PXC 310 BT

PXC 310 BT
The PXC 310 BT headphones provide undisturbed music enjoyment in noisy environments – even without the constrictions of cables. Their supra-aural, closed design and the latest active noise compensation tech­nology (NoiseGard) make the PXC 310 BT especially suitable for use with in-flight entertainment systems. Due to their active and passive attenua­tion of ambient noise, they let you enjoy music even in noisy environ­ments.
Bluetooth
The PXC 310 BT comply with the new Bluetooth 2.1 standard. Via their Bluetooth interface, they can be connected to a wide variety of Bluetooth
enabled devices. Bluetooth wireless technology allows the PXC 310 BT to communicate with your Bluetooth enabled device (e.g. mobile phone, MP3 player, PC or PDA) within a range of up to 10 meters.
®
apt-X
With apt-X audio coding, you can be assured of crisp, pure and full stereo sound. It allows you to not only hear, but experience and feel the audio as it was intended. Utilizing apt-X, Bluetooth technology can now offer wireless audio quality that is indistinguishable from the highest quality wired connection.
From major public broadcasters to film production studios, apt-X is used throughout the world to transmit high quality digital audio from A to Z in real-time. It was developed to meet the exacting standards of musicians and audio engineers who love the exceptional dynamic range and high fidelity it provides.
Now available on selected consumer devices, the apt-X technology ensures that music lovers everywhere can stream the rich listening experience that only apt-X can deliver.
NoiseGard
The NoiseGard active noise compensation system is based on the principle of cancelling out sound using “anti-sound” (phase-inverted sound). Tiny microphones pick up low-frequency ambient noise (up to 1 kHz) near the ear. The NoiseGard electronics use this noise to generate a sound wave which is the exact opposite (IE: at the same level but polarity reversed – 180° out-of-phase), the effect being that the polarity reversed signal cancels most of the outside noise.
TalkThrough
The PXC 310 BT headphones have a TalkThrough function, which allows you to communicate with other people without having to remove the headphones. When TalkThrough is activated, professional quality micro­phones mounted on the outside of the headphones pick up all acoustic signals in the immediate vicinity. Annoying background noise is electroni­cally filtered out, only allowing the voice of the other person to pass through the headphones clearly.
