• When you use them on a plane without the cancellation, you can hear the plane, however as soon as you turn them on, the noise goes away. Hope this helps.

• Hello Ben. Great question. Noise-canceling is technology that actively plays a signal to cancel out another audio signal. Noise isolation is where materials passively block noise from ever getting to your ear in the first place. We hope this helps. Thanks!

• Noise canceling is more effective and usually requires battery operation. Noise isolation is passive and refers to the noise isolation of the earpads. Bose mades earphones (not headphones) that are noise isolating, called the SoundTrue Ultras. They are not battery operated but reduce the amount of ambient noise entering the earphones.
