ANC never cancels out the sounds I want it to. It does great at eliminating the constant hums and thrums that weren't bothering me in the first place but does nothing for the roar of engines, motors, the wind, saws, tools, etc. "Make it so I can't tell whether my house's AC is on" is not really my use case.
- Reason077 5y agoIn my experience (Sony XM4s), while it doesn't eliminate such noises if they're loud enough, it will still significantly reduce their volume to less annoying levels. Quieter-but-still-annoying volume levels, such as overflying aircraft or loud traffic heard through closed windows, are typically reduced to the point where they're unnoticeable.
