Would these block out traffic noise and loud music from neighbors parties?

No. The "active" noise canceling is very minimal. Good pair of earphones, though.

Not 100%. But it depends on the distance and noise level. I would say 80% of the noise is blocked. It is worth the price.
1991831
I would not recommand these for noise cancelling because when you turn it on it not even block out any noise around you.
1991832
not likely. Some work to reduce or block certain types of noise. Such as airplane engine noise, but not loud music.

These would certainly help, especially for more distant noises. While I used them on a 9 hour plane flight, I could hear certain sounds. All in all a good value for your money.

Your question is too subjective. For the price, these headphones tend to work well enough for their intended purpose. I enjoy using them very much and are better than some I haved purchased in the past at a higher price. I do recommend these.

They block out ambient noise well but are not noise cancelling. At best, you might consider these "noise isolating".

I have used them successfully to block off noise from heavy stompers living above me but they have carpets. I would think it would work because it also takes the edge off of street noise since my room faces the street which has a streetcar going by frequently. Sometimes they almost block too much noise because I can't hear my clock radio's music turn on so I pull them out of my ears slightly. They bring me peace and I can finally sleep soundly!

Not really thats why i bought these to dull the sound of neighbours playing loud music...they won't work alone but if you buy some of the cheap orange ear plugs and use it along with this it will work

No. They provide a substantial reduction in the level of the noise, but you can still hear things muffled.

Hi there! I used these at a NASCAR event and they were awesome, so I'm sure they would be great for blocking firework sound. ^_^

Yes. My daughter wore these to a rock concert and they blocked out a LOT of the sound. (And we were in a large arena.)

No, They make too much noise with the total surrounds that when you bump them and they move against your ears, the external noise will drown out the music.

Yes however, my neighbor's keep covering it because they can hear every setting volume across the street. Its not effective on the animals anyway. Only neighbor's.

It is canvas so it likely will not block much sound....definitely block whatever it's in front of

I don't think so. These are designed to reduce the impact of loud music, but still allow you to "talk" to the person next to you at a concert. I think you will need ear plugs that are designed to block out all noise, not just certain frequencies and volumes.

While they are not 100% leak proof. I would say they block roughly 90% of the sound to the people around you.

Yes, they would block out local conversations, but you probably would not want to wear them for that purpose since they're a little bulky and not really designed for that environment. They work best around noisy machinery such as lawn mowers, leaf blowers and similar devices. In an office environment, look for battery powered noise canceling headphones that are lightweight and comfortable -- be sure to try them on before purchasing as there are wide variations among different products!

I don't think they'd block out all sound but I think would be sufficient for most ranges. I shoot too and they certainly block out as much sound as my normal shooting muffs do. I don't use them because I normally shoot rifle and shotgun and the profile is too large and would get in the way of the gun stock. But if you're talking pistol, I would think they'd be just fine

It probably will cancel the traffic noise but the beat from the bass from the bar definitely will still vibrate through your apartment. There's little you can do about unwanted vibration except move!

Sadly, I sold my bike about a month before I bought these, so I haven't tested them in that environment. :^( However, I think these would work fine, plus these are great for any loud environment where you still need to hear people talk. Also, these would be good if you use a device like ScalaRider or Chatterbox. Earasers do have another product called "Peace and Quiet" that seem to block more sound and may be better for highway speeds on a motorcycle, though.

Yes, they absorb sound. It won't be completely sound proof but it surely will dampen noise.
