I recently spent $300 on noise-cancelling earbuds. I live in the middle of San Francisco, so it’s pretty noisy. I’d tried earplugs and found them uncomfortable and the noise reduction unimpressive. The earbuds have been great for productivity in general (both at work and studying at home). I highly recommend them if you’re in a noisy area and can afford it.
