Pros & Cons
Pros
Noise cancelling is very good. When needed there is a switch and it feels like turbo mode. They do a fantastic job canceling droning noises.
The sound quality is very good as can be expected from audio technica. The fit is okay. The build quality is also decent. The comfort level is excellent.
Qc15's are no longer available unless you want to buy them used or at a hefty premium. But they're nice, affordable, and have some pretty handy features. For the money you pay for them, they are simply worthwhile.

Highlights
Quality
The sound quality is very good as can be expected from audio technica
They always had more detail and transparency than the bose and are right up there in that capacity with the sony

Price

Competitiveness
I would recommend easily for the cost to performance
Update while its a little annoying you can get a pair of replacement earpads for less than 5

In areas where there is a lot of electromagnetic noise they do sound terrible

My impression is that cable is responsible for that because all clicking and hissing sounds are present with cable coupled to headphones with or without source

Although not the best in comfort noise cancellation and sound quality

For the price and from my other pair of headphones i really was expecting something more sturdy the build quality does not feel great and i can see how without careful storage the foam can come out of the pads
