I found the E7’s to have good noise canceling capability, but the bluetooth connection was good for gaming: there was a strong delay between movement and sound. For music, this was not an issue. That said, while the cans worked as advertised and seemed reasonably well made, the sound quality just wasn’t up to my personal standards. I have Grados; perhaps they’ve ruined me anything less accomplished.
I received my set on 7/13 and I am very impressed with them. While they may be a little larger than other earphones I looked at (including the Cowin E7 Pro) I need and like the larger ear cups for more comfort and better sealing against my head. These headphones fit ‘around the ear’ instead of ‘on the ear’.
The active noise cancelling is impressive, especially for the price ($40 cheaper here than available on Amazon), and I like that I can easily replace the ear foam as they are held on magnetically. My only dislikes are they wear a bit warmer than other headphones because they encase your ears, and the manual was sub-par due to its tiny pale font and lack of explanation on how to turn them off.
But as far as sound and function, these things are a home run!
