Hi all,

 

I've been wanting to get myself a pair of ANC earbuds for a while now. My apartment complex recently started replacing roof shingles, and the constant hammering noises are driving me crazy and pushing me to get a pair. ANC isn't great at reducing short, sharp noises like clapping, right? Will they still help reduce all the hammering going on above me? If so, what buds for $200 or less do people recommend? I've got a Oneplus phone.

I have a pair of anc buds from AKG N400NC That are pretty nice. The memory foam ear tips offer the best seal and sound isolation, you do have to have something playing for the ANC to work correctly, but it can be just pink noise at low volume or something. Not super premium, but pretty good. 

 

Also have a pair of Anker soundcore life Q20 ANC headphones that work pretty well, very affordable and pretty good for ANC ability.
