To me it feels like pressure or a vacuum. I don’t know enough about physics is it just that active noise cancelling is increasing the total stimulus to your eardrum and it just sounds better because they cancel each other out but physically it’s still more soundwaves to absorb.
I only use active when I vacuum pretty much. Sometimes if the kids are really loud or there’s some obnoxious background noise
- mattmaroon 4y agoNo, it’s the opposite actually, when it works. Sound is just a pressure wave traveling through air. By outputting a diametrically opposed sound wave, you’re zeroing out the pressure. Noise canceling, when it works, lessening the pressure hitting your ear. If it really want to learn more, just look up YouTube videos on destructive interference. The problem is that it isn’t always able to do that perfectly so it could situationally increase the decibels for very short times.
