Sony’s Headphones.

In pursuit of perfection.

Imagine a complete, soundproof, and acoustically perfect sound studio

Imagine how pure and beautiful your music would sound in a studio without the intrusion of external noise. Now imagine that this studio is light and small enough that you can take it with you anywhere. Impossible? Not with Sony’s remarkable new headphones. The innovative Noise Cancelling Circuit reduces external noise by approximately 80%, and the sound remains pure and clean even at low volumes. Never again will noise from airplanes, air conditioners, buses, trains, or the neighbours next door get between you and the music. Don’t let the blare of the outside world pollute your music any longer. Try Sony’s Noise Cancelling Headphones: the only sound studio you can wear.

The anti-noise wave

The secret of Noise Cancelling headphones is a pair of tiny microphones, one on each headphone. These “micro- microphones” pick up ambient noise from your listening environment, analysing its particular wave forms. The Noise Cancelling Circuit then produces an “Anti-noise” wave with inverse or opposite properties. When the external “noise” wave and the special “Anti-noise” wave are combined, they cancel out each other, producing the golden sound of silence. With approximately 2/3 of external noise reduced, your music will sound purer than ever before. *Cancellation ratio based on energy of sound under Sony’s measurement
