So my search for reduced wind noise continues:
I tried riding this week with a headband coming down over the ears to cover the buds. I thought that this would completely cancel the win rush out. Surprisingly it did not! All it did was blunt/muffle it a bit, which I was not at all expecting. I'm starting to get interested in the science of how wind noise works, particularly around earphones, but I don't need another rabbit hole in my life ATM.
I Also found these, which have relatively decent reviews. The audiophiles say that the sound stage (whatever that is) is limited and that the base crowds out higher noises at volume. I don't think that this will be an issue for me as I don't need high quality when riding, I listen to podcasts around the house and the volume of music is very low when in the office.
They say that they have hybrid active noise cancelling, which is the ANC best suited to defeat wind noise. Plus, they also claim an algorithm specifically designed for wind rush - so this sounds precisely what I'm looking for. However, I can't find a single review which tests the ANC with a focus on windy conditions.
But, for around $150-ish, I'm getting closer to pulling the trigger on these to see how they go.
