Shannon's Journal Discussion Volume 3

Hi Shannon, just a quick question on a new headset im looking at, it has noise cancelling but i think its a button to turn it on so as long as thats not on shouldnt be an issue, its called logitech g533 headset. It is wireless and is more of a gaming set but it also has 20000 hz so it would work for the subliminals, it does mention it has lossless digital audio.

Can you suggest if this is going to be a good headset to use with your products, currently im using cheap earbuds that came with the phone through my computer as my other headset broke.

Thanks.

Well generally noise cancelling isn't recommended or anything that might alter the audio with subliminals.

The other thing is the specification you're talking about is for ultrasonic, and that isn't recommended to be used on headphones anyway, only speakers. Because it's too easy to get the volume wrong on headphones, too low may reduce effectiveness, too high may damage hearing.

We can't know if the noise cancelling is actually affecting the subliminal audio in a negative way, such as perhaps being cancelled out itself. We therefore do not recommend using NC. And Ben is spot on about using the ultrasonic with headset.
