Do these cancel out snoring?

They wouldn't. They would reduce the volume, so perhaps if you can sleep with quiet snoring? Just get a pair of cheap ear plugs which snuff out everything if you want to cancel out snoring.

No, they are made for listening to loud music but still hearing all the frequencies. Use regular foam earplugs to block snoring.

Not really. There are other options that are better for blocking out snoring.

Probably not. And they poke out too far for someone to wear when sleeping unless they lay on their back. Ironically, snoring is usually worse when someone's on their back. Wax is actually best if you can get it out clean afterwards.

Depends on how loud the snoring is. The ER20 is rated to reduce all frequencies by 20dB. If the snoring is room-shakingly loud, you won't completely cancel it but will reduce it to a much lower level. A friend of mine used these ER20s to sleep every night; he and his girlfriend lived a couple stories above a downtown nightclub which blasted thumping dance music all night.

I don't believe they would completely block the sound or create COMPLETE silence. I live right on a major road (4 lanes of traffic) with my bedroom facing the road, and they block out most of that noise...to the point where I can sleep soundly. I hope this helps.

David, the noise cancelling works by it self without having to plug it into anything, so it should help cut down the snoring noises for your partner. You do need to get the one specific for your intended player, either for apple or Android devices.

They dampen noise, but are not silencers. I can wear these on airplanes and hear people talking just fine, but the overall noise level is seriously reduced. It assists one to ignore the noise more easily. Depending upon your ability to ignore soft noises, these may or may not work for you.

Not quite sure what you mean about a noise reducer. This is a noise amplifier. My answer has to be "NO" based on what I think you mean. If your partner has a snoring problem , my advice is to put a CPAP mask on him. I've used one for years because I am a very bad snorer. Although I hate it, my wife says it works fine!!

No but they may reduce the sound enough for you to concentrate. They do not block out the sound completely.

To a point yes. I used them on a family trip to disney and my parents snore LOUD like lawn mowers. The plugs helped big time but you can just faintly hear things. Nothing will block out sound 100% really

Hi, Veronica. I cannot give you the technical noise reduction range. But, in my opinion these ear plugs work really well but you MUST follow the directions for proper insertion. They do not totally cancel out the noise from my husband's snoring but he's REALLY loud and these plugs reduce the noise such that I barely notice it. They allow me to get to sleep and even when I wake up in the night, I do not notice the snoring. They do, however, allow me to still hear my iPhone's alarm clock but I do have it on the night table right next to my pillow. As an aside, my husband's radio alarm is set to raucous music and he turns it up so loud that it jars me awake so badly that I'm in a foul mood. These ear plugs deaden that sound such that awaking is MUCH gentler. You should definitely give these a try. They are the ONLY ones I've found to give me relief from the noise. They even reduce the noise fatigue from airplane engine noise on long flights. I also ride a motorcycle and am thinking about trying them for long rides as the engine and wind noise can be very fatiguing as well. Hope this info helps.

No, but they are in ear headphones so that helps reduce outside noise if you have a good fit.True noise cancelling headphones are a lot more expensive than these.

No they do not, they are only for listening. But they are really comfortable and as I wrote in my review, great for listening while falling asleep.

No they don't block out noise. They work for me because I want to be aware of sound around me but I can still enjoy my music at the same time. I hope this helps you.

I have not slept with them on but suspect that they would not feel comfortable while sleeping with them on. They are not made for sleeping. They are made to muffle ambient sound while awake and upright.

These are good for wireless headsets and for the price. You will still hear some snoring but not nearly as loud as without them.If you want a real quiet headset you should get a much more expensive "noise canceling" head set, usually they connect with a long small audio cable and cost over $500.

Depends on what type of noise you want to block out. It makes conversation seem louder to me, but if I want to block out background noise such as my roommate's loud snoring or large fans or vents outside my apartment, it works. By it works, I mean it creates some distance between you and the noise so it is easier to ignore. You might want to look at other products though, or use these with ear plugs. That would be more effective.

No, they do not feature noose cancelling. The foam earpiece covers allow you to hear noises, conversations, etc. Around you.

They will tone down the loud music and severely mute the talking outside your door. One of the reason I started wearing ear plugs was the fact that I worked nights and the maintenance office was below me. I have an air purifier in my room that I don't hear once I put in the ear plugs. My wife snores and it blocks out all but the most severe snoring. These are what our hospital uses when you get and MRI. Headphones are the only thing that will completely block out sound but these will make you happy.

I'm not sure if they block out snoring as I typically use them in a musical setting and they do a great job at cutting out the "fatiguing" frequencies. If you are planning on sleeping with them I wouldn't recommend as they have a plastic "stem" that sticks out of your ear and if pressed can cause pain for prolonged periods of time. For sleeping and yard work I use the LaserLite foam earplugs, they are comfortable and work great at blocking unwanted sounds. Sorry this wasn't directly related to snoring, but a great product nonetheless!
