Do this headphones provide noise cancellation (pasive or active)?

These are open end headphones and do not provide much noise cancellation. That's part of the reason their sound stage is so expansive. These headphones are best listened to in a quiet environment, but they sound oh, so fantastic!

Not really. It's on the large side, and it's not noise canceling. They're open headphones, so people around you will hear what you're listening to if it's loud enough.

I would say about 90 percent of the outside noise is cancelled by the headphones but there is no difference when you turn on the noise canceling feature.

Not really noise cancelling. They are good and my son loves the pair I bought him....and they do cancel out a fair amount of noise but I am not sure they would be sold on that aspect.

No. The head phones only have a switch to turn on/off the noise cancelling.

The headphones have both passive and active noise cancellation. There is a switch on the headphones that allows you to turn the active noise cancellation on. However, the size, shape, and insulation of the earcups also provide a bit of passive, unpowered noise cancellation. The passive noise cancellation is passable at best; it'll cover up any low-to-medium volume background noise, but you can still hear some louder things. Hope that helps.

These headphones do not have active noise-cancellation, so in that regard their the same as every other over-the-ear headphone. However, when I'm listening to music on them or playing along with my guitar, I really don't hear any outside noise that is at the ambient level. I am impressed with the sound quality and the workmanship of these headphones, however, and really like the swivel ear cups for quick one-ear listening. Overall, for the price I paid, I'm very happy with the product. Hope this helps.

Yes they are. Some devices require you to switch on for noise cancelling, HM7000 instead is always active.

There's no active noise canceling. The cups are large and soft, so they do some small amount of noise isolation. Plus with how terribly boomy they are you'll end up overpowering most outside noise anyway, other than the cord rubbing on your clothing.

They'll block out a lot of noise, however if you're in an abnormally loud vehicle or other situation where there's a consistent droning noise you may want to look for active noise canceling headphones. If the sound you're trying to filter out is not loud and consistent active noise canceling will be useless. These headphones do _not_ feature active noise canceling but are closed back and will block out a lot of sound, such as people talking, TV in the room etc.

I don't really know what noise cancellation means, but I can tell you that I don't hear anything else when I am wearing these headphones. They are also very comfortable to wear.

Yes, but must be powered on for them to work. There is no "pass -thru" use without noise cancelling. They work fairly well.

They do not have active noise-canceling technology, but the ear cups provide noise isolation, as they block about 80% of sound. Note: I decided not to get headphones with active noise-canceling technology because I heard it uses a lot more battery life of the device to which you are listening, e.g., laptop, iPod, phone. Plus, I learned that noise-canceling technology works best on steady noise (like the noise of air conditioning) but not so well on sudden, erratic noises like talking. Good luck!

I would think not. As others have said they are not noise cancellation. If you can deal with that one problem then you are set because they are overall fantastic headphones for the price range.

there is not active noise cancellation while listening that i have noticed. i do not use the microphone function, so i cannot speak to that.

As others said, Active Noise Cancelling headsets work best to cancel out constant, low frequency noise (such as airplane humming). Office chattering is not something these headsets are designed for. Ear plugs work better in this scenario.
