Pure ANC is an improved noise cancellation feature that is available on Beats headphones. It claims to reduce distortion in noisy environments like the train station that is crowded or a crowded office. We tried the feature on an assortment of music from a variety of genres and it was capable of reducing distracting noises to a light whooshing that didn't cause irritation to the ears. However, we discovered that the sound of cars passing by did not disappear, and the reverberation from the subway tunnel was present.
