Sorry for your noisy neighbors problem!!! I don't think that anything but industrial type earphones - like those worn in factories by heavy duty machine workers, by outdoor airport workers, etc. - would work in your case. These are very good and make it such that the noise around you is not intrusive. You will still be aware of the noises around you, but in a more mellow way. I find these great when on an airplane (the engine noise is muffled) or when in the neighborhood (the lawn mower noise, etc. is not interruptive to my listening). Good Luck!

These will not be sufficient enough for your needs. Dr Dre's will work but at $200- they break easily. Recommend that you get the ear muffs that they use at the gun range or move or call the police

yes, I would highly recomend them. You will be able to sleep on your side with them on.I use them only in the daytime around loud noise, it blocks out 75% of the volume.

They will certainly help. Most any noise reduction solutions will, earplugs, ear muffs etc. They have good noise reduction. Check the -db levels, the higher the better.

I would expect a small amount of sound and vibration to lower. Keep in mind these are just made out of painted MDF wood. The spikes on these are made out of plastic and don't have much of a proper spike on them. They spike into carpet well, but I wouldn't worry about damaging hardwood with these.If you really wanted to lower vibration transfer, look into finding a set of stands that allow you to fill the vertical section with sand.

I would definitely not recommend these plugs for sleeping. These are more or less for working and do protrude from the sides because they are equipped with a handy cord that keeps both plugs from getting lost. For you I would suggest the foam type plugs that you roll between your fingers, then insert into your ears. They eliminate both of your issues.

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.

It depends on how you define 'help', but by how you phrased the question, my guess is not really. These will help reduce the mechanical coupling path between the woofer and the surface they sit on. For example, if they're on a desk it will prevent your pens from rattling, and improve the audio experience. If you are concerned with reducing vibrations that your neighbors feel, I don't think they will be sufficient. My apartment is particularly poor for isolation, the only way I've been able to have my neighbors not hear my subwoofer is to not use a subwoofer.... Good luck!

They will work but will not be very loud. you buy an amp with higher power for better sound quality.

These would definitely help. I have the Exact same problem with the dogs next to me. I wear these earplugs constantly, day and night. I still hear the dogs, but at least the noise is tolerable. I also have 'white noise', the constant drone of a fan in the bedroom, which helps mask the noise. Great 1-2 combination to help me sleep.

No it will not help. All you will be able to hear is the back-ground noise. You will not be able to hear the people close to you. You would be better to get a device with volume control.

Yeah, it should work just fine. Your only problem is these speakers don't pick up low frequencies so things like explosions won't give you that rumble feeling.

I not sure if they would work. I recommend you ask a local phamarcist or best your audiologist.

Not necessarily. They reduce the number of decibels, but not down to zero. They should increase THE LIKELIHOOD that you will be able to sleep, especially if your wife also turns the volume down low.

Don't think so. They aren't very loud sounds either. Especially for a ckassroom.

They're not the actual noise canceling-type headphones which are more expensive, but I can use them on a plane and block out the noise and it does dull any outside noises A LOT so they should work just fine. Case in point: I play music to go to sleep with these headphones, and I slept through a burglar alarm going off in the apartment I was staying in (the cat set it off). I blame the headphones. Whoops...

Sensitive enough I guess. They are kinda small though, but if they are properly mounted it may work. See if there is something like this out there already for what you want to do.

Regardless of comfort or safety, these aren't the proper earplugs for sleeping. They are meant to filter noise (to make concerts or whatever safer). But they aren't exactly noise-blocking for sleep. You should look for some foam plugs for that sort of thing.
