Okay, on the basis that the only dumb question is the one unasked, here
goes...

When talking headsets, I know that ANR means Automatic Noise Reduction. But
does that mean it reduces the noise I hear or the noise I transmit?

Ken

The ANR stands for Active Noise Reduction as apposed to Passive Noise
Reduction. I also see it listed some times as ENR for Electronic Noise
reduction. The specifications usually add ANR and PNR together for their
rating. The ANR samples noise inside the head phone and creates a negative
sound wave that reduces the sound heard by the ear. Most good headsets also
have noise canceling microphones that reduce the noise that is transmitted
but that is a different headphone specification.

I have a ANR system sold by Headsets Inc. that I retro fitted to my old
headphones.

Hope that helps

ANR suppresses the noise you hear.
