Product Information

If, like me, you're addicted to your noise-cancelling headphones, you'll know how offensively loud traffic, trains and the general humdrum of life can sound when you take them off. EASY TO USE - These earplugs are easy to insert and when you wear them correctly, they don't stick out of your ears. Loop Engage Earplugs are designed to take the edge off noise sensitivity while still helping you stay engaged in your surroundings. For someone with ADHD, this selective noise reduction is known to minimise distractions while helping with concentration and focus, especially in environments like classrooms, offices, or public spaces. One of our Sleep Hero testers suffers from misophonia and found Loop Engage Plus to be a fantastic solution for reducing everyday sounds without living in total silence.

All you have to do to keep them in tip-top shape is give them a little wash with warm soapy water every few nights and leave them to dry. Loop Earplugs for tinnitus can protect your ears from environments with high noise levels and prevent damage that might exacerbate tinnitus symptoms. They come in different colours (including seasonal collections) and the Experience Plus product is available with metallic loops, elevating them from practical hearing protector to on-point ear accessory. As for practical noise reduction on the bike at speed, the Experience works fine until the winds pick up. For instance, if chewing sounds are a trigger, our tester found that wearing Loop Engage Plus Earplugs during meals reduced the sound intensity and anxiety levels.I found the silicone plugs both much easier to work with and more comfortable than the foam, but either way it takes a while to attach the ear tips to the acoustic channel stem, so don’t attempt to find your fit as you’re rushing out the door to the airport. We've dedicated hundreds of hours to testing mattresses and sleep accessories, and rely on a team of testers of differing weights, temperature preferences, and sleeping positions to evaluate each product. Then there's a mesh filter that lowers all frequencies equally, reducing decibels, and this is topped off with the ear tips, which work to seal the ear canal. Because there is a link between sensory overload and ADHD, Loop Earplugs can be beneficial for those with ADHD.

Many people opt not to wear earplugs, which is a shame, because they can help prevent everyday challenges like stress, migraines, hearing damage and sensory overwhelm. Loop Earplugs can help reduce background noise and your anxiety levels with an affordable range of earplugs. Suited for indoor activities like sleep and working from home, with Quiet the focus is on comfort and attenuation rather than sound quality,' says Vandermeersch. Flat attenuation is defined as an equal reduction of sound across all frequencies, achieved in hearing protectors by re-introducing a resonant peak in the earplug response to simulate that of the average normal open ear. While wearing these on a busy Monday morning at the WH office I can still hear clearly but everything is softened, without that weird full feeling in my ears or disturbances when I munch on my protein bar.If, like me, the whole concept of Loop Earplugs is something of a revelation, you’ll understand why they have no real competition.

Overall, the high-pitched wind noises – the sound I’m most sensitive to – are quite well mitigated, even at speeds above 70mph, and up to about 40 I can’t hear the wind at all. In terms of noise reduction, whilst the Quiet range do indeed mellow most background sound to a point of inconsequential volume, it must be said that we could still hear when using them. This mesh filters the sound waves rather than blocking them, so you can still hear the conversation clearly. Industry connections: We maintain close relationships with manufacturers and brands, giving us a head start in the latest trends, upcoming products, and the technology that drives them.

I’ve used a wide range of earplugs over the years, from the mushroom types with baffles built in (Alpine, Pinlock), to foam plugs and specialised units by Flare Audio.

Unlike so many boring, tampon-like shapes and wax blobs you so often smush into your ears, it was novel to see an earplug that appeared to take pride in its appearance. For complete silence, we recommend foam earplugs that can offer around 38 dB of noise reduction, far surpassing the 26 dB of Loop Quiet. While Loop Quiet Earplugs offer the most noise reduction, they still do not provide the complete noise-cancelling effect.

However, they also found that Loop Engage was highly effective at reducing background noise while still allowing you to hear the TV or traffic around you.
