Ear defenders / noise cancelling headphones

Billy87

I'm looking to invest in some ear defenders or noise cancelling headphones as my tolerance for loud noises has really gone down lately.

Would I have to buy autism specialist ones or would the normal builders type ones from b and q work?

  • Hi, I use Soundcore Q20 noise cancelling ear phones. Can be used just on noise cancelling or obviously link to an iPhone or other to listen to music, I use mine at night to listen to audiobooks. They are about £50 but I think there is a 15% voucher on Amazon at the moment. You can go up to £200 for Bose but I don’t have that budget. Very impressed with the Soundcore and good write ups. You can wear them in public and don’t look out of place.

    I dont think I can afford them at the moment, money is quite tight. I am looking to have them more for around the house, my toddler screams so loud when he is having a meltdown or upset about something and I feel I could be much more able to help him if I wasnt getting so destressed by the noise 

    Do you think ordinary builders ones from B and Q would work?
