Does this headset feature active noise cancelling tech or just earmuff type hearing protection?

No it doesn't have noise cancelling tech; however, with the radio on it muffles most of the noise coming from two sanding machines (I sand gym floors)

I am not sure if they are like standard earmuff hearing protectors. These are the first one's I have ever purchased. I can tell you they work very well. We wear them in our side by side and can hear each other well.

hello, it doesn't have noise cancelling system, this is a surround sound headset. per spec it doesnt say anything about cancelling system.

Yes they are. Some devices require you to switch on for noise cancelling, HM7000 instead is always active.

Yes it's noise canceling. The bass is very good and the drivers are incredible. Very good head set.

You can use them with noise cancelling turned off. Just like a normal headset.

These do not have "active noise cancellation," but do isolate fairly well for an on-ear design - not as well as an over-ear design would, however. Microphone quality is fine for phone calls, but I have never used for gaming.

It's not a noise canceling device, but since it's used with an earplug, outside noise is naturally blocked out. I use it with an acrylic molded earpiece. Works great.

there is not active noise cancellation while listening that i have noticed. i do not use the microphone function, so i cannot speak to that.

No it's not active noise canceling but I can barely hear some yelling at me when I have these on (yes I've had people yelling around me lol)

The headphones have both passive and active noise cancellation. There is a switch on the headphones that allows you to turn the active noise cancellation on. However, the size, shape, and insulation of the earcups also provide a bit of passive, unpowered noise cancellation. The passive noise cancellation is passable at best; it'll cover up any low-to-medium volume background noise, but you can still hear some louder things. Hope that helps.

There is no actual active noise cancelling, but it blocks out pretty much all noise - much to my surprise. They seal so well on my ears that you can't hear anything. I use them at the gym almost daily and it blocks out all the noise from the gym. It also works the other way. While wearing them, I can turn the volume all the way up, and even standing right next to me, someone else can't hear the music. I would not hesitate in the least to purchase these again, active noise cancelling or not. They are one purchase I've made over the years that I absolutely LOVE. Plus, the ability to pair with two bluetooth devices at the same time is something I never thought much about until I actually use it. Whomever designed these should get a very fat reward. The only minor complaint I have is the location of the power button, but you can say with confidence that you will never accidentally turn them on or off. Hope this helps - but my opinion - plane, train, or automobile - don't hesitate on these.

Yup. The noise cancelling is turned on with a switch. It's separate from the bluetooth

Active noise cancelling happens whenever the switch is in the on position. So even if you're using the cable to connect to the phone via the 1/8" jack you can have active noise cancelling on by flipping the switch.

Its not noise cancelling the way you think, there is just layers of filters that will filter out background noise. Like the foam piece around most microphones except even better. The mic is the highest quality you can buy on a headset and you wont need to worry about that at all.

It doesn't cancel any noise at all. Just a marketing ploy. Beware because they don't do refunds if you use the mask.

nope, no active noice cancellation. the seal is decent so normally they are ok for just everyday noise. i personally wouldn't wear it on the plane cuz i would fall asleep with it on and it would hurt if did :S
