Thank you Amro. I will look at some reviews.

I've never tried them on the train nor the tube but I reckon they should be just as effective then. These are on-ear headphones. I think they are quite small when compared to other headphones but inevitably they are bigger than in-earphones. You could check online for better and more in depth reviews. Not sure this is the kind of headphones you are after but hope this helps a bit.

Perhaps my subject line was too abrupt! Have been using a set of in ear noise cancelling earphones with my Stream. These have now failed but I did not think they were particularly effective in blocking external noise - i.e. on the tube. Any suggestions please. Peter Bentley
