Verdict

The Soul Electronics Jet Pro is a high-definition, over-ear travel headphone featuring an advanced four-microphone Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) system designed to eliminate ambient cabin and office noise. These wired headphones weigh approximately 216g and are equipped with 40mm neodymium drivers, offering a frequency response of 20Hz to 20kHz and a signature sound profile with boosted bass. Key pros include a premium build with an aluminium and leather-look headband, a secondary pro-audio cable with silver-plated oxygen-free copper, and a dedicated passive mode that allows for continued use even if the single AAA battery powering the ANC is depleted. However, some users have noted that the sound can be hollow or imprecise with a lack of midrange detail, and the noise cancellation performance may not fully block out louder, non-constant environmental sounds.
