Audio passthrough on noise cancelling headphones
lilshawn:
okay, okay, being a huge dick aside,
i remember a company at one time made some active earplugs. Once the noise reached a certain DB threshold they activated and blocked the noise (using an inverse soundwave to help) until it subsided to a certain level where the sound was restored. they where basically sound canceling headphones in reverse.
I'm not condoning the use of such an item, but it does exist in one form or another. http://www.earplugstore.com/earmuffs.html

Of course. Google, including the specific search terms used in the above link, turns up very little relevant information.

That's a pretty good solution. I don't currently have headphones that would work for this (I hate earbuds), but maybe an over-the-ear solution that don't have the two sides hooked together would work well.
Vigo:
To be honest, I kinda hate earbuds too. I know they make headphones with the kind of ear pieces that clip around your ear like a bluetooth headset. Clip one on your ear, clip the other to your shirt collar. Just throwing that out as an option.
