Will earbuds with anc reduce loud gym music?

This bot thing is getting out of hand here.  C’mon A’gon!!!

Say it ain’t so Joe:

@lloyd64 is a bot?!?!

Who could have possibly seen this coming??

I have to increase the volume of my current earbuds in order to listen to my music which is harmful to the ears. If i get earbuds with anc, will they at least be able to help me hear the music in my earbuds at a lower volume? I don't want big headphones that cover the ear cuz my ears get really hot especially working out during summer  https://vlc.onl/ 

i got this.....

I haven't tried the shure.  

What’s your budget?  These Sonys get very good reviews for both sound quality and noise cancelling so would be my top pick if within your budget.

@carlsbad2  I've never heard an over the ear headphone that blocked out as much noise as my Shures do.  I'll have to go listen.

Over the ear like Bose will do better. 

Almost any of the Shure IEM's with the yellow foam plugs will block out incredible amounts of noise.  They are like gun range ear plugs and sound really good, though the over the ear wires make them uncomfortable for some.

Also, aftermarket memory foam ear tips do a MUCH better job than the basic plastic ear tips.  Have to carefully size them for your buds though.

I started noticing a few years ago that many people who doing anything from walking to working have earbuds in. A lot of times they seem to be in a different world with a zombie expression on their faces. It seems especially dangerous when they cross intersections without even looking, and it happens every day.

I recently had some bose noise canceling earbuds that work very well. They just recently died after 3 years of hard use. They don't make that model anymore.  I used them for sleep and they cancelled the sound of a room a/c unit almost completely. They will alter the sound of your music.
