Q: QuestionIn the pictures, why dont they look over ears?

Asked 9 years ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer Because they're not truly over the ear unless you have tiny little ears. It's worth it to spend the money on a truly over the ear headphone when you want noise cancellation.

Q: QuestionAre the headphones adjustable to fit smaller heads, like children?

Asked 9 years ago by SZMJZ.

• A:Answer I purchased these headphones for my 9 year old son and they adjust well to fit his head. They fit him snugly so I believe that they would work for younger children as well. I would recommend reinforcing the part of the wire where it splits to go to each headphone with electrical or other black tape since my kids are tough on headphones and that is normally the first thing that gets damaged.

Q: QuestionHOW exactly does "noise cancelling" work? I didn't realized batteries were needed. I'm looking for something that can block a tv set continuously playing in my workplace. So you have to have them plugged in to something and put a battery in it?

Asked 9 years ago by LibbySakiToby.

• A:Answer One AAA battery (included in purchase) is inserted into one side of the headset. I switch can then be turned on and off for noise cancellation. The only thing you need to have them plugged into, is whatever you are listening to.

Q: QuestionDoes the cord unplug from the headphone?

Asked 10 years ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer No. The cords are attached. This is not going to reduce noise at a gun range for example. It is for listening to music or TV or such. It reduces noises within certain sound ranges and has specific limits. Best Buy has more info on headphones and it explains better some of the uses and limits to expect. The noise canceling effect works for noise in the low frequency band primarily. Noise is reduced, but not canceled completely.
