So at normal listening volumes no one can hear, but it sounds like normal listening volumes aren’t good enough for a plane?
Comment on My opinion on Bone conduction earphones
ace_garp@lemmy.world 7 months agoIn a quiet setting, with the headphones raised to 70-100% volume, people within 1-2m will be able to make out what you are listening too.
(This is with Aeropex Aftershockz)
Keep in mind, at 100% volume they buzz and tickle on your skin, so I never have them set to 100% ever.
60-70% is clear enough for enjoyable listening.

I’ve combined these headphones with earplugs for a plane trip. Engine roar overpowers the sound for bone conducting headphones the same way it does for earbuds or headphones that don’t isolate. You might still need to crank the volume up, though. Planes are loud. No issue of other people overhearing it at that point though.

A note about the Aftershockz is that the bluetooth connect beep is very loud and cannot be adjusted.

Yeah I did send them a message about that. Please fix in next firmware version lol

This is my one true complaint, I have tinnitus already and that beep including the volume beep are what feels like 2-3 times louder than I ever have the volume set.

I try to connect ot before putting on my head. Also, to pull the pads off ear or put the whole thing around neck before doing a volume change. For an absolutely amazing headphone experience, this is a regrettable annoyance.
