is there noise cancelling bluetooth headphone that allow conversation between wearers?

Ideally a headphone with BT so each person can listen to their own music (or whatever), cancel or reduce ambient machine noise but allow conversation for indoor close proximity use.

May be too much to ask but never know till you ask

Being a former, maybe future motorcyclist, they use family band radio. I was hoping for noise cancellation that didn't cancel voice. Like I said maybe too much to ask

There is that Sony one from Costco that is pretty good... BT, Noise Cancellation, MIC and can be regular TRRRS cabled as well $199 when it's on sale it's $159 to $179 range..

read the specs carefully and see if that is what you are looking for there is some quarks and kinks like you can't do something and take call simultaneously. +$100 more model should be better.

Thank you for the links.

When I meant talk I was referring more to the noise filter not filtering out voice but I didn't make myself clear.

I have the wh1000XM4. They are really comfortable wearing for extended periods and you can have a conversation with them on.

The Sony one is not too bad... I just checked, and setup bluetooth on Lenovo T14 for some one in the house... It was the older Sony WH-H900N... If I remember correctly the complain was you can't listen to music while taking the call... ie using the TRRRS cable and the BT together... but otherwise it is fine... doesn't filter out voice too much and definitely silence the ambient noise a bit. You'll still can have conversation with some one next to you while having the headphone one... Not as loud without though Since you are still wearing a ear muff.

Suspect the BOSE / Sennheiser / Sony are all pretty reputable brand in the audio world... Just search for "NFC headphones" maybe....

I just spoke with my avid motorcycle buddy. He has a SENA, bluetooth, that he and his wife use to chat will traveling. He claims they are the best.

Don't know if they make something for just headphones, but I imagine motorcycle noise cancelling should be pretty good.

I bought these for flying but I mostly use them when I’m working in The shop now I can make calls running a shop vac and nobody knows also works good if someone is trying to talk but I mostly still turn off the noise if I’m talking in person.
