My desk at work is under a large rooftop HVAC system which produces a constant low-frequency rumble. To make matters worse, my office has a white-noise system, which I cannot hear but I can feel the sonic pressure (it's quite obvious when the white noise switches off in the evening).
I'm hoping a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will substantially mitigate both of these sound sources.
I will NEVER listen to music (or any other audio source) through these phones. I will wear them nine hours a day sitting at my desk, and their only purpose is to try to make my life a little more bearable by lowering the sonic pressure of my work environment.
Every HP review I've seen focuses a lot of attention on audio fidelity, or how compatible the noise cancelling is while listening to music. I could care less (I might just cut off the audio chord so it doesn't get in the way).
I would appreciate any recommendations for my situation.
Thanks!
