How Noise-Canceling Headphones Work

How Noise-Canceling Headphones Work

Noise-cancelling headphones have become pretty popular over the last decade or so β€” here’s how they work. The concept actually dates back to 1978 when Dr. Amar Bose, an MIT professor, created the idea on a flight he was on.

    This still doesn’t explain how you physically can not hear. Does it play the frequency in your ears? Like how does the mat hing frequency stop

    I’m using my Sony WH-CH720N wireless headphones. They’re noise cancelling abilities are really good. This video was interesting, as I did wonder how the NC feature works exactly. πŸ‘

    So do they lower the decibels that contact your ear or are they doubling the decibels when they neutralize the sound with another sound wave?

  5. @TONY-uc1ps on November 13, 2024 at 12:13 pm

    I would only wear noise canceling headphones in the comfort of my home, I think it’s a bad idea to wear them in public.

    I have a pair of the Bose Quiet Comfort 2 earbuds, and wow, the noise cancelation on those is absolutely amazing. I recently was on a flight, and while is still could hear the place engines, it wasn’t nearly as loud. I ended up just using them to dampen the sound while I read a book rather than listen to anything.

    Noise cancelling makes me feel like my head is under 20′ of water.

    Tried a noise cancelling headphone. I felt like it created vacuum first and then played the sound. I had a feeling similar of sitting in a plane where the ears get numb. Sony noise cancelling headphones. The w series

    This guy named Rowan told me that noise cancelling on can make people not hear the things you say

  19. @matt_pick on November 13, 2024 at 12:31 pm

    Surely if they’re playing this anti-noise, that’s more sound waves going into your ear, so if you use it to block out loud sounds it’s still giving you hearing damage?

    It’s pretty damn incredible that the headphones can determine the soundwaves that it precisely needs to cancel out and then create the canceling waves in real-time …. amazing this isn’t just science fiction.

    I have a question actually. Does this noise cancelling headphones work while some song is played on the headphone and you won’t be hearing anything except for that song or it happens like that nothing is being played on the headphones and even then you won’t be hearing anything while wearing it, like it can help you studying or when you want silence in noisy places ???????

    The thing with noise cancelling when activated is I can hear my own pulses in my ear.

    just do what sony has forgot to do. make an airtight seal around your ear and earbuds. not rocket science

  48. @privacyIsKing on November 13, 2024 at 12:59 pm

    I have horrible neightbors who constantly listen to loud music, good luck calling the police here in Mexico to tell them to keep quiet! So I’m guessing noise cancelling headphones are the best way to go, I wonder if they would help at all

  50. @lepaul26 on November 13, 2024 at 1:02 pm

    The problem also is: the headphone has to listen first and then can create the opposite soundwave , so you always have some latency, hence it’s impossible to get a 0 volume of noise
