Miq =E2=80=93 do you have any feel for whether the earphones you =
recommended allow enough ambient sound in to be used when driving an =
open car? I could use something that knocks down the road- and =
wind-noise, but still allows me to hear sirens, horns, etc. [not to =
mention being on the legal side of being able to hear]. I=E2=80=99ve =
used similar units in the past, combining basic off-the-shelf earphones =
with custom ear molds.
=20
It would be great to get something that works without a lot of work!!

Airplanes are one of the last few things that are still using 3.5mm =
jacks for audio.
=20
I use these:
=20
https://a.co/d/gKquRdn
=20
They have changeable wired connectors that allow me to swap them for a =
usb-c connector so I can connect them to my phone or tablet.
=20
One change I do is swap out the thin silicon bulbs for the ear canal =
with a replacement memory foam upgrade:
=20
https://a.co/d/ftfoAIx
=20
I've used this most recently on a trip to India where I was in a plane =
for over 16 hours on the longest leg, as well as a couple of 17+ hour =
flights to South Africa.
=20
These earbuds are not active, but with the memory foam they do a great =
job and have excellent sound quality for under $30
=20
I had another pair that lasted at least 10 years, thanks to being able =
to replace the wires when they degraded from over bending.
=20
I've been flying a lot the past 3 years, averaging over 150,000 miles of =
international travel, and used them even when flying business/first =
where the airline offers a powered over ear headset in the seat, due to =
comfort.
