Review: Audio-Technica ATH-ANC70 QuietPoint Noise-Cancelling Headphones
A microphone is built into the headphone, so it can be used with phones.
On the left earcup is a control button that has the logo on it, which can: play/pause music, answer/end calls, and change music tracks (back/next). A volume control and switch, to enable the noise-cancelling feature, is also on the left earcup. (For more information about noise cancelling go to http://www.audio-technica.com/cms/features/b3ef06fca462fcad/index.html )
One AAA rechargeable or disposable battery is needed to power noise-cancelling. I experienced that removing and replacing the battery cover is a bit tricky: sliding the cover up unlocks it…removing it was not simple due to two internal catches.
When I enabled noise-cancellation, it increases volume…and can increase distortion.
Per the Instruction Manual: “Earpads will wear over time. Replacement pads are available from Audio-Technica dealers.” (I wish they would include a spare set.)
The 40 mm drivers give a frequency response of 10 to 25,000 Hz. I found it to be clean and clear. The bass response is pleasant (and deep).
The carrying case impressed me. It’s sturdy…I feel confident the headset won’t be easily damaged when I toss it a backpack/bag.
The connector input for the headset is 3.5 mm (1/8-inch). The cable that is supplied is 1.2 m (3.9 feet) long. A 6.3 mm (1/4-inch) adapter is included, as well as an airline adapter.
I have loved using them, and give them my blessing. {insert angelic choir here}
