Headphone FAQ
Noise-canceling headphones come in either active or passive types. Technically speaking, any type of headphone can provide some passive noise reduction. That's because the materials of the headphones themselves block out some sound waves, especially those at higher frequencies. Learn more about how noise-canceling headphones work.
Ears are truly extraordinary organs, and hearing is a fascinating process. Ears pick up all the sounds around you and then translate this information into a form your brain can understand. Your sense of smell, taste and vision all involve chemical reactions, but your hearing system is based solely on physical movement. Learn more about how hearing works.
There are many ways to make and present a sound recording. The simplest method, and the one used in the earliest sound movies, is called monaural or simply mono. Mono means that all the sound is recorded onto one audio track or channel (a single spiraled groove in a record, for example, or a single magnetic track on tape), which is typically played on one speaker. Find out how surround sound works.
