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.

  • I've got those exact ones, they're really good and have modes to pass through sound if you want as well as noise cancelling and "normal" modes.

    They feel like they're far more expensive than they were too.

    Great for being able to focus when there's a lot of background noise as it blocks most of it out, Only thing I find is that I can get a little paranoid in busy places as you can't hear things around you in the same way.
