Noise Canceling Puts You in a World of Your Own Music

The exceptional noise-canceling capabilities of the ultra-lightweight PS 300 NC headphones literally shut out the unwanted noises of the world so you can enjoy your own music in peaceful solitude. Phiaton's powerful noise canceling technology minimizes distortion while allowing the authentic production values to come through. It's the ideal lifestyle solution for hearing all your favorite music, including subtleties and nuances, even while traveling on an airplane or listening in noisy surroundings, like a train or subway car.

About Phiaton's Advanced Noise-Canceling Technology

Phiaton's patented VHST (Valves of the Heart Sound Technology) for noise canceling was inspired by the valves that enable flow of vital blood supply in and out of the heart. Translated to the audio paradigm, the technology makes use of check valves that expertly control airflow in and out of the headphone speakers. Rear enclosure and closed-ear design combine to create an occlusive effect for better noise reduction.

While the headphones are worn, the ear pads contract, exerting pressure on the front of the speakers. Normally, this would 'rumple' the speaker diaphragm and create a buzzing effect. But VHST Valves of the Heart sound Technology is designed to prevent rumpling of the diaphragm, thereby reducing air pressure and transforming incoming noise into reversed phase signals, or reproduced sound, which interferes with or cancels the unwanted noise. This allows real production values to come through with greater clarity.

Elegant Design with Genuine Leather Housing

The ultra-lightweight (140g) PS 300 NC headphones are available in an elegant Champagne color trim for an exquisite accent. They feature an adjustable headband, genuine leather housing, and a soft ear cushion design that seals in the sound for superior audio quality. Like all Phiaton headphones, the PS 300 NC headphones feature detachable earpads that can be replaced in the event they are lost or damaged.

Two Separate Audio Cables Allow for Phone Access

For total on-the-go convenience and flexibility, the PS 300 NCs comes with two separate single-sided cables, including one standard cable and another that features a remote microphone function that lets you access phone calls while listening to music.

Rechargeable Batteries

The PS 300 NC comes with two rechargeable batteries, a cradle charger with USB cable, and universal AC/DC adapters. One battery offers 18 hours of noise canceling function. Unlike most other noise-canceling headphone products on the market today, the unique PS 300 NCs still play music even if the noise-canceling battery is out of power.

Costumer Reviews

I travel internationally too much, with about one trip to Africa per month. Good headphones are a must for travel comfort on long flights. My last set (Sony) literally fell apart on my last trip. The headband didn't break so much as just separate into two pieces. NC ear-buds somehow just hurt after a few hours. This Phiaton model has several things going for it:

1. Folds nicely into a robust, but compact case. Other headphones I have used have had either a bag (which offers no protection) or a big solid case (too big to fit into the seat-back pocket on a plane). This case is just the right mix of protection and compactness.

2. At 52, my hearing may already be shot, but to me the sound quality is great. Ditto on the noise canceling.

3. Robust construction, but light weight.

4. The headband does not squeeze too tightly, even for someone like me who wears glasses.

5. The mute button is a nice feature for when the flight attendant asks you how you like your coffee.

6. The headphones are certainly not cheap, but less expensive than other higher-end models.

7. Being able to recharge the battery via a USB on my computer means one less charger to carry.

The downside: None so far.

So, after snooping for hours before this purchase, I am happy with these headphones...

The PS-300 earphones are the best kept secret. My husband has Bose. We make comparisons all the time. He has to recharge batteries all the time otherwise his earphones do not work. I do not. My earphones are always ready. What a blessing. The sound on the PS-300 is superior. Don't let anyone tell you different. They just want to make themselves feel better for spending the extra few hundred dollars.
