Ask HN: Do you use noise cancelling headphones?

Slightly off topic: what’s a good headset/EarPod mic that eliminates my background noise so that who I’m calling doesn’t hear the noise around me?

piggybacking here. I can't do without in-ears. Headsets/devices that cover the whole ear are too uncomfortable and all other options' mic catches simply every possible sound generated in whichever room I'm in.

I recently went all out and bought a SM7B as my daily calls have doubled to ~80% of the day. It’s been a complete game changer. I live next to a train line, have children and pets and it isolates so well.

Hands down Jabra Evolve 75 (or it's successor). Great noise cancellation for your voice to the benefit of the other end of the line. In a deliberate test, my colleague could hear me talk but couldn't hear music playing 5 feet from me.
