Playing music at a low volume also won't block out background noise.
- ivank 7y agoblocking/masking noise at safe volume levels is very much possible with in-ear monitors and Comply Isolation tips
- catalogia 7y agoYMMV. For me, background noise in general isn't the issue. Rather the issue is specifically people talking, because my mind begins following their conversation. If I can render their voice unintelligible then it won't distract me. Low volume music often works for this.
- baroffoos 7y agoNC headphones will though.
- mancerayder 7y agoNot so much. They blow low frequencies, but not conversation or even music on the subway.
- cthaeh 7y agoAs someone with tinnitus, it is so much worse than background noise. Now I love background noise because it's the only way I can escape tennitus (I hate headphones)
- coldtea 7y agoUnless you work at a construction site, it will to a very good extent. Do you really need to drown office noise completely through maxed out music?

- e40 7y agoThen get some noise canceling headphones, over the ear, and that will take care of the background noise.
- cellularmitosis 7y agoBetter isolation will allow you to lower the volume. Etymotic ER4XR are my current go-to.
