Noise cancellation filters out sounds that you don’t want to hear, but they absolutely do not do anything to the high energy pressure waves that cause hearing damage and permanent loss.

Is that right? I mean, a 20db reduction is a 20db reduction regardless of whether it's done through passively dampening the pressure wave or actively cancelling it electronically, right?
