1 Introduction
HP Bluetooth® Active Noise Cancellation Stereo Headphones allow you to wirelessly connection to an
audio device.
Active noise cancellation reduces unwanted ambient sound, such as the noise in a crowded airport. By
increasing the vacuum within the ear cup, active noise cancellation produces noticeable audio
improvement and sound clarity.
SRS WOW Audio Technology (available only with a wireless Bluetooth connection) takes digital sound
to the next level. Bass enhancement, virtual surround sound, and innovative "center control," will further
enhance your listening experience.
This guide provides steps for connecting the headphones to devices that are equipped with an audioout (headphone) jack or Bluetooth support. Examples of these devices include the following:
computer
●
mobile phone
●
MP3 player
