Reduce up to 98.2% of ambient sound
Digital Noise Canceling Technology
Immerse yourself in music with a more precise method for noise canceling. Reducing up to 98.2% of ambient noise, the NC200D allows you to listen to only what you want to hear-great music in a peaceful environment.
How it Works
The MDR-NC200D headphones have an inside microphone on each earpiece that captures the exterior sound waves and works together with internal circuitry to create an opposite sound wave. Ambient sound is reduced by synthesizing with a sound in the opposite phase produced by the noise canceling circuit resulting in rich sounds and optimal noise canceling for a more enjoyable listening environment.
Synthesizing with a sound in the opposite phase for ambient sound reduction
Intelligent Auto-Selection
Experience noise canceling optimization with the Artificial Intelligence button. Because not all ambient noise is the same, when pressed, the Artificial Intelligence button will automatically select the optimal noise canceling mode based on intelligent analysis of environmental ambient noise.
Noise canceling intelligence that is optimized for your environment
Monitor Button Stay aware of your surroundings by using the monitor button to listen to announcements, flight attendants, or any other external sound without taking the headphones off.
Passive Listening Enjoy audio listening even when the power is turned off. You can save the battery if you are already in a quiet environment, or should your battery run out mid-flight and do not have a spare, you will still be able to listen to your music without the noise canceling activated.
Long Battery Life Experience your music longer with just one AAA battery. Compact and highly portable, the NC200D headphones are ready to last up to 22 hours of noise-free listening enjoyment.
Soft on-ear design allows for comfortable wear
Comfort Enjoy comfort while listening to your music. The lightweight, super soft on-ear design allows for comfortable wearing over long periods of time. Perfect for traveling, the ergonomically shaped flexible earpads and adjustable headband allow for a proper fit, making them a great companion on long flights.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
Sony MDR-NC200D Digital Noise-Canceling HeadphonesThe obvious comparison for any noise canceling headphones, is against the Bose Quiet Comfort series - which is arguably the industry standard, at least from a familiarity and brand recognition perspective. Fortunately, I have a pair of Bose Quiet Comfort 2 and was able to do a good side-by-side comparison.
In my case, Sony edged out Bose and won this comparison. Here's why:I am not a qualified audiophile, and can't quote impressive specifications and explain in mathematics why one thing sounds better than another. Having confessed that though, I am a very picky listener, and I have a high standard of quality for audio products.
How I tested - I used the Sony MDR-NC200D's extensively in a number of environments, with a variety of music. Environments included sitting in a room with a loud TV going, other music playing, conversations taking place, outdoor traffic and lawnmower noise, and even during a long vacuuming session. Music ranged from hard rock to classical, but for my benchmark side-by-side testing I used Pink Floyd's Dark Side Of The Moon.I found the Sony headphones to be superior in producing very clear, crisp sound compared to Bose. The most subtle of elements in the audio are crystal clear with very good separation. Bose seems to muddy some of these nuisances, most likely a result of the noise canceling signal they use. Sony is able to block the ambient noise at least as well as Bose (I think slightly better) but without the side effect of dullness to the audio you are listening to. This example won't mean anything to people not familiar with the album, but during "Great Gig In The Sky" you can clearly hear the soft spoken background words far better with the Sony's than with Bose. I did not try to deafen myself with too much volume, but did not experience any distortion at all.Ergonomics - Slight edge to my Bose headphones here, but very very slight and with qualifications. My Bose set is the over-the-ear design (cups that enclose the entire ear), whereas these Sony's are on-the-ear design. The slight edge to Bose goes to a marginally more comfortable headstrap, and a more secure fit. I found that the Sony headphones were a bit easier to "shake loose" if wearing them during normal activity. The flip side to this is that the Sony headphones seem better suited for longer wear. They don't apply as much pressure to you head and are more comfortable for long periods. For an on-the-ear design, I was very surprised at the quality and comfort of the fit. The padding is extremely good...
