Audio-Technica ATH ANC3WH NoiseCancel Earphone?
Product Description
The Audio Technica ATH ANC3 QuietPoint earbuds offer superior sound and reduce distracting background noise by 85% which is why Audio Technica is a world leader in the pro audio industry. Engineered to create a comfortable listening environment in areas with high ambient noise, these in-ear headphones feature a miniature microphone in each earpiece that picks up ambient noise (such as traffic, air-handling systems, etc.). Electronics in the control box create a noise-cancelling wave that is 180° out of phase with the ambient noise. This wave acts like a noise eraser: it cancels out the annoying sounds that surround you without diminishing the audio you want to hear. The result…a peaceful enclave to enjoy the music or movies of your choice.
