At that point high-end super cars can have quieter cabins without a need for sound insulation (which most don't use too much of for weight concerns).<br><br>Heck, if they make retrofit kits after road/wind noise cancelling systems are built and become relatively commonplace, then I'd guess they'd become increadibly popular amoungst the car modding set as removal of sound insulation for weight reduction and the addition of odd little bits of decorative fibreglass would increase road/wind-noise in the cabin.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Maikeru]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:47AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Noise cancelling Honda cabins]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2004/11/22/noise-cancelling-honda-cabins/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2004/11/22/noise-cancelling-honda-cabins/</guid><description><![CDATA[Now - if this technology could silence the sound of two screaming children - I'm buying the first one off the lot!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Chris]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:47AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Noise cancelling Honda cabins]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2004/11/22/noise-cancelling-honda-cabins/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2004/11/22/noise-cancelling-honda-cabins/</guid><description><![CDATA[How about a child noise cancelling device? ;D]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Elliott]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:47AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Noise cancelling Honda cabins]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2004/11/22/noise-cancelling-honda-cabins/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2004/11/22/noise-cancelling-honda-cabins/</guid><description><![CDATA[Sounds like a great device, however there would be some concern if it also canceled out sirens.

And wind noise is a good clue it's windy and you should maybe slow down and drive more carefully. Seems like a bad idea to me.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Brian L.

Sirens and other noises will still make it though, although they may sound clipped. I've used a pair of ANC headphone on a plane and while the background noises were filtered out, I could hear the flight attendant (and screaming babies) perfectly.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[David]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:47AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Noise cancelling Honda cabins]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2004/11/22/noise-cancelling-honda-cabins/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2004/11/22/noise-cancelling-honda-cabins/</guid><description><![CDATA[Um, cars already have these.

The dealer did not know anything about it, so my questions went unanswered.  However, the Honda web page maintains that it is in there (in the EXL and touring models) but does not offer much in the way of information about this device.  The engine is very quiet, but there is no risk that you can't tell if something is wrong or if a siren were in the vacinity.  This type of noise is still audible and is not drowned out by the ANC.  However, I can assure you (as my kids were sitting in the back seat during the test drive), this product does not eliminate their noise.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[kevin cain]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:47AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Noise cancelling Honda cabins]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2004/11/22/noise-cancelling-honda-cabins/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2004/11/22/noise-cancelling-honda-cabins/</guid><description><![CDATA[Hey,<br>  What about ANC for the home.  We live near a noisy road.  I'd like to be able to "cancel" or filter out some of the road, engine, motorcycle, etc., noise out of my music.<br>  Also that idiot's leafblower, and his dog and, and, and...<br>Thanks for listening.<br>Steve Cobb]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Steve Cobb]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:47AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
