I've recently moved from my own "bunker" to an open plan office, and the background noise is killing me! I'm sat on the edge of a sales team so phones are constantly ringing and lots of loud voices going on coupled with high ceilings and bad acoustics, , it is not ideal for a lot of the analytical type of work I do.

At the moment there isn't an option to get back into a space of my own, so I'm wondering if NCH would be a possible solution - but I've never used them, and not sure how they work, or if they even are a solution.

I'd also prefer something in-ear rather than a set of big DJ cans.

Any advice please?

Very useful - thank you.

I don't tend to listen to music at work, but I'm not adverse to wearing earbuds just so I can concentrate more. This move has been a bit of a culture shock for me...
