QuestionIs the noise cancellation technology also effective for the mic? I want to use these in the office but don’t want to pick up office noise in the background.
Asked 4 years ago by Brad.
- Answer Hi Brad, Thanks for your inquiry. The noise-canceling function of this unit is effective in low-frequency ranges such as airplanes, trains, or offices (near air-conditioning, etc.) and is not as effective for higher frequencies, such as human voices. Additional microphones on these headphones also assist in isolating sound while talking on the phone, resulting in improved phone call quality. Regards, Jess

QuestionIs there a way to keep stereo sound while using the mic? I know these aren't designed for gaming, but for me they work well except I lose directional sound with the mic activated. I've dug around in setting and it doesn't seem there's an option for both.
Asked 4 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer Hi BestBuy Customer, Thank you for inquiring about the XB900N. Choosing [Headset (WH-XB900N Hands-Free)] means that the HSP/HFP profile is used and you do get to use the headset's microphone this way. If you choose [Headphones (WH-XB900N Stereo)], the connected device send all its audio output to the headset using the A2DP profile and a video call may not be available. Sound quality may become low due to the conditions of the communication line and this is not a malfunction. You may refer to the link below for more information. https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/whxb900n/v1/en/contents/TP0002050078.html Regards, Jess
