Dad's Gift Wishlist: Win A Prize

- by

7. Sennheiser PXC250 II Noise-Canceling Headphones

Sennheiser PXC250 II Noise-Canceling Headphones, $179.99

Is your dad constantly in the air for work, finding himself lost in a wall of noise at the airport or on a plane? Or does his daily commute involve a noisy subway where he desperately needs some peace and serenity? The PXC250 IIs from Sennheiser offer the latest in noise-canceling tech and should keep the outside world at bay the next time Dad is listening to his favorite sports podcast at 35,000 feet. The PXC250s use a closed design to keep out noise from the start, while Sennheiser’s NoiseGard technology kicks in to drown out the lower outside frequencies when things get a little too noisy. A single AA battery keeps the noise cancelling going for a full 50 hours and a steel-reinforced headband means the PCX250s will last even longer than that. Plus, with a compact folding design, the PXC250s won’t be taking up much in the way of valuable carry-on real estate. To top it all off, Sennheiser throws in a two-year limited warranty, so your dad will experience digitally assisted bliss well into the future.

It looks like that in the US it's common to spend 1500$ for fathers day... I guess that because of the € falling down, I'll print a picture, and put it in a "hand made" macaroni frame :-D
Very nice article, but a bit "high priced" for fathers day... I guess you tried to find a good excuse to gather those objects under one subject

It's not very common at all, unless you have a ton of money to waste, and most kids do not. Most of these aren't really good options for adults giving to their parents either, as these are pretty much targeted at the 20-40 age range.

So, yeah, I'm not quite sure how this is actually a "Father's Day gift guide", more like "wish list". lol

This is a list of items if you are planning on "going big." Stay tuned: tomorrow we publish a list of 50 ideas that cost under $50. So, we've got both angles covered.

Sometimes fathers buy themselves gifts on fathers day, in that context it's a fine list :-)
