Query: Very disappointing

I'd like to think the poor performance was a result of my unique (noisy signal) environment rather than the possibility that $150 headphones could be that bad. Or maybe they were just defective. I thought I had set my expectations rather low, fully anticipating some static. But, no matter where I went in my house and no matter which of the three channels I used, I got about 60% noise and 40% content at best.
