DOES THIS BLOCK VERY LOW DEEP NOISES?

If my husband has the stereo too loud in the next room I can still hear the bass tones. This machine reduces noise but doesn't block out noise. I live on a busy street and it greatly reduces street noises.

It certainly masks them, although the effectiveness depends on a number of factors. The placement of the sound conditioner, the volume level, the tone (bass vs. treble), and, of course, the volume level and proximity of the low deep frequency noise. I currently have two of these units, as well as 4 different models, including the original one I purchased in 1990 - it is used every night. They are the finest sound conditioners money can buy and they last and last.

I believe it would. I use it to block noise from outside, and the sound of television or music downstairs. It works great for me. You can adjust the sound to be either a higher or deeper sound so I would think it would work to block out a low deep noise. I love it and bring it everywhere I go!

I would have to know what the noise is and how loud it is. The Marsona does allow for a bass/treble noise adjustment, as well as volume. It is also important to put the Marsona between you and the source. Given the price/benefit ratio, I would be inclined to try it and see if you can find a setting that will help you sleep well. Keep in mind, I am a long term Marsona customer. I have no conflict of interest.

My tinnitus is high-pitched. While the T noise isn't blocked, the Marsona provides a distraction - something else for me to listen to besides the sound in my head. I think it would provide the same sort of a distraction for a low-pitched noise. But it wouldn't block it. Hope that helps.

It definitely lessens them, but I doubt anything practical will completely block low deep noises, since these tend to pass through almost any barrier. Regardless, this is the best sound machine that I know of. The company also provides excellent service - twice sending me a new one when one of the two I recently bought had a problem. I've also bought several other models from them over the last 20 years or so for a variety of situations.

I wouldn't say these suppress exterior noise by much. I bought these because we have 3 people in our house that work evenings, and my wife can listen to the TV without disturbing anyone. She says she can hear the dishwasher a very small amount while wearing them. Just testing them myself some has to really direct their voice to you to be disruptive. A side note.....We LOVE these! The serve a great purpose and work fantastically!

it will definitely muffle and reduce the transmission of sound, but not completely. also it's not really meant for that purpose, it's primarily meant to go inside the walls

Absolutely. Best background noise blocker I've ever had. Blocks out work noise, my four year old and my new puppy. I can even use them when i vacume and hear the music over the vacume. I actually have to turn them down when i ride my bike because i can't hear cars comming up on me. Hope that helped :)

They will block out the majority of noise, but not all. But I don't know of any ear plugs that will block out 100% of the noise.

Don't think anything will "block" out loud music, but these plugs will definitely help. I think they are rated at 35 or 39 decibels, so anything louder than that will get through.

I don't find that it blocks sound very well. I use it to listen to music on my smartphone while walking, and I can still hear other noise with the earphones on. They work well enough for my purpose, though. Not as good as Bose...

no! do any block out ALL the noise of a gun? They reduce the noise to a comfortable level. For the money, they are excellent!

Absolutely. There is a cut out specifically for the speaker so sound is not blocked at all. Hope this helps!

The noise cancellation is great but does not block all noises. If you are around a loud area with children or a high traffic area you will still hear some noise but not a great amount.

No it does NOT, however it blocks 80% of the external sound very well. (100% if you crank it up like I do.)

It should cancel out the noise, but they are a bit bulky. If you want to hear voices some others allow those sounds to be heard while filtering the white noise. If you don't care about voices, these are great and very affordable.

Yes if not used with the silencer, with the silencer it provides the same deepness but not as loud. I recommend using with silencer because after a while using without silencer it bothers our ears specially driving home after a tiring shift at work

No, it. Really blocks out background sounds and fits tight over ear so no one heard what you are listening too.

Yes. Also, they block out background noise well, so you may be able to hear well even at a low volume.

Yes, but be sure you install it high enough so that it does not block the teensy speaker at the bottom left front of the case, or people will tell you that you sound like you are talking underwater.

yes they should. they do not block sound, they reduce it to safe levels. It should,because it work as good as any regular ear muffs.
