There may be some additional benefit when using high-quality noise cancelling headphones, especially with low-pitched male voices. However, ChatterBlocker can effectively mask voice with or without the use of noise cancelling headphones.

Set ChatterBlocker's volume (and/or your sound card or speaker volumes) to a level that seems comfortable and effective.
