ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Audio filter

Audio filters are like invisible walls in the air, but instead of keeping people out, they help keep certain sounds in or out of your ears. Imagine you're listening to music and there's too much bass or treble. An audio filter can block out the extra bass and treble, so only the music you want to hear is what you hear. Audio filters can also be used to block out background noise from things like lawnmowers and noisy cars.
