Audio-Technica ANC3 Description

Audio Technica ATH-ANC3 QuietPoint In-Ear Noise Cancelling Earphones in black. Active noise-cancelling earphones have been popular for years, particularly with travellers that wish to prevent external noise that might otherwise be unavoidable in aircraft, train, and other forms of transportation.

Audio Technica's ANC3 reduces exterior noise through an active noise cancelling built-in system. In addition the in-ear design isolates the earcanal from the outside world, resulting in undisturbed musical enjoyment. Active noise cancelling electronics of the ANC3 QuietPoint cancel out low frequencies, for example from aircraft engines. These electronics include a microphone that samples external noise levels, microchips then produce reverse sounds, neutralising conflicting frequencies by 85%. Together with Audio Technica's advanced sound delivery, the ANC3 replicates your music as it is meant to be heard - undiluted and lucid.

The package includes three different sizes of soft eartips to provide a custom fit and guarantee disturbance free listening. And with the included travel case and airline adaptor the ANC3 QuietPoint you have the perfect travelling companion at your side.

Trains, planes and automobiles will sonically never be the same again with the ANC3 QuietPoint from Audio Technica. Submerge yourself in relaxing, undisturbed musical enjoyment and revel in the technological marvel that is the ANC3 QuietPoint.
