About Noise Canceling

The internal microphone embedded in the headphones picks up ambient noise. The player generates an antiphase sound wave against the ambient noise to reduce it. The Noise Canceling function can reduce unwanted ambient noise especially in a vehicle such as an airplane, train, bus, etc., allowing you to enjoy music at a low volume.
  1. The waveform of the ambient noise (original sound).

The internal microphone embedded in the headphones picks up the ambient noise. Then, the Noise Canceling circuit analyzes the waveform of the noise.
  1. The antiphase waveform against the noise.

The player generates an antiphase waveform against the noise to cancel it out.
  1. The composite waveform. Two waveforms cancel each other out.

The original waveform and antiphase waveform combine to cancel each other out, reducing ambient noise.
