Noise-Cancelling Headphones. Read these instructions before using the headphones, and keep the manual for future reference. About ATH-ANC70 QuietPoint

headphones use proprietary active noise-cancelling technology to provide a comfortable listening environment in areas with high ambient noise. The headphones feature two miniature microphones in each earpiece that pick up ambient noise (such as traffic, air-handling systems, etc.) and create a sound-cancelling signal to effectively block the noise. Smartphone Compatible The ATH-ANC70 headphones offer an integrated microphone and controller for answering calls and controlling music. The mic and controller (located in the left earcup of the headphone) support select smartphone models and touchpad devices. The microphone has an omnidirectional pickup pattern and it is designed for crisp intelligibility, so your voice will be clearly transmitted without having to speak directly into the mic. Premier Sound Audio-Technica equipment is used by major artists for studio recording and capturing live performances on stage...allowing audiences to experience their work as clearly and fully as it was intended. These headphones are designed to offer you the crystal-clear sound that makes Audio-Technica the choice of leading artists worldwide. Wherever you happen to find yourself—in the comfort of your living room, in a noisy office, or settling in for a long flight—there is no better way to experience audio or immerse yourself in a peaceful environment.
