Noise cancelling headphones for silence, not music

Deleted User

I've tried earplugs and for various reasons, I think that headphones would be best.

I've searched here and on Amazon but a point of confusion for me is that I don't want to replace one lot of noise with another ie music.

I want silence.

So, with regard to these, for example, would they work ok for that:

Or are there any other ideas at a budget of below £50?

Many thanks.

  • So I can see you've written a budget of below £50 so feel free to ignore this. I use my airpods pro 2nd gen. You can wear them without music and they have two settings, one where you can hear the background noise and the other where you can't. However I will say I do have bilateral hearing loss so they may not work as well as they do for someone who has full hearing ability, but they have helped me so so much and if you have the money to spend on them or if you can save up you definitely should. 

    I hope someone is able to help you.
