Introduction   The AblePlanet Clear Harmony NC200s are an entry-level pair of active noise cancellation headphones. You can find the NC200s for about $100, making them a decent budget option. Since they're an entry-level option, you shouldn't expect pristine sound quality. Their audio quality isn't great and their active cancellation feature creates an annoying amount of anti-noise. This being said, these headphones exist in a time where manufacturers are pricing their active-cancellers at $500 with a straight face, so we're somewhat relieved AblePlanet didn't use the feature to boost the price to absurd levels.     Page 1 of 12 Tour & Design   Section The Good The Bad Tour & Design • Seems durable; looks good. • A bit plasticky.
