"All in all, the Klipsch Mode M40s are a success, just losing out on a fifth star because of the tough competition. There’s plenty to shout about here, even if you can’t hear it over all the noise-cancelling."

"Of all the sets featured here, the M40 has the best build, with sturdy locks that snap open and shut, and cups that wrap around each ear, rather than resting on the ear...Quality-wise, the M40 has great performance on the medium and high frequencies, and vocals are distinct."

"First impression: wow, I don't think I've ever really heard this record before - and I'm on the recording! There are layers upon layers of overdubs coming through each ear that were drowned out by road noise in my car or by any number of things at home. Here, in a closed environment, I can hear them loud and clear...I really have enjoyed the Klipsch Mode M40 headphones. They're nice all-'rounders and are fantastic for the airplane, plus they sound great. If you're in the market for some new 'phones, give them a look, I think you'll like them."

"...These headphones have set the bar for other companies to try to match; they produce killer sound, rival the comfort of a Tempur-Pedic mattress, have the ability to cancel out the most annoying sounds (like a crying baby on a long flight), and look super sexy."

Use with or without battery for a whole commute or listen to complete album collection, with the M40 headphones you are sure to be sitting in first class no matter where you take a seat."

"Klipsch did well with its first go at a full size, noise-cancelling headphone. The M40 look terrific and its noise-cancelling prowess is as good (in some cases better) than similarly priced competing models. In terms of audio, we found ourselves being pretty critical due to the $350 price tag, but the M40, with some break-in time, will make a lot of listeners very, very happy with its ample bass and superb treble response..."
