I can't use noise cancelling headphones at all, they make me feel ill and unbalanced. Agree with one of the posters above that the lawn mower could be a culprit. You should use industrial ear muffs for ear protection and not noise cancelling headphones. Give your ears a rest and hopefully...

I'm thinking that maybe because of the noise-cancelling headphones. Even though the spike began before using them. I used them for 2 or 3 days and I felt very good... I don't know what to believe anymore.

Noise cancelling headphones seem to provide a little more noise reduction. They are also more comfortable - after wearing them for many hours, you won't feel like your head is in a vice (something even the best muffs will likely do after a couple of hours). Of course I understand where you are...

Nice headphones @aura :) Good article too: “Passive noise cancellation can lessen mid to high-frequency noises by about 15dB to 30dB.” So contrary to many people’s beliefs they do an okay job on middle frequency and a decent job on the highest! Depending on whether they sit sealed around your...

I used earmuffs.

I use noise cancelling headphones with quiet music on it.

...noise-cancelling headphones. It isn't clear why this might be happening, but data (even biased data?) trumps theory. I own Bose noise cancelling headphones. I wear them in airplanes and on a highway in a car. I make sure to wear foam earplugs underneath, and thus far I haven't had any...

I can't get noise cancelling earplugs anymore, my MRI begins soon. :(

I am in the U.S...

...me, no major issues on the tinnitus front. The front of the plane will generally be quieter. I carry some musicians earplugs and top of the line noise cancelling headphones with me. I thought I’d have more trouble with business lunches and dinners too, but that has been ok. Wishing you well...

There are only a few headphones that will reproduce the 2.8 MHz harmonic. The best is the Koss KTX-PRO1 and they are dirt cheap at $19. Another one is the earbuds by 1MORE brand called Triple Drivers. And then there is the Bose noise-cancelling headphones at $350.

Do you have a source? I can certainly represent that with noise canceling headphones on I can listen at much lower volumes so I am skeptical of such claims. Moreover, not providing protection and causing harm are different. Noise-canceling headphones can help prevent hearing loss, if you use...

Yes they do! And are very good at that. Perfect for plane trips. http://en-us.sennheiser.com/professional-dj-headphones-noise-cancelling-hd-280-pro Up to 32 dB of ambient noise attenuation other good ones, more expensive...

Hi all, Just a tip that might help somebody. I have a set of aviation headsets that have noise cancelling built into them. Unfortunately these only cancel out noise coming from outside the ear, not inside - if I manage to invent a pair that do that rest assured I shall give them away for a...

Yes, NC headphones should work well for these kinds of noises. I use mine on planes. They work quite effectively.

Can I ask which headphones you use? Do you wear the headphones on top of the musician's earplugs? Thank you~

Many people develop tinnitus after wearing noise cancelling headphones. I wear earplugs underneath my noise cancelling headphones (that I wear whenever I fly), those earplugs protect me from the headphones. I think your ears got hurt by the headphones and not as a result of you not taking the...

Hi Candy, I took a few flights since tinnitus onset and always had in foam earplugs and noise cancelling headphones. On my Airbus flight that was complete overkill, I agree with @Bill Bauer there. Maybe bring both and see how you feel.

Yes, they are noise-cancelling earmuffs. Sony WH1000XM4. "They are ineffective at high pitch noises and sudden transient noises but are effective for low frequencies like noise from engines, generators, appliances, etc". The problem is that I feel much better with them than with my Peltors and...

Maybe these? Decent Passive and Active Noise Cancelling http://www.noisebuster.net/product/PA4000.html

So you are supposed to ask if the drills are air powered or electric? So noise cancelling headphones reduce the noise a bit? I don't recall reading this until now.

They are worse because there have been some posts here of people who think that they got T as a result of active noise cancelling headphones. This is why I would never wear noise cancelling headphones without earplugs. Earplugs dampen all incoming waves. So if there are waves produced by the...

Noise cancelling headphones have a software lag that can cause the inverted waveform to not match up perfectly with higher frequency sounds that can actually add them instead of cancelling them out. In this animation the two top waves amplitudes sum up and the bottom one is the result...

I thank you both for the warning. I'm trying my best to be active and not put my ears at risk. I vacuum, use power tools with noise cancelling headphones and when I go to the movie, I wear custom musician earplugs. Even at the gym when some dumb kids drop plates I put earplugs in, you don't want...

So wearing a good noise cancelling headphone on flights is recommended?

Fair shake of the sauce bottle, mate. I have Bose Noise Cancelling headphones and while they are amazing, comparing them to either custom plugs or correctly inserted earplugs is the difference between night and day as far as hearing protection goes.

Hi Bill, Thank you for your response. Is it still bad if you use the noise cancelling headphones with them turned off? In other words, I put them on but do not turn them on. Just use them to dampen the annoying sound. If this still presents a problem for tinnitus I will discontinue and...

Ohh, would cutting out all noise be a bad thing?? :/

Thanks for your reply. Very helpful. Would noise cancelling headphones help?:)

My audiologist suggested using noise cancelling over ear headphones over in ear headphones

...doctors (GP, ENT, oto-neurologists) and even audiologists. Results : they did not even know the existence of such a device. Edit : tinnitus cancelling device don't exist (only white noise masking), but since noise cancelling device exist in industrial (noisy) sites, this question remains...

I would get a spike despite wearing earplugs. I began wearing Peltor muffs. I would still get a spike, but not as big as before. I will now try wearing my Bose noise-cancelling headphones. Thank you for sharing your experience.

noise cancelling bose headphones are the best for such travels , trust me

It's just fucking crazy. I can't believe what we have to deal with. Hope you feel better soon.

I bought the Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones this week and the noise cancelling is amazing, plus they are super comfortable. Sony have brought out a new version which are better again albeit more expensive. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sony-WH-1000XM4-Cancelling-Wireless-Headphones-Black/dp/B08C7KG5LP

Bose noise cancelling headphones eliminate low-frequencies similar to the hum you hear inside of an airplane cabin. This allows you to play your music at a lower volume. You can also use them to reduce the noise, and not to listen to music. === Thank you for the information, LadyDi!

Although they're expensive, my Bose nose noise cancelling headphones do an amazing job of eliminating road noise. I only use them on long drives.

Joined the forum for this thread. I "upgraded" from Bose AE wireless 2 head phones to the QC35s. These are really nice noise cancelling headphones. I got a severe head cold a week ago and used my noise cancelling headphones listening to music for a few hours continuously. Afterwards, I had...

Yes they were noise cancelling earphones. I didn’t and still do not have vertigo or balance issues.

I suspect the noise cancelling caused my sudden Tinnitus last week and that of others posting here. I wonder if this is because noise cancelling generates noise to cancel background sound. I notice that all those posting here had Bose headphones. I have had the 'eeee' that @subsonik described...

Sudafed is a decongestant. Afrin nasal spray is good too. I'm flying Saturday too. I bring gum, earplanes, earplugs, and noise cancelling headphones. If I had a cold I'd use a decongestant. Colds make T spike, and your ears were sensitive when the ambulance went by. I highly recommend the noise...

...cars), and where / how far I'm driving. Some roads can be very noisy depending on how they are paved. I have found the Bose noise cancelling headphones to be excellent at cancelling out road noise when driving on the highway. Edit: If it's for the slim chance of airbags only, it's...

I used EarPlane plugs for 3 flights in one day and there was absolutely no problem. Honestly, with noise cancelling headphones I don't think the levels in the cabin are an issue. It's the take off and landing where you need your EarPlane plugs with earmuffs over the top.

Don't use noise cancellation headphones, they are not safe, there are people on the forum who got tinnitus from noise cancellation headphones.

Hi, could anyone possibly recommend noise cancelling headphones? I assume that they are safe for tinnitus? Thanks again...

Even at low volume bone conduction headsets can make tinnitus worse? I just bought some in hopes I could use them for masking as my tinnitus is brutal.

First of all, I was going to use EarPlanes earplugs under Bose noise-cancelling headphones, not just regular earplugs. Sorry about the confusion. It is also not very clear to me how Bose headphones could be bad for the ears. Search for "cancelling headphones" (with quotation marks) and you...

@JohnFox @Deb2019 I always wear earplugs underneath my Bose 25 noise cancelling headphones. The function of the earplugs is to protect one from the noise cancelling headphones. In theory, NC headphones reduce the intensity of the sound waves reaching one's ear. However, a number of people on...

Does the above include noise cancelling headphones like the ones sold by Bose?

Thank you for your answers. My question might sound stupid but are there headphones that protect from noise while not being actively "noise cancelling"?

@billie48 thanks for your reply, will any noise cancelling headphones do?

...luck. Many of the planes in Europe are made by Airbus and those aircraft are much quieter than Boeing planes. You will want to wear noise cancelling headphones (e.g., Bose Q35) - they work great in reducing the noise inside of an airplane. A small fraction of the users of noise cancelling...

Glue cannot be removed by laser sadly, it's stronger than teeth.

...by 10 second pauses. Look into whether that glue could be removed using a laser. You should try it both with and without your noise cancelling headphones. I bet you will conclude that it makes no difference. I would choose Peltor muffs over noise cancelling headphones, but even that would...

These muffs are similar to the ones that those guys outside of the plane have: https://www.amazon.com/3M-Peltor-Over-Earmuffs-X5A/dp/B00CPCHBCQ I will be receiving my pair later this week. I am worried that they may not be as comfortable as the expensive Bose noise cancelling headphones.

Hi does noise cancelling headphones able to equalize pressure during take ascending and descending?

I don't play any music on them. Just cancelling noise, used them for 3 hours.

This points something I've been wondering about: has anyone found a safe way to listen to podcasts while jogging? Doing so was one of my consistent pleasures before my acoustic trauma, and I'm both terrified to cause further damage and also searching for some way to accompany myself on my long runs.
