28 August 2007 – Focusing primarily on sound quality, JVC will soon launch the noise-canceling HA-NC250 headphones.
JVC claims the most recent addition to its headphone portfolio, the HA-NC250, will eliminate up to 85 percent of background noise with its noise-canceling technology. To further block noise, each earpiece employs a double housing structure for an extra sound insulation layer, and the ear pads also attach to the housing. The new headphones also use a 40mm neodymium driver in each earpiece.
While focusing primarily on sound quality, the HA-NC250 weighs in at only 5.3 ounces. Included with the headphones are a slim carrying case, a four-foot detachable cord, airline dual plug adapter, and a 1/4-inch plug adapter for use with many home audio and video components.
The headphones use a single AAA battery for powering the noise cancellation circuitry, and JVC claims the battery will last about 50 hours.
The JVC HA-NC250 headphones will be available in early August for $200.
