Building on the success of the award-winning ATH-ANC7, Audio-Technica's ATH-ANC23 QuietPoint Active Noise-Cancelling In-Ear Headphones reduce distracting background noise by 90% while offering the superior sound that makes Audio-Technica a world-leading pro audio company.
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 degrees 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.
Wherever you happen to find yourself-on a busy subway, in a noisy office, or settling in for a long flight-there is no better way to experience audio or immerse yourself a quiet environment. Discover our QuietPoint. And find your own.
