This digital noise suppression is always active. In addition, your ClearDryve features Active Noise Cancellation (ANC), which eliminates the need to crank up the volume by canceling out ambient noise reaching your ear.

This allows you to pick the ideal settings for the specic type of music you are listening to. When you rst turn on power to your ClearDryve, the rst equalizer setting (EQ1) is active by default. You can select a different EQ setting during music playback.*
To turn ANC on or off:
