Top 4 Reasons To Use Noise Cancelling Headphones

How Do Noise Cancelling Headphones Work?

After Dr Bose (Founder of Bose Corporation) took a noisy flight from Zurich to Boston in 1978, he had an audio epiphany: Using basic physics, he designed a headset technology that uses miniature microphones to detect external noise, and electronics to generate an equal and opposite signal that cancels it out before it reaches the listener’s eardrums, this lead to the first commercial acoustic noise cancelling headphones in 1989. Genius!
