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.
Lightning 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.
