Would these headphones (with music playing) plus nrr 33 ear plugs block out a very loud dog? (beagle)

I use mine with a head phones without zero turn mower and leaf vac and they work so good that I don't hear the leaf vac running which is very loud. The music plays through the headphones with outstanding quality

Interesting question! I can't say for sure. I can't speak for the ear plugs but I would think that together they should block or drown out the sound of a loud dog. The headphones themselves reduce the sound of lawn equipment to a low muffled rumble.

The head phones, listening to Audio Books - NOT at full volume - keep my Garden Tractor mower soft - sometimes I can barely hear the mower. If I turned up the volume, I am sure it would muffle the sound completely.

That would definitely work. I sit next a drum kit which can range between 85dB and 120dB and with music playing you would hear very little. A dog can be as loud as that but I that is from a large dog. A beagle would be around 80dB at a guess. So yes they would be fine.

They will muffle the sound without ear plugs well, playing music will drown out everything around you. No earplugs needed.

Possibly, but I've only worn them while enjoying live (loud) music, and it doesn't muffle out the music, it just brings the sound level down a few decibles - enough to enjoy the music without damaging your hearing. I usually use Flents Quiet Please Foam Ear Plugs when I want drown out loud noises.

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

I agree with Steven, they will reduce ear piercing sounds to a tolerable level. Just remember the earpads are vinyl, so you may sweat a bit with extended use. For the price they will do what you need, but not completely soundproof. I would suggest a closed back noise canceling headphone, this way you can play soothing or other of your favorite music, or lectures and block the sounds you do not want to hear. Noise canceling has a microphone external, receives and inverts the sound so you hear more what comes from inside the headphone.

Yes I think they would. They are designed to block out high db levels of percussive sound. Ones that are specifically made for shooting that law enforcement uses are called EarPro or Sonic Defenders by SureFire.

I wear them in noisy bars/music venues, on planes, and sometimes car/bus. They are great at blocking out noise, esp at night. However if you are a dog-mom like me, you may still be able to hear your pup whining if he needs to go out. :)

These are not noise cancelling, they are noise isolating with the rubber piece that goes in you ear acts like ear plugs. That being said I have used these on my lawn tractor that is pretty loud and they work great I can barely hear the mower even with the music off. You will have no problem hearing the music

hmm, well I can tell you they block out noise very well, but I've never asked anyone if they can hear my music when the headphones are on. No one has ever told me that they are too loud or annoying. If you keep the volume level in the middle, then you will be fine, but if you blast it (prob not good for ears anyways), then I would think someone sitting next to you may be able to hear it. Hope that helps.

Not at all. Look into ear plugs for shooting ranges for something like that. Hope this helps!

Not sure - I have the 16" fan. It's not that quiet but I don't think loud enough to block out a barking dog. I would consider sound proof head set or simple ear plugs - that's what I use to block out my neighbors loud music. Good Luck.

these are headphones, designed to allow you to hear the device that they are plugged into, not noise blocking. I think that this and ear plugs would be acting against each other.

They do an okay job on blocking sound but remember they are designed to adjust for air pressure first. If you want full sound blockage then get a true ear plug. Or better yet the BOSE noise canceling headphones for $300. They are AMAZING.

Since these are in ear headphones they do block external sounds but if you are looking for active noise cancellation, then the answer is no. Hope this helps.

I don't know. I use these to listen to music at the gym, to drown out the music they play. I also use regular earplugs when I read at the gym because they muffle the sound. You might want to try earplugs.

Based on my limited use I doubt they will block loud or even moderate music. That's why I immediately returned them for a refund.

IMO NO not at all. I have these and I love them for watching TV and music but if you just want to block out surrounding noise, these will not work. I'm very noise sensitive :(

Robert, my experience with Flents Foam Ear Plugs is that they didn't block out "any" noise. I could still hear pretty much every noise, even the most quiet ones. Just my personal experience.
