Looking for an affordable pair of noise-cancelling headphones? This dual-mic’d option could be it. Meet Aurvana Active Noise Cancelling headphones from Creative.
Aurvana Noise Cancelling Headphones
Aurvana features a simple frame that reminds me of the BOSE Quiet Comfort build. The headphones come to you from the same makers as Sound Blaster sound cards. The Singapore-based company’s Aurvana headphones boast a rounded headband and oval-shaped ear cups. The cushions are comprised of leatherette material that is lightweight and intended for all-day wear.
The over-ear cans are built to provide a solid listening experience. The soft leatherette ear cups account for great sound isolation.  Fashioned with dual-mic technology, the active noise cancelling feature is able to block out up to 87 percent of ambient noise around you.
The accompanying cable is equipped with an in-line mic and controller so users can easily navigate through their playlist as well as take calls. The controller is said to be optimized for a wide range of smartphones and tablets.
The battery life is reportedly incomparable. Aurvana is able to run for up to 40 hours with active noise cancelling technology turned on. By the way, this is achieved by employing a single AAA battery. This tiny source of power is stored in the right ear cup.
For those into the specs, these headphones use 40mm neodynamic drivers to produce a sound resonating across a frequency range of 20-20,000 Hertz.
Aurvana Active Noise Cancelling headphones can be purchased via Creative.com for $129.99.
