"ANC"


"I'm currently using Jabra Elites that are honestly great ... earbuds allow just enough noise I can hear other people talking to me and hear the hum of my machines but still reduce my overall noise load. ... I use them daily around 100-115dB worth of noise."

"sweat resistant hold via the type of rubber on the buds. ... Water/sweat proof."

"The worst shape for me are the Jabra Elite / Sony WF-1000XM5 style that stick out way far from your ears. ... Never understood why they are designed to be so far outside your ear. ... Like you could never wear them with a bike or motorcycle helmet."

Jabra Elite Actives are just all round #1 by multiple running reviewers and I have had 3 versions of them over last few years...great sound...ANC...8 hours battery in use on the latest version...sweat resistant hold via the type of rubber on the buds. Water/sweat proof. Problem is they are discontinueing the line :(

Jabra Elite maybe? I have the active ones for working out, I think they are solid! Jabra is Danish.

Been with various Jabra Elite Active for years. The best. So disappointed they are stopping production.

I love my Jabra elite actives. Also if you like music with heavy bass these absolutely rip. Also they’ve never fallen out of my ears while being active - they actually turn off when they’re almost accidentally wiggled loose after a long intense training sesh. Highly recommend these!

I had a pair of Jabra Elite Active’s, but one day I lost a bud while running.. After that I opted for the Soundcore X20’s. They work great for running.

r/productivityBest non-music noise cancelling headphones or earmuffs?
11 months ago

I struggle with the same. I have tried ear plugs under ANC headphones, but even the most blocking plugs (35 dB is the highest I have found here), and an expensive headphone, do not block all sound (not even my coworkers laughing and discussing). My best solution so far has been ANC earbuds under ANC headphones.. So double ANC.. I have Jabra Active Elite earbuds, and Sony quite-expensive-something headset. Even this do not give complete silence in the open office plan, but it's quite close to it. In-ear ANC plugs do a lot more for me than ANC over-the-ear headphones. The headphones alone hardly helps at all..

This is the answer. If you can get 75ts on ebay go for them! Miss mine so much after four years of heavy use (and were bought second hand anyway) they finally stopped holding a charge.
