My Bose QC20 from 4 years ago have a specific function for this in their noise cancellation (so eg you can ear and talk with the flight attendant for your food, while still having strong noise cancellation of other things like plane engine noise).
So not only what you're talking about is entirely possible, you can also have it done by type/frequency of noises.
- Waterluvian 7y agoCertainly knew it was possible but I didn't know if it was on the market. That's really cool and I'll check it out. Not sure I want to attenuate different frequencies as much as I just want to reduce the volume of my kids.
- nolok 7y agoIf you check the QC20 (3.5 jack) or the QC30 (bluetooth) on google images, the side button on the remote/control pad switches between full cancellation and "cancel everything but voices".
- Skunkleton 7y agoMy Sony MDR-1000Xs do the same thing. Also if you hold your hand over the ear piece, it temporarily puts it in passthrough mode so you can talk to people without removing your headphones.
