David and Renee Dillinger, husband and wife, got their start over four years ago designing disposable blankets to sell to airlines. This venture led to David and Renee developing a new idea, noise canceling headphones, which was also based off the couple‘s careers in the airline industry. David being a pilot, Renee a flight attendant.

At the time, there was primarily one noise-canceling headphone on the market, priced at $300 a set. Mr. Dillinger, who has a B.S. in electrical engineering and a B.S. in computer science from the University of Pittsburgh, designed a better and less expensive version. He found international manufacturers in Asia willing to produce the units using his design and patented proprietary algorithms.
