A:AnswerThese headphones will cancel low pitched noises better than those that are higher pitched. That being said, the active noise canceling could probably do a pretty good job of blocking out a good amount of sound. But, $300 is a hefty price for a product that is mostly serving as earplugs.
A:AnswerEvery pair of anc earbuds I’ve used had this issue, switched to over anc headphones and they don’t have the problem. Not sure why they are supposed to be the same anc mics.
A:AnswerBose QuietComfort® Earbuds utilize both active and passive noise reduction technologies. They use a sophisticated proprietary approach for active noise reduction, placing microphones both inside and outside the earbuds. The electronics system senses the sound in almost any environment and then measures, compares, and reacts — instantaneously — to produce an opposing cancelling signal. The passive noise reduction is achieved by a combination of the acoustic design and proprietary eartip design.
A:AnswerThe quick answer is yes, I had the same annoyance, then an update was sent out and now you can control volume by swiping up or down on the right earbud. A double tap on the right earbud will pause and play.
