5Make sure the amplifier is connected to a set of speakers or headphones.

6Using the relevant application in your device, play the audio or video file that you want to listen to in high-resolution.

By using a noise cancelling headset with your device, you can get much clearer audio quality when listening, for example, to music in a noisy environment, such as on a bus, a train or a plane.
