Philips Fidelio NC1 headphones with Active Noise Cancellation: hear nothing but first class sound
The Philips Fidelio NC1s are the first in the Philips Fidelio headphone range with Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) to block out ambient noise for an enhanced travel experience.
The headphones use a hybrid ANC approach, with four microphones detecting ambient noise before inverting the signal, effectively canceling it out and converting background noise to silence. Two ‘FeedBackward' microphones positioned next to the headphone drivers provide strong noise cancellation at low frequencies, whilst the two ‘FeedForward' microphones positioned on the outside of the headphone extend the bandwidth of noise cancellation into the mid and high frequencies.
With a battery that lasts for up to 30 hours, you can fly to the other side of the world before needing to recharge with the USB cable. Alternatively the NC1's can be used as a standard set of headphones of the ANC function is switched off.
The Philips Fidelio NC1s will be available for EUR 249 in key European markets from October.
