Description
News
Building on the success of the award-winning ATHANC7, Audio-Technica’s ATHANC3 QuietPoint Active Noise-Cancelling In-Ear Headphones reduce distracting background noise by 85% 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° 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 your QuietPoint.

Audio Technica ATHANC3 QuietPoint NoiseCancel Earphones Reviews
2 out of 10
"Do not buy if you plan to use it with an iPhone"
Feature:
OK in features, nice pouch
Quality:
Cheap plastic feel of the earbuds
Value:
If you don't use your phone as music device you may be OK with these headphones. But if you do, save yourself the trouble and don't buy these - go with a Bose or a Sony, that as far as I can tell, don't have this problem
Sound:
Horrible noise from cell phones interference -- the noise cancellation circuit picks all the cell phone-to-tower transmission bursts (the buzz sound you hear when you place your cell phone close to a speakerphone). Works OK with iPods and other sources. If you don't use your phone as music device you may be OK with these headphones.
Ease of Use:
Nice controls, easy to use
Support:
No idea
Overall:
Pros: OK noise cancellation, nice carry-on pouch, decent sound Cons: Cheap plastic feel of the earbuds, horrible noise from cell phones interference -- the noise cancellation circuit picks all the cell phone-to-tower transmission bursts (the buzz sound you hear when you place your cell phone close to a speakerphone) Summary: Works OK with iPods and other sources. If you don't use your phone as music device you may be OK with these headphones. But if you do, save yourself the trouble and don't buy these - go with a Bose or a Sony, that as far as I can tell, don't have this problem
