Puro Sound Labs - PuroQuiet-PLUS Active Noise Cancelling Headphones

We have the PuroQuiet headphones and they’re great.

We got PuroQuiet Plus headphones because we wanted sound cancelling for the plane. They're a bit pricey for toddler headphones, but we only give them to them during the couple weeks before travel (to acclimate) and during travel. They've lasted 2 years so far, and I hope we'll be using them for a good while. They're blue tooth with the option of wiring them.

Puro Quiet Plus active noise canceling, can be wired or Bluetooth, sound limiting to protect their hearing, can daisy chain them. Got them for the plane. The noise canceling helps protect their hearing on planes.

ANC is useful to help cancel out lower register sounds. Medium and higher register sounds can be muffled well with PNC, but also this can make the lower register sounds more noticeable while wearing PNC. PNC does a bad job with lower register sounds because the sound waves are too long, and can basically bypass the actual ear canal/eardrum for detection. Medium and higher tones have shorter sound waves, so they can be effectively muffled through a physical barrier alone. Not sure how well they stand up to throwing, and they’re not cheap, but [puro quiet+ anc](https://www.amazon.com/Puro-Sound-Labs-Microphone-Safer-Studio-Grade/dp/B0CP4N2LFY/ref=mp_s_a_1_2_sspa?crid=2AEIJYXQ988C6&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.oxrTq_G7cFrDTQdzyL3SDhuIwsqnTMKiHu3dC9wrxVwlZN-KrCQFPwmEVyVlWDhaSDWtZAt2RYM1GTuecxI-GTsbIxqofuqeSQXfyOOggU0KEXLG7g4nN24KYqawi2cnbafJZclD9ButYql93JJbEutM2tlIAeh5qGbGVqNf0cIGRUF8NkM6nCGwRfXUmoYlB_63rdDOKvTcLYbFkykMxg.7DY3I3vzQMOvvd8yj8fYeNLJ2lzPUqVhABTgFiJ2vso&dib_tag=se&keywords=puro&qid=1745697773&sprefix=puro%2Caps%2C140&sr=8-2-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9waG9uZV9zZWFyY2hfYXRm&psc=1) headphones are decent if you need anc and pnc, and they’re made for smaller heads. The anc can be turned on independently of the headphone. It does drain the battery fairly fast, compared to the headphone feature, but they also charge decently fast. I got a pair for my kid, because she hates low pitched sounds and found ear protectors made things sound too rumbly, and then got myself a pair, because I was borrowing hers so much to listen to stuff and drown out kid chaos. I don’t usually use the anc, because high pitches are the ones that get to me, but every so often it comes in really useful to combat particular overwhelming sound environments. But regardless, hopefully the anc vs pnc info is useful.

I recently got them PuroQuiet Plus headphones, as we were going on a flight and they loved them. Seemed to be comfortable, battery life was good, they appreciated the noise cancelling. They're Bluetooth and you can also use them wired. https://a.co/d/bTzASeN

Yeah they're not cheap. Good though! They were on a cheaper sale price over the summer, so maybe they'll be cheaper in Black Friday?

For wireless active noise cancelling headphones with a decent battery life? They seem pretty good value to me. Obviously if you don't want to get ANC headphones for your kids, then don't. Regularly wireless or wired headphones for kids are much more reasonably priced.

Both of our kids (now 8 & 5) are sensitive to noise and they started wearing headphones/defenders around the age of 4-5. We let them wear them whenever they want. In our experience they're a fantastic way to help prevent a sensory-overload meltdown, because ahead of time you're helping them to take away or manage a stress. Our kids use a few different things depending on the situation: **1. Puro Sound Labs PuroQuiet Plus over the ear headphones** These are very good quality headphones with active noise cancellation. These are fantastic but quite expensive. Very good quality and our kids haven't been able to break them yet! They have bluetooth as well as an optional audio cable, and also have a built-in volume limiter so that the kids can't accidentally make it too loud. Both bluetooth and the active noise cancellation require the battery to be charged. But even without the noise cancellation turned on, the headphones themselves already provide a really great noise reduction. Our daughter also really likes the feeling of them gently covering/warming her ears. Our kids use these headphones when listening to audio books on an iPad, as well as just randomly throughout the day if they want things to be a bit quieter. They also wear them at events like the school disco. Our daughter often comes home from school, puts the headphones on and starts drawing as a way to process the day and self-regulate. **2. Loop ear buds / plugs** These are very discreet ear buds that help to reduce noise levels. Our kids use these when they don't want over the ear headphones on. **3. Ear defenders** Our kids probably use these the least but every now and again they like them. So we just try and offer different options depending on what they feel like wearing or the situation itself, like in the house or at a park or going to an event.

No experience with the yoto ones BUT we got the Puroquiet plus kids headphones for the plane with ours and they're excellent. Active noise cancelling. Took them off my toddler to take her to the bathroom on the plane and she was all "mama it's too loud now"

We’ve had the Puro Sound Labs for two years and they are still going strong
