The DS-321D headphones from Digital Silence



DIGITAL SILENCETM UNVEILS ITS FIRST DIGITAL ACTIVE
NOISE-CANCELLING HEADPHONES
 
Unprecedented sound quality and ease of use on the go
Edinburgh, UK, 6 October 2011 –Digital SilenceTM has today launched the DS-321D, a state-of-the-art pair of stylish in-ear digital active ambient noise-cancelling stereo headphones with voice microphone, perfect for the busy professional on the go. Developed by audio and noise cancellation technology specialist Wolfson Microelectronics plc, the DS-321D combines Wolfson’s class-leading myZoneTM digital active Ambient Noise Cancellation (ANC) with HD-quality music playback for crystal-clear tunes and talk on the move. The DS-321D will be available from leading high street and online outlets late October priced at £69.99 and will be available in black or white.  
The DS-321D headphones have been designed specifically for mobile phone users, allowing for a hassle-free daily commute, business trip or lunchtime visit to the shops. Boasting Wolfson’s myZone™ digital ANC technology, the intrusive sounds of commuter trains, public address announcements or street traffic will be a thing of the past. With high quality speakers and microphones, music can be enjoyed just as the producer intended and calls will be a breeze for both the recipient and caller with the highly sensitive on-cord voice microphone. Since the DS-321D uses active ambient noise-cancelling technology, the user is spared the experience of “blocked ears”: reverberation of speech inside the head which is typically experienced in headphones with high levels of passive noise isolation. As such, the user experiences crystal-clear, natural-sounding telephone conversations. 
Phone calls and music handling are a walk in the park as the stylish DS-321D headphones have a small and lightweight in-line pod with rechargeable battery and an easily-located multifunction control button, enabling users to simply answer and end phone calls and control their music playback without getting tangled up in wires.
When that all-important phone call or text message does come in, music lovers need not worry about its effect on sound. Working buzz-free with the phone, the DS-321D’s won’t crackle and pop like some other headphones. And, if travelling to work really is a big part of your day, a behind-the-neck wearing style and soft ear buds, included in three sizes, will ensure maximum comfort and usability.
A truly fuss-free experience, a handy LED status indicator tells the user when the battery needs recharging. The ANC function can be switched on and off at the touch of a button, and if users do find that they’ve used all 14 hours of playback time, the headphones will still work in passive mode until the battery is recharged.  A useful Monitor function allows the user to mute the ANC and playback audio briefly if required.
A 3.5mm 4-pole audio connector makes the DS-321D ideal for maximum compatibility with devices from Apple, Motorola, HTC and Blackberry. An adaptor is also included to ensure compatibility with Nokia, Sony Ericsson, Samsung and other devices.
Kevin Carey, Business Development Manager at Wolfson Microelectronics, commented: “The launch of the new Digital SilenceTM DS-321D headphones is extremely exciting for Wolfson. The DS-321D delivers a great music and call experience, incorporating leading-edge digital ANC in a superb value package.  
“With the smartphone now becoming the one and only device for an array of commuter and business needs, the demand for multi-use headphones has increased. We are proud of our heritage in outstanding audio and excited to be providing a high-quality product that is ideal for both professionals and music lovers on the move.” 
These are prefect for anyone especially j who as the modern teen is always on some electronic device listening to music I don't understand.






So if J does get that all important call from the England squad calling him up after being selected for the Derbyshire County Rugby squad the muting facility is just great. We were sent the black headphones for review and they do come in white as well so you can match them to your appliance. A quality set of headphones that will stand the test of time. They also come with three sets of ear fittings just in case you really do have big ears!.


I think its so cool that  the rechargeable noise cancelling pod which is charged via USB and delivers 14 hours of blissfully uninterrupted music (just read above). There’s none of the popping, hissing and  whizzing , grrrring ,buzzing that can occur with noise cancelling technology; all in all producing a really natural sound that doesn’t sound in any way altered.  And a quarter of the price of Mr T noise cancelling OTHER MAKE headphones, I think they are good value.
