Audio-Technica Introduces Improved ATH-ANC7B Quietpoint Active Noise-Cancelling Headphones
Audio-Technica today announced the introduction of its ATH-ANC7b QuietPoint® active noise-cancelling over-ear headphones, which have the same 85% noise-cancellation but incorporate a number of improvements from the previous model to offer even better sound quality, comfort and convenience.
The ATH-ANC7b delivers superior audio performance, with a smoother, richer and more natural tonal balance. The headphones provide clear, high-resolution sound, with impactful bass, a detailed midrange, extended treble and accurate imaging in an immersive soundfield.
Audio-Technica ATH-ANC7B
The earcups have been redesigned for greater comfort, and feature generously cushioned padding and a shape that fits easily over any ear. In addition, the ATH-ANC7b is supplied with two 1.6 m (5.2') and 1.0 m (3.3') detachable cables, and offers easier battery access.
The ATH-ANC7b employs exclusive QuietPoint active noise-cancellation technology that eliminates up to 85% of outside noise. A miniature microphone in each earcup detects environmental noise, and a corresponding sound-cancelling signal is applied. The headphones are ideal for use with the Apple® iPod®, iPhone™ and iPod touch® portable music and DVD players, laptop computers, in-flight entertainment systems and other devices.
The Audio-Technica ATH-ANC7b QuietPoint active noise-cancelling headphones will be available in August 2009 at a suggested retail price of $219.95.
The ATH-ANC7b utilizes large-aperture 40 mm neodymium-magnet drivers for a wide 10 – 25,000 Hz frequency response. The headphones have extremely high 109 dB sensitivity to provide generous volume levels from any music source. The ATH-ANC7b also works when the noise-cancelling function is turned off, and operates in passive mode without batteries.
The headphones fold flat for storage and come with two detachable 1.6 m (5.2') and 1.0 m (3.3') cables, a full-size ¼-inch adapter, an airline adapter for connection to in-flight entertainment systems, and a hard, durable carrying case.
The Audio-Technica ATH-ANC7b QuietPoint active noise-cancelling headphones will be available in August 2009 at a suggested retail price of $219.95. They will be available online or in stores at the Apple Store®, Electronics Expo and other Audio-Technica authorized dealers.
