Sound Isolating Technology
The i4c’s in ear design works like an earplug to block background noise naturally. This enables you to listen comfortably at lower volumes-even in loud environments. And unlike bulky headphones utilizing active noise cancellation technology, no artifacts are introduced into your listening experience. Sound isolating earphones are also much smaller and don’t require batteries. Outside noise is reduced by 30-37 dB, so no matter how noisy it gets on the train or at the airport, you can always hear your music-OR your conversation.
Speaker Type: High-Definition Driver with Tuned Port Technology
The i4c features the same High-Definition Drivers with Tuned Port Technology as our award-winning E4c model-for incredible audio reproduction, complete with brilliant highs. Additionally, i4c’s Tuned Port Technology improves airflow around the driver to deliver professional-grade sound with extended bass response. (See technical specs)
VoicePort Inline Microphone
The VoicePort Inline Microphone is acoustically tuned to filter out background noise and minimize wind noise-ensuring that callers hear you clearly even in the noisiest situations.
