Congratulations Able Planet

Winner of the 2007 WWM Top Technology Award

Competition in the field of Noise Canceling Technology was fierce. However, Able Planet's Clear Harmony NC1000CH was the leader in all categories. Able Planet begins with the highest standard specifications for noise cancellation technology and then, embeds the AWARD WINNING LINX AUDIO TECHNOLOGY into all of their headphones. LINX AUDIO alters the audio signal creating harmonics that are not masked by low frequency sounds, but produces richer, fuller, clearer sounding tones and harmonics. LINX AUDIO was originally developed for a new generation of top-of-the-line hearing aids.

Clear Harmony Active Noise Canceling Headphones with award winning LINX AUDIO set a new standard for active noise cancellation, style, comfort and sound quality providing full rich sound for use with TV, computers, portable DVD, CD, MP3 or iPod players, assistive listening devices and other popular audio and communication devices. Their soft ear cushions and light-weight design provide superior comfort for hours of listening pleasure. The headphones fold flat inside their hard shell protective carrying case, making them ideal for home use or for travel around the world.

Clear Harmony utilizes multiple technologies to optimize sound quality, speech clarity, and reduce background noise. LINX AUDIO alters the audio signal creating harmonics that are not masked by low frequency sounds, filtering undesirable frequencies or noise, and soft clipping distortion. Additionally, state-of-the-art active noise canceling technology substantially reduces background noise further enhancing speech intelligibility. The enhanced audio signal increases the perception of loudness without increasing volume, providing full rich sound at lower volumes, which may lead listeners to turn it down with the in-line volume control to a safe listening level to preserve hearing.

Clear Harmony noise canceling headphones are a major advancement that provide full rich sound for ALL LEVELS OF HEARING. In side-by-side comparisons to leading noise canceling units; most people can hear the difference in the sound quality and clarity of LINX AUDIO.

Hear the difference. Enjoy the Difference.

LINX AUDIO

LINX AUDIO^TM Technology is Recognized by Medical Professionals and the Industry as the Leader in Superior Sound Quality, with Results that Chance Lives.

HOW IT WORKS:

Able Planet embeds their award-winning and patent-pending LINX AUDIO^TMTechnology into their Active Noise Canceling Headphones.

SOUND QUALITY AND SPEECH INTELLIGIBILITY ARE IMPACTED BY HIGH FREQUENCY SOUNDS

Hearing loss associated with age usually begins in the higher frequencies, or the "HIGH TONES." If you lose the ability to clearly hear these tones, high pitched sounds like "f", "S", and "th" will be difficult to discriminate and music may not sound as lively.

LINX AUDIO^TM creates high frequency harmonics that enhance sound quality and speech clarity of difficult to hear words or notes, and increase the perception of loudness without increasing volume.

LINX AUDIO^TM provides full rich sound and enhanced speech clarity even at lower volumes, which may lead people to turn the volume down and possibly preserve their hearing. An analogy of a richer sound might be the difference you hear when you play a "C" note on a piano, as opposed to a "C" chord. The "C" chord demonstrates the impact of adding harmonics to the audio signal.

FILTERS UNDERSIRABLE
SOUND

LINX AUDIO^TM removes undesirable sound and noise making it easier to hear high frequency words, or notes where clarity is often lost, maximizing full rich sound for music and enhancing clear voice for speech intelligibility.

REDUCES DISTORTION

Increasing volume increase all sounds, including distortion. As volume is increased, standard audio products hard clip peaks with traditional square-edge characteristics. LINX AUDIO^TM reduces, harsh sounds by soft-clipping distortion.

LINX AUDIO^TM RESTRICTS ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE

Testing has shown that LINX AUDIOreduces electromagnetic interference that creates an audible noise when communication devices are placed near a hearing aid. Unlike current hearing aid compatible technologies, LINX AUDIO does not rely upon electromagnetic couplings, which enable Able Planet products to be used with, or without hearing aids.
