When you are listening to music on planes or other crowded, loud places it is often difficult to hear your music over the noise. Regular headsets allow background noise to seep in, so you hear the plane engine and other noise. Called "white noise" this is mostly low frequency vibrations and a noise canceling headset works by reducing low frequency sounds. You hear only the sound playing in your headset.
Instructions
1. Choose the type of noise canceling headset you want to use. The basic types are over the head, over the ear and ear buds.
2. Use your noise canceling headset to listen to music from your iPod or MP3 player. This is great for long commutes on the train or international plane trips.
3. Take phone calls with your noise canceling headset. When calls come in the voice is clear and you do not hear any background noise. No more asking your caller to repeat himself, you can hear him clearly the first time.
4. Watch movies on your portable DVD and hear the sound clearly with your noise canceling headset. You will not miss a beat of the action when it comes through loud and clear on your headset.
5. Put your noise canceling headset on just for some quiet time. If you want to block out all background noise use your headset but do not plug it into anything. This is ideal for taking a nap on a train or plane.
