Senheiser is good. I can also recommend a bone-conduction headphones called bluez2 from aftershocks. These are wireless (Bluetooth) and are not noise cancelling since they do not cover your ears at all but instead sit just in front of the ear on your cheek bone. I find these useful because unlike regular headphones, these do not cut me out of the rest of the world. These are for $99 or about rs. 6000, so almost in your budget.
They however, do not meet your requirement of noise cancellation. These also don't go into a 3.5 mm jack since these are wireless and use bluetooth. These were launched very recently and I am not sure if you will find them in India easily. I have been using these for infrequent use for the last 2 weeks or so and find them very good. -Manish -----Original Message----- From: AccessIndia [mailto:accessindia-boun...@accessindia.org.in] On Behalf Of Mohib Anwar Rafel Sent: Wednesday, June 25, 2014 1:10 AM To: accessindia Subject: [AI] Suggestions for purchasing rugged, durable and noise canceling in-earphone Hey listers, since we are screenreader users, be it jaws in PC or talks in mobiles. Most of the time we use earphone/headphone. In my view, in order to save our ears from harmful effect of noise, and saving the listening capacity from shifting the threshold, its important to use quality earphone. I am in search of such good quality earphone which could give me best protection against ill effects of regular use of screenreaders/music. I searched over internet but confused. My other consideration for selection of a pair of headphone are; durability as it could work at least for one year or so under normal handeling. Secondly, its ruggedness, as the quality should be strong, thirdly, noise cancelling capacity, fourthly, portability and light weight as could be carried in my pocket. Senheiser, Sound Magic, Philips, Klipsch and Sony earphones are under my wish list. Which brand you guys suggest? Earlier I have used Philips, Sculkandy, UltimateEars and Creative brands. But I am not satisfied with either of them, except SoundMagic. I am looking earphone which could work in my laptop and mobile with 3.5mm audio jack and yes with no microphone. If I find good earphone with in budget of 4 - 5 thousands, I will be more than happy. -- Mohib Anwar Rafel M.Phil 2011, LL.M 2013 Ph.D Candidate, at Jawaharlal Nehru University Delhi, India Phone: 09811767506, 09211400800/ 9268444400 Skype: mohibrafel Register at the dedicated AccessIndia list for discussing accessibility of mobile phones / Tabs on: http://mail.accessindia.org.in/mailman/listinfo/mobile.accessindia_accessindia.org.in Search for old postings at: http://www.mail-archive.com/accessindia@accessindia.org.in/ To unsubscribe send a message to accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in with the subject unsubscribe.
