

The only flaws I've found so far are the instruction manual, quick auto power-off and the plastic cover. The manual does not go into enough detail but there are several references available online so, not a huge deal for me. When I get close to the exam, I'll probably print out my favorite and take it with me. The quick power-off (after about 6 minutes) can be frustrating, but I haven't really had a huge problem with it.

The plastic cover is annoying because it snaps on and off instead of slides. I don't know why this bothers me, it just does. Also, it would have been nice if the cover was flat. Instead, it is slightly rounded with "feet" to stabilize it. The feet work great as long as the entire calculator is sitting on a flat surface but if one corner is off, the whole calculator rocks back and forth every time you hit a button. Also, with the cover snapped onto the back, it is kind of uncomfortable to hold in one hand and enter data. With the cover off it is better, but I'm worried I'll loose the cover.

I am definately happy that I purchased this calculator instead of the more expensive HP that was on the PE approved list.

Wow!.......2007-06-07

This little thing is really a gem! I'm shocked at how much math a $20 calculator can do. Really helped me get through the FE as this thing solves quadratic & cubic equations, and even does numeric integration and differentiation! A very well designed tool.

Best calculator I've owned.......2007-05-30

Does everything I need it to do for engineering classes without all the extra frills and distracting buttons people never use.

Excellent calculator for the price........2007-05-15

I bought the HP 33S last year for the sole purpose of taking the PE. I have been using HP calculators and the RPN logic for more than 20 years and felt very compfortable with it; however, the 33S was a dissapointment to me, for one reason, good luck trying to see the decimal point, so 33.457 looks like 33457, that one little thing turned me off from using the 33S, so I went and purchased the casio fx-115MS, what a calculator!!! So many functions, and ease of use, the two lines are a beauty, and the numbers are huge, and don't forget the decimal point, I can really see it. I think I'll buy another one as back up. Now, if only the Casio can take the PE test for me!
