2. Noise-cancelling headphones - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise-cancelling_headphones

   Noise-cancelling headphones are headphones that suppress unwanted ambient sounds using active noise control (ANC). Active noise cancellation makes it possible to listen to audio content without raising the volume excessively. In an aviation environment, noise-cancelling headphones increase the signal-to-noise ratio significantly more than ...

3. Active noise control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_noise_control

   Active noise control (ANC), also known as noise cancellation (NC), or active noise reduction (ANR), is a method for reducing unwanted sound by the addition of a second sound specifically designed to cancel the first. The concept was first developed in the late 1930s; later developmental work that began in the 1950s eventually resulted in ...

4. Soundproofing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soundproofing

   A pair of headphones being tested inside an anechoic chamber for soundproofing. Soundproofing is any means of impeding sound propagation.There are several methods employed including increasing the distance between the source and receiver, decoupling, using noise barriers to reflect or absorb the energy of the sound waves, using damping structures such as sound baffles for absorption, or using ...

5. List of Bose headphones - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Bose_headphones

   In 2019, Bose released the Noise Cancelling Headphones 700, also known as the NCH 700, a new high-end product positioned above the QC 35. [13][14] The headphones have a stainless steel band and are controlled using a mix of buttons and touch-sensitive areas on the cups. Unlike the QC 35, they do not fold in half, but their ear cups can rotate ...

6. Headphones - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Headphones

   Headphones are a pair of small loudspeaker drivers worn on or around the head over a user's ears. They are electroacoustic transducers, which convert an electrical signal to a corresponding sound. Headphones let a single user listen to an audio source privately, in contrast to a loudspeaker, which emits sound into the open air for anyone nearby ...

7. Noise-canceling microphone - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise-canceling_microphone

   The internal electronic circuitry of an active noise-canceling mic attempts to subtract noise signal from the primary microphone. The circuit may employ passive or active noise canceling techniques to filter out the noise, producing an output signal that has a lower noise floor and a higher signal-to-noise ratio .
