sound-isolating/noise reduction head phones

[blazerazor]

do they make a pair of headphones that are good for working in a noisy environment, like running mowers landscaping or working around running engines?

the er-4p headphones that i currently have in my ears right now are doing a great job blocking out this pretty noisy room.


I use them when i mow the lawn, and as long as the music is at a decent volume (not whisper quiet), I can barely, and most of the time not at all, hear the lawnmower. If i were to use the foam tips, which have better noise reduction than the flange tips, im sure itd be even better



I'm sure theres more, my personal experiences with nicer than 50 dollar headphones is very limited, but I went with these on recommendation from the guys over at www.head-fi.org, and I must say i absolutely love them!

I got these for $40 shipped from Amazon about a month ago. On Tuesday they were on sale for $50 shipped. You might keep an eye out for a good deal on these. I really like them. They do an excellent job at noise reduction. I haven't used them while mowing yet, but I could just barely hear the vacuum cleaner with no music playing and not at all with music playing.
