I too have the Bose that everyone is talking about, the price may be steep but they are sure worth it.

Are the noise cancelation???

No, but they're not designed to be. Still, you have three different inner ear thingies to give you a more snug fit and help reduce outside noise. However, in my opinion, outside noise is barely noticeable, especially at certain volume levels, and because the sound is so darn great...;)

I'll have to pass on them. I work in a very loud environment so I'll have to find something else

I'm good with the supplied ear buds. When I am in a noisy environment, I simply turn the volume up just enough to block it out but still enjoy my music.

The noisy environment won't be an issue with the Bose IE2's, but everybody is different and have different needs. It's all good...:)

If you want wireless, try Jaybird Bluebuds X, crisp sound, decent battery life to boot
