How QuietOn Works

QuietOn earplugs combine the advantages of in-ear passive earplugs with active

noise cancelling, providing optimal noise reduction across the whole audible

spectrum, especially effective at these low frequencies. This makes QuietOn ideal for

use in a variety of noisy environments. Traditional earplugs use passive attenuation

to reduce the level of sound entering the ear. Whilst they are good at blocking high

frequency sound, they are quite poor at reducing low frequency sound, especially

below 200 Hz. Such low frequency sounds include airplane noise, traffic noise,

snoring, music coming through the wall, environmental noise from industrial sites and

engine noise from a motor vehicle.

Active noise cancelling uses a microphone to sample the sound, and a speaker to create a phase-shifted sound that cancels the original sound. In full-size on-ear noise cancelling headphones the microphone element is located outside the ear. However, in QuietOn, the microphone that samples the sound is located right inside the ear canal! This means that QuietOn can more accurately produce anti-noise that results in good noise cancellation at the ear drum.
