I had hoped that AirPods Pro noise cancellation would help me with my hyperacusis, but it turns out that "eardrum suck" (an unpleasant feeling of pressure in the ears) is a thing, and apparently I experience it.
Will it get better, or am I wasting my time? I only notice it when active noise cancellation is on; otherwise these little things are brilliant.
@agkozak to tell the truth, I prefer the protection that a good pair of cans offer. I’ve been using #Sony’s #WH1000XM4, & until recently I’ve been very happy with them. I think the problem is with the app, but the truth is that these things have been through a lot so I don’t know if I have reason to complain
I’m seeing #BadReviews for the current version of their #app, so I’m hesitant to upgrade.
If it doesn’t improve by the end of the #summer, I might have to look elsewhere
@agkozak honestly, I don’t know how things will work, since we are each going to have different sensitivities. I know that for me, there is a range of sound that noise canceling technology falls short on. Luckily though, it’s not a common range of sound around here.
That said, I know that the WH-1000XM5 (new model) has some upgrades that I haven’t experienced.
Places like Walmart and Best Buy are the only places I can think of that might let you try them out. Someplace local?
