Do noise canceling headphones block out voices?

Headphones like the Sennheiser PXC550-II Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones

can certainly help to reduce the sound of voices in a busy office, but they won’t eliminate them altogether. Noise-cancelling headphones generally work best by helping to reduce the sound of constant, similarly-pitched noises such as those from aircraft engines, air-conditioners and other machinery.

What's the difference between noise-cancelling and active noise Cancelling?

Noise-cancelling headphones are simply any pair of headphones that helps to reduce the level of audible outside sounds by due to their sealed design which blocks outside noise.

Closed-back headphones such as the Focal Celestee High-Fidelity Reference Closed-Back Dynamic Headphones or in-ear monitors like the Astell&Kern UW100 True Wireless Earphones

can substantially reduce outside noise thanks to their ability to physically block outside noise from entering your ears.

Active Noise-canceling headphones like the Bowers & Wilkins PX7 Over-Ear Noise Canceling Wireless Headphones

help reduce audible outside sounds that are picked up through their built-in microphones, by applying an “opposite” noise that helps to cancel-out that particular frequency with the help of digital signal processing.

What Are Noise Canceling Headphones?

Noise cancelling headphones help to reduce ambient environmental noise through a digital process called active noise cancellation. Small microphones in each side of the headphones identify outside noise, and produce an exact opposite signal to help “cancel out” that noise. Noise cancelling headphones such as the FiiO EH3NC Noise Canelling Headphones can be especially useful in environments where there are constant, similar-range audible frequencies such as airplanes, air-conditioners, or other mechanical noises.
