Hello,
This is my first post concerning a several-years long question. I just discovered your forum. Please apologize if I misuse it in any way. And also for my broken English
I have a very good hearing !
But I have a very poor brain that’s unable to filter sounds, due to neurological issues, and that’s irritated by noise. I always have a pair of active noise reduction plugs with me. Spending some time in a restaurant is simply impossible, causing far too much fatigue.
So I’m looking for a way to reduce noises… I’ve started with simple plugs, then active noise-reducing earbuds to limit sounds, but that also suppresses any way of social contacts, of course. You hear less, but you also communicate less. However, it’s good for phone conversations, for instance.
What I’m looking for is something that could reduce as much as possible any ambient noise while keeping the person I’m listening to at a good level, without increasing it at all ! Maybe even lower it too in case the person speaks too high.
I’m thus very interested by earbuds announced to filter noises. But each of them is announced to be targeting at least moderate hearing loss… That’s not my case !
I’ve asked Sennheiser directly - they answered something generic and useless.
I’ve asked Nuheara some years ago - they answered to buy and return the product if I was not ok.
My physician encourages me in this way but has nothing to advise.
No one seems to simply tell me if a solution exists that fits my needs - and the budget is high to simply give a try.
Could someone help ?
Have an idea ?
Simply, I’d appreciate those buds to be able to stream music (for the train…) or also give a phone call.
And… I live in Europe !
Thanks to any one in advance !
Marc
