yes, i do understand the difference. as i use both types of headphones & they 
block out different types of noise.

what i meant was, noise cancelling headphones tend to have poor passive 
filtering.
All ear mufflers (big foam cups type) are good (passive) filtering, but 
don't have (active) noise cancelling.

since they work differently, neither is ideal for me as i want both in one.

btw, what is WTFIT?



but i want both.
