I cannot say anything wrt tinnitus, but I do own some aftershockz headphones as well. They're extremely interesting, mainly because they're so different but there are a few caveats... The sound quality is pretty lack lustre if you don't plug your ears somehow, especially the base is very shallow otherwise. It's a very entertaining experience when you literally plug you ears with your fingers and the sound quality as well as loudness increases, because the sound waves get reflected back by whatever you plugged your ears with. I generally use significantly more expensive headphones though, so maybe I'm just spoiled. It really doesn't cut through ambient noise in my experience, it's more like background sound unless your ears are plugged, so noisy surroundings will make it impossible to listen to the headphones as well.
