The Denon AH-NC732 headphones are a set of noise-cancelling on-ears. With the active noise-cancelling features and a $300 price tag, the AH-NC732s are joining the crowd attempting to dethrone Bose from its pedestal amongst mainstream listeners. Like the Bose headphones, the AH-NC732s are comfortable, don’t move around much when your head does, and come with some good cable and adapter options. Unlike the QuietComfort headphones, however, the AH-NC732s can switch their cancellation on or off, letting you conserve battery life when you don’t need it. Also, audio quality gets a significant boost from shutting off the noise cancellation.

The AH-NC732s are lacking a bit in audio quality. They had below average scores on every audio test except for distortion, where the performed remarkably well when active noise cancellation was turned off. When it was turned on, the distortion took a significant hike due to the noise the feature generates. Fortunately for them, this immaculate distortion score helps pull them up significantly.

Overall, the Denon AH-NC732s are a solid pair of mid-range headphones that, through some unfortunate circumstance, have the $400 price tag of a higher-end product.
