A passive set does not have an "anti-noise" feature, so it does not require a battery, and only use a seal around the ear (for cans) or in the ear (earbuds) to cancel the noise. Active noise canceling headphones are the ones that need a battery to use the anti-noise feature. I don't know about feeling extra pressure on your eardrums, but I can hear the anti-noise, and that might be what is causing the pain (who likes hearing an unchanging high-piched whining while listening to music?). I guess it means that you can hear to a higher frequency than most people if you can hear that, so it is kind of a good thing if you look at it that way.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[spil]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 9th 2007 5:31PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on JVC's HA-NCX77 in-ear noise-cancelling headphones...
