WOOX Innovations announces the Philips Fidelio NC1L on-ear headphones, a successor to the Fidelio M2L Lightning-equipped headphones featuring Active Noise Cancelling and built-in 24-bit DAC. 

Fidelio headphonesLightning connectivity also allows for a Philips first-- the Fidelio NC1L do not require a battery, as the cable provides power for both noise cancellation and DAC (as well as data) straight from the connected iDevice. 

Noise cancellation comes from what the company calls a "hybrid approach," using 4 microphones to detect background sound before converting it into silence. Meanwhile "audiophile-grade components" and "high-precision" neodymium drivers power the actual audio. 

“Following the launch of our first Lightning-enabled headphones, the Philips Fidelio M2L, we’re proud to announce another world first," WOOX says. "Now you can immerse yourself in authentic sound without distraction, no matter how long your journey.”
