Blocks Outside Sound with Active Noise-Cancelling Technology
These headphones detect environmental noise using miniature built-in
microphones, and apply a corresponding sound-cancelling signal. The active
noise-cancelling circuitry is located in an external module attached to the
headphone cable. This greatly reduces on-ear weight for long-wearing comfort.
Although compact, the headphones deliver powerful, immersive sound, thanks to
their precision high-efficiency full-range drivers and premium internal
components. They’re ideal for use with the Apple iPod, iPhone and iPod touch,
as well as other portable music players, computers, in-flight entertainment
systems and many other devices. The ATH-ANC1 features super-soft ear pads for
complete comfort, even on long trips or extended listening sessions.
Unlike some other noise-cancelling headphones, the ATH-ANC1 headphones work
even without batteries or when the noise-cancelling feature is turned off. In
addition to its handy travel pouch, it comes with a 1.6-foot extension cord,
an airline adapter and a AAA-size battery.
