Through test and resonance tones generated by the ear, the nuraphones (used with the nura app) create an individual hearing profile for the wearer and the music and frequencies are adjusted accordingly. Noise cancelling reduces outside sound; vented silicon pads make wearing comfortable. Battery life: approx. 30 hours (around 400 euros, nuraphone.com).
