Abstract:
A noise-cancelling headphone is provided that prevents degradation in the sound quality of the sound output from the driver unit caused by the sounds leaking through the vent hole for adjusting the sound quality. The noise-cancelling headphone includes a housing unit having an interior and an exterior, a driver unit attached to the housing unit, and a microphone collecting sound at the exterior of the housing unit. The housing unit includes an accommodating portion accommodating the microphone and a vent hole establishing communication between an air chamber behind the driver unit and the exterior of the housing unit. The housing unit is constructed such that emitted sounds from the vent hole are prevented from being collected by the microphone.
