No, I don't think so, but Forensic's can take a print off say a window, if you were caught later they could match it up against your lug'ole

So any burgler's out there pressing their ear against a door or window beware

You sound like someone with experience of fingerprint ink

From what Ive heard, noise cancellings are never that good. Just buy some big ones that cover the whole of your ear. In ears can never replicate the same feeling as big headphones, and they block sound out pretty well.
I disagree there mate, I tested the wifes sony ones by having them on then turning the tv in the room up really loud, you could just about make out there was noise at quieter parts of the music.

I was very impressed as I had never tried any before.

I've had and replaced 2 sets of these now, note I've replaced them due to loosing them not because they're buggered.
They fit neatly into the ear and dont get fouled by putting the crash helmet on. They pretty much block out all noise so pretty sure you can wear them on a plane with out disturbing/been disturbed.

I don't doubt it should cancel that type of sound. Just wondering how useful they would be on the underground or on the back of a really loud bus.

Massive +1 on this! One of my course mates (doing an audio recording technology course) has a pair of these and we passed them around everyone to have a listen and for the price they are unbeatable! Superb quality. He did have a little portable headphone amplifier with them to give a bit more drive. Linky: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Fiio-E5-portab...#ht_1648wt_907

This is the setup he used and got great quality for about £65 all told (NOT BAD!)

Cheers for the info guys, I ended up buying some Sony over ear noise cancelling ones. I've yet to try the
As they are in the post. I'm fed up with in ear ones as every pair I've ever had have eventually hurt my ears after 20min. Hope they work.

Ps in flight head phones from the air line are norm rubbish!
