After much research I am still not sure which headphones would

The big question here is "mixing what". It is kinda possible to balance
a pair of soloists mics with a main pair at a "non noisy" event, but it
is not possible to mix a lot of channels in headphones at a "noisy
event".

I have heard of some DIY solutions for blocking noise, such
as putting noise-protection earmuffs onto my headphones, but
I can't imagine this gets good quality sound. If anyone can
recommend something, I would appreciate it.

Etymotic - i.e. some version of "in ears", or wait for Sennheiser to
perhaps come up with the live location active noise canceling headphone
I have already publicly suggested they should come up with. They are
probably the ones that can get away with making such a thingy.


Kind regards

Sennheiser have in-ear monitors. I think the model number is IE3. They turn
out to be Futuresonics IEMs.
