Noise canceling headphones

Alien0n3arth

I just tried on noise canceling headphones. The noise canceling option works it’s amazing and i can listen to music simultaneously if I want, but it gave me some sort of unpleasant sensation like squeezing in my ears or head, it’s hard to describe it. So I decided to stay with my soft earplugs for few €. They make noises quieter but I still hear things. The only disadvantage of the earplugs is that they don’t fully cancel high pitched sounds like car brakes or tram squeak on the rails for example. Has anyone similar experience with noise canceling headphones? Do you get used to this sensation or is it only me feeling that?

  • I'm in my 60s and Autistic but never used noise cancelling headphones. Can you explain the benefits please? Also, are you listening to anything?

    I should mention I wear hearing aids which I can turn off. They are oticon which I use with a connectclup 1.1 to my android phone. Does anyone know of an android app that will do noise cancelling please?

    Noise cancelling headphones cut out all the back ground noises that upset some of us so much. 

    Sometimes I listen to music and sometimes I just let the noise cancellation block out the noise - particularly at work.

    The first time I used them in the office I felt instant physical relief as if tension and anxiety I didn’t know I had drained out of my body.
