NC2

I've had my super-budget TOZO NC-2s for nearly 5 years now and they only cost me $35! They aren't the most flashy thing, but I can comfortably wear them for a couple of hours and they perform flawlessly, they even have ANC - which is invaluable to me since I work in aviation. But keep in mind, there are no personal electronic devices made today that you can really call BIFL. Sure there are some that last long - I think I've seen people with iPod nanos still kicking around - but you aren't going to get "forever" out of anything you buy today, I think.

Good to know, I might go for it. These guys just wont die on me and I've abused them thoroughly. I've been a regular Galaxy phone owner (usually a model or two behind) so buying a pair might be worth it when and if my TOZOs finally take a shit.

I was rocking Tozo NC2's for years and was surprised at how good the ANC and sound quality is. Goes to show that some great $50~70 buds can somewhat compete with the $150 heavyweights

I honestly like the tozo NC2 series, cheap and does a great job I don't hear a gas powered backpack blower when I am operating it at work while listening to music

I run a 6 head moulder all day in a cabinet shop and use TOZO NC2 earbuds- theyre like $30 on amazon and the noise cancellation works well enough that I never have any ringing at all after work. I was previously very against earbuds but found that overears got too sweaty and these are actually comfy enough to wear most of the day- i’ve had them 3 years now with little issue ETA: a 6 head moulder is LOUD- like, cripplingly loud. Also run other loud equipment like a 16” straight knifed jointer- you get the picture.

I’ve used my Tozo NC2 ANC earbuds while gaming next to my kids who were also gaming, while the toddler watched Paw Patrol. My wife had to try multiple times to get my attention because I was so cut off from the outside world. They were around $40 when I bought them years ago and Tozo now has their upgraded NC9 earbuds for even cheaper. I can’t do over-the-head or on-ear headphones due to migraines.
