Will my music files play in mono through the ANC-700?
The ANC-700 is not capable of converting a stereo or multichannel signal into mono. Mono, monophonic, or monaural, describes a recording where all the audio signals (typically a left and right signal) are mixed together and routed through a single audio channel. In the case of the ANC-700, this must be done before the signal arrives at the headsets single earphone, otherwise you will hear only the left channel side of the audio. Windows XP has the ability to convert a stereo playback signal to mono, but this feature was dropped in later versions of Windows.
