Default Noise Canceling Headphones

Hello.

Does anyone find noise canceling headphones helpful?

Any specific brand?

One thing that is an issue is weight. Do they cause an increase in headaches?

Any information would be helpful. Thank you!

I have the bose noise cancelling headphones. They are a great crutch and make it possible for me to do more. I highly recommend them for folks dealing with PCS. I do notice the strap pressing down on my head, but it hasn't given me headaches. Of course, I've been lucky with minimal headaches to begin with.

we have them too....and I don't use them with music on...just put them on. It doesn't block out that much...but if you put your ipod on it will.

They're expensive..but they are supposedly the best brand

I just got a $100 pair of Sony ones that plug into the computer, but I wear glasses- and they push the ears into the glasses frames...

I should've looked for noise cancelling earplugs online. Guess I can trade these in for store credit. I forgot about the pressure they might put on the head as well...
