Best noise reduction headphones for flying with tinnitus?
What would you say are the best noise reduction/noise cancelling headphones for flying when you suffer with Tinnitus and don't want to make it worse?
I've read over ear/enclosed types like the Bose QC-15 can make it worse, and the in ear buds are also bad as they can create a seal.
So the on-ear type are the best choice, and I am liking the look of the Bose QC-3's, and seeing as they are the pioneers of this technology, I am thinking they are going to be one of the best?
The reason for over ear ones possibly make Tinnitus worse is because if you have them on for an extended period of time they can cause your inner ear pressure to change and then making it hard to equalise that pressure, this I have suffered from and did make my T worse.

You really can't go wrong with Bose. There's a lot of reviews online and the Bose ones pretty much always make the top of the list.
I find in-ear headphones uncomfortable and almost never use them, so I have a pair of Bose QC2 around-ear headphones (the predecessor to the QC15) and they're great for flying, though I don't know what they're like with tinnitus. They also last pretty well. The part that wears out the fastest, the foam ear cups, is replaceable. I've had the same pair for at least 6 years, replaced the ear cups twice and the headphone cord once (I use them all the time, not just for flying).

If they're earbuds put a collection of ear muffs over them. You could additionally seem at headphones made through shure and different firms which can be made for these occasions (in ear screen buds)
