Hi,
I don’t know if its just my imagination or can active noise-canceling actually be felt in your ears? Like I get they cancel out soundwaves but it leaves a kind of pressure behind. After some time it stresses me out more than actual noise from traffic. Is this placebo or a real thing?
It feels like when you go on a airplane and your ears close because of the altitude switch, and I get the same reflex of trying to yawn to make it go away

The submarine sensation. I had that with my first crappy ANC from libratone. Try Sony’s wh-1000xm series and use their app to optimize the pressure. It helped me.
You get used to it. But it feels like pressure.
When I first tried noise cancelling headphones, they were the Bose ones around 2010 or so. I put them on, started to do some work at a Starbucks and then I slowly started feeling motion sickness. I thought maybe I was coming down with something. But I felt fine the next day until I used them again and once again, I got the sensation of motion sickness. So I returned them and avoided any noise cancelling headphones for a long time. Then on a trip to Vegas, I forgot my headphones, so I bought a pair of Sony WH1000XM3 at the airport and that experience was great, so maybe it was just how Bose handled the noise cancelling. If you search ANC headphones motion sickness, you’ll see more information about it.
