About

The ATH-MSR7NC headphones combine the Hi-Res Audio technology and design features from the original ATH-MSR7 with newly developed active-noise-cancelling technology to bring you the ultimate listening experience.

These headphones are outfitted with exclusive 45-millimetre True Motion Drivers to deliver distortion-free audio reproduction with extended frequency response. A miniature microphone is incorporated into the top of each earcup to pick up ambient noise that can then be blocked by an appropriate sound-cancelling signal when the active noise-cancelling function is activated. Having the microphone on the top, instead of on the side, of the housing ensures consistent noise cancellation unaffected by the user’s head movement or by wind noise. Each earcup also has an acoustic vent, ideally positioned on the side of the housing, 90 degrees from the mic, to enhance tuning without negatively affecting sound quality. The result is consistent with Hi-Res Audio reproduction whether in active or passive noise-cancelling modes.

The ATH-MSR7NC’s highly flexible swivel design, along with its soft, memory foam earpads and headband, ensure lasting comfort even during the longest listening sessions. The headphones also come with two detachable cables: 1.2 meters (3.9 feet) standard cable and a 1.2 meter (3.9 feet) cable with in-line controls and microphone for use with smartphones. An internal 3.7V lithium polymer battery powers the active noise-cancelling function and can easily be recharged using the included USB charging cable.

You shouldn't be reading this

You should be out making the most of the public holiday. If you are reading this, it puts us in a bit of a tight spot.

For starters, it means we need to actually write something. That might not sound like much of a commitment, but that's only because you don't know how chronically lazy we are.

And on a long weekend, no less.

But on the other hand, we love sales. To a large extent, we have to. They pay the bills and allow us to spend money on things like spontaneous vacations to Singapore.
