Does the sleep mask help with noise cancellation?

The mask itself does not. It feels like thin foam material inside. Ear plugs block sound. The mask itself will block sound the same as pulling a thin blanket over your head. So not really at all.

Yes, it does. With earplugs also underneath you wouldn't hear a thing. But without earplugs it is still pretty good.

It doesn't cancel any noise at all. Just a marketing ploy. Beware because they don't do refunds if you use the mask.

The mask itself does not cancel out the background noise. It help reduce some but not much, may be just 10%. What I did was to use wax ear plug (also available on Amazon) to cancel out the background noise and use the mask to block the light (which is good and comfortable)

The mask wraps around your head and over the ears, so it has some kind of muffling effect, but I would not call it noise cancellation.

A little, but it really helps to block out the light. My husband wears ear plugs as well as the mask and he says that he sleeps very well. It does cover the ears, but I wouldn't count on it blocking out all noises. It definitely keeps out light and is great if a person has to sleep during the day!

It will cancel some noise but be careful, you do need to turn them up a bit but having them up high for long periods of time will blow out the right ear bud. Very nice headphones non-the less

Maybe, if you are someone who can sleep lying on his/her back all night long, or has a special donut-shaped pillow which leaves room for the earmuffs. If the sound you are trying to deaden is rumbly, be aware that some of that low frequency sound is still going to get through.

I have used it - the big difference is in the headsets. You need good noise canceling headsets.

It depends on how loud it is. Most normal background noises are eliminated but very loud noises will still be heard. To compensate you raise the level of sound in the head set.

Noise cancellation means that the device has a microphone which listens to the sounds in the room (ambient) and then transmits opposing sound waves through the headphones while playing music etc. This requires power to facilitate this technology.

Not necessarily. They reduce the number of decibels, but not down to zero. They should increase THE LIKELIHOOD that you will be able to sleep, especially if your wife also turns the volume down low.

Not completely. I have not found anything that will do that as much as try to advertise! I wear them everynight because they do block most ambient sound i.e. fans, tv's down low.

The snoring noise will be reduced somewhat but if it is loud snoring I think you will be wasting your money. :)

Hi Mo, since this headset is a dual ear wearing style it will help cancel out most of the background noise. But the headset doesn't cancel out 100% of background noise, so you will still be able to hear some noise around you.

The noise cancellation is great but does not block all noises. If you are around a loud area with children or a high traffic area you will still hear some noise but not a great amount.

Not entirely. It excels on canceling repetitive low frequency noise, such as the airplane turbines, but fails on more complex sounds.

No, not unless very high volume. It just makes it less likely that you would be awoken by small noises when asleep.

Using the controller, yes. There's a "stop" button and a slider to turn off noise cancelling. I hope that answers your question.

If you are asking about the Marsona sound machine, I think it would definitely make the snoring much less noticeable. It may not drown it out, but it masks the sound so it makes sleeping with a snorer much less irritating. It does have a volume control, so you can actually turn it up quite a bit. That helps too.

Hi Memymine, this headset has a noise canceling microphone to help reduce background noise. Also there is an easy mute button on the earpiece

My understanding of Noise Reduction is for the MIC. It reduces background noise that the Mic picks up.
