Introduction
The Phiaton PS 20 NC ($149 MSRP) is a set of entry-level in-ears that won’t break the bank, but won’t blow you away, either. Boasting active noise cancellation, these headphones certainly don’t lack in features, but issues with durability and performance might leave users accustomed to higher-end headphones wanting for more.
