JVC headphones block 80 percent of background noise

Monday March 12, 2007
JVC rolled out last week some new noise-cancelling headphones which they say significantly reduce ambient noise. The HA-NCX77 headphones are priced at around $80.

The in-ear JVC HA-NCX77 headphones reportedly cancel up to 80 percent of background noise and are designed so they provide a good fit and better ambient sound blocking. This special design sports an earpiece that’s slightly angled to offer up this better fit. Other features include sound muting for conversations with others, a single AAA battery life of around 70 hours and included accessories such as a dual plug adapter and soft carrying case.
