Nobody owns a pair of earphones any more
Really. I can't hear them over the silence produced by my bose QC ultra earbuds. I do see a lot of people walking round with big headphones on these days.

What headphones are you using on the Tube?
Consider mid-range Sony. But if you really don't want to hear things, Bose QuietComfort Ultra 2nd Gen is the way to go. They're expensive. The older QC non-ultra are still quite good and noticeably cheaper.

Airplane Headphone Recommendations!
I upgraded to Bose QC Ultra Earbuds 2nd Gen for Apple Airpods. They work well, and I hope to add a Bluetooth transmitter with a 3.5mm audio jack so I can use them with airplane entertainment systems.
