    Loop Earplugs – Discrete & Reusable Hi-Fi Noise-Reducing Silicone Earplugs

    Nowadays, loud noises can be pretty much anywhere. That could either be in any typical urban location where passing cars, trucks and even motorcycles generate loud horn and engine noises, within industrial facilities and/or construction job sites where loud machinery is being used, or even in live concerts that you might want to attend (in where the noise-levels can definitely become overwhelming). Given the fact that there’s the possibility of experiencing loud noises at almost any given moment, it’s obviously important that every person should be more mindful about protecting their hearing health, specially because one-time exposures to any loud noises that go above 85 decibels can damage one’s hearing and potentially cause permanent hearing damage. Now, according to the University of Rochester Medical Center, wearing noise-reducing earplugs is actually one of the best ways to protect your hearing health against potential loud noises, as that can effectively help to reduce close-by loud noises by approximately 15 to 30 decibels (if worn correctly). Moreover, wearing noise-reducing earplugs can also greatly help to prevent everyday struggles like stress, migraines, and even sound-induced panic attacks. So, if you’re considering to purchase a pair of noise-reducing earplugs, then the Loop Earplugs are definitely a great choice for you to go with.

    The Loop Earplugs are noise-reducing earplugs made of soft silicone that are thoroughly designed to reduce the noise-level of any surrounding loud noises by a minimum of 18dB.

    By wearing these noise-reducing silicone earplugs you can you make unwanted / bothersome loud noises more manageable, which ultimately allows you to more naturally experience any surrounding sounds (especially loud ones) without ever having to worry about getting your hearing damaged (for which said damage could potentiality even be permanent).

    It’s also worth noting that Loop Earplugs are available in a few different models, for which each of those models are specifically designed according to the purpose that you need them for. Those different models are: the Loop Quiet, the Loop Experience, and the Loop Experience Pro, along with the company’s recently announced exclusive (i.e. limited-time) model of noise-reducing earplugs called the Loop X Tomorrowland (which was designed together with Tomorrowland).

    Now, let’s talk about the company’s three (x3) main models of noise-reducing earplugs – the Loop Quiet, Loop Experience, and Loop Experience Pro – and check out what each of them has to offer you.



    Loop Quiet Earplugs

    DESIGN & BASIC SPECS

    The Loop Quiet Earplugs are the company’s most simple design of noise-reducing earplugs, as they’re designed to allow you to stay in your own “bubble”, meaning that they’re meant to be used for more typical lifestyle situations, including sleeping (as they help you achieve a more relaxed environment), to focus / concentrate while studying, working or reading, and also to reduce the loud noises that you could come across during your daily-commute as well as when you’re traveling.

    In terms of their design, they feature a super discrete and ultra-modern design, which means that as long you wear them correctly, they won’t ever “stick out” of your ears.

    Moreover, the Loop Quiet Earplugs are made from high-quality soft silicone, which not only makes them durable, but also easy to insert within your ear, and most importantly, very comfortable to wear.

    Thanks to their silicone construction, they’re also washable, and consequently, reusable.

    Speaking of wearing them, note that the Loop Quiet Earplugs are designed to appropriately fit within every single ear, no matter of a person’s ear size or ear shape, as each pair of these noise-reducing earplugs comes together with a total of four (x4) sets of silicone ear tips that all come in different sizes (XS, S, M, and L).

    As such, if your ears happen to hurt when wearing them, then all you have to do is to choose a smaller size of silicone ear tips. In addition, if you either notice that the earplugs happen to fall out of your ear, or even if feel like the earplugs aren’t really reducing the sound-level effectively enough, all you have to do is to choose a larger size for their silicone ear tips.

    Last but not least, each pair of Loop Quiet Earplugs also comes together with a sleek Carrying Case.

    AUDIO DESIGN & AUDIO SPECS

    For their noise-reducing design, the Loop Quiet Earplugs combine a Silicone Ear Tip together with a Silicone Plug, which ultimately gives them a noise reduction rating (NRR) of 27 decibels, meaning that these noise-reducing earplugs are ultimately capable of reducing the sound-level from any surrounding loud noise by exactly 27dB.

    PRICING & AVAILABILITY

    The Loop Quiet Earplugs are currently available in six (x6) different stylish color models: Zen White, Essense Black, Hush Blue (Dark Blue), Calm Pink (Salmon), Soul Bordeaux (Dark Red), and Magic Mint (Light Green).

    If you’re interested in buying them, note that each pair goes for $19.99 (14,95€ for EU residents). You can order them online right now, either from Loop Earplugs’s official shopping page, or alternatively, specifically for US residents, you’ll can get them from Amazon instead.



    Loop Experience Earplugs

    DESIGN & SPECS

    Then, there’s also the Loop Experience Earplugs, which are a pair of high-fidelity noise-reducing earplugs that are specifically designed to preserve sound quality but avoid noise pollution, meaning that you’ll still be able to hear everything properly, but just a little less loudly than what a loud noise would typically sound like.

    That said, they’re mainly meant to be used at times when you need to protect your hearing, including during live concerts, music festivals, live events or even while riding a motorcycle. Not only that, but they are perfectly suitable for people who are easily triggered by noise (such as people that experience noise sensitivity, musicians, parents with potentially loud children and more).

    Design-wise, just like the Quiet model, the Loop Experience also feature a very discrete and ultra-modern design, so as long you wear them correctly, they won’t really be that visible at all.

    Regarding their construction, the Experience Earplugs feature a very durable construction, and they also come equipped with the same type of soft silicone ear-tip used in the Quiet model, which makes them durable, but also easy to insert within your ear, and also quite comfortable to wear.

    In terms of wearing them, note that the Loop Experience Earplugs are also designed to appropriately fit within every single ear, no matter of a person’s ear size or ear shape, as each pair also comes together with four (x4) sets of silicone ear tips of different sizes (XS, S, M, and L).

    Once again, if your ears happen to hurt when wearing them, all you have to do is to choose a smaller size of silicone ear tips. Additionally, if you either notice that the earplugs happen to fall out of your ear, or even if feel like the earplugs aren’t really reducing the sound-level effectively enough, all you have to do is to choose a larger size for their silicone ear tips.

    Last but not least, each pair of Loop Experience Earplugs also comes with its own dedicated Carrying Case.

    AUDIO DESIGN & AUDIO SPECS

    For their noise-reducing design, the Loop Experience Earplugs first combine an Acoustic Channel together with a Mesh that are used to filter any incoming sound waves (especially the ones created by loud sounds), for which that Acoustic Channel and Mesh are integrated directly under a Silicone Ear Tip.

    This ultimately gives these high-fidelity noise-reducing earplugs a noise reduction rating (NRR) of 18 decibels, meaning that they’re ultimately capable of reducing the sound-level from any surrounding loud noise by exactly 18dB, which essentially allows both speech and other surrounding sounds to still remain crystal-clear, but just a less little loud.

    PRICING & AVAILABILITY

    The Loop Experience Earplugs are currently available in four (x4) different stylish color models: Midnight Black, Swinging Silver, Glorious Gold, and Rose Gold.

    If you’re interested in buying them, note that each pair goes for $29.95 (€24,95 for EU residents). You can order them online right now, either from Loop Earplugs’s official shopping page, or alternatively, specifically for US residents, you’ll can get them from Amazon instead.



    Loop Experience Pro Earplugs

    DESIGN & SPECS

    Finally, we also have the Loop Experience Pro Earplugs, which are a pair of high-fidelity noise-reducing earplugs that are specifically designed to filter more or less noise on demand, thanks to a unique silicone noise-blocking filter accessory (called the Loop Mute), which adds some extra sound-attenuation for their unique sound-blocking design, all while also preserving sound quality and simultaneously avoiding noise pollution.

    Essentially, they’re mainly meant to be used to protect your hearing during concerts, festivals or even for people that actually produce / make music (including DJs, guitarists, drummers and other types of musicians). They’re also great for audiophiles as well as extremely suitable for people who are highly-triggered by noise (such as people that experience noise sensitivity, musicians, parents with potentially loud children and more).

    Regarding their design, just like the Quiet and the Experience models, the Loop Experience Pro Earplugs also feature a fairly discrete and ultra-modern design, so as long you wear them correctly, they won’t really be that visible at all.

    In terms of their construction, the Experience Pro Earplugs feature a very durable construction, and they also come equipped with the same type of soft silicone ear-tip used in the Quiet and Experience models, which makes the Experience Pro just as durable, as well as fairly easy to insert within your ear, and also quite comfortable to wear.

    When it comes to wearing them, note that the Loop Experience Pro were also designed to appropriately fit within every ear, no matter of a person’s ear size  /shape, as each pair also comes together with four (x4) sets of silicone ear tips of different sizes (XS, S, M, and L), along with the unique addition of three (x3) extra sets of foam ear tips of different sizes (S, M, L).

    As a last-time reminder, if your ears happen to hurt when wearing them, all you have to do is to choose a smaller size of silicone ear tips. Additionally, if you either notice that the earplugs happen to fall out of your ear, or even if feel like the earplugs aren’t really reducing the sound-level effectively enough, all you have to do is to choose a larger size for their silicone ear tips.

    Lastly, each pair of Loop Experience ProEarplugs also comes with its own portable Carrying Case.

    AUDIO DESIGN & AUDIO SPECS

    In terms of their noise-reducing design, the Loop Experience Pro Earplugs not only combine the same type of Acoustic Channel with a Mesh (integrated directly under a Silicone Ear Tip) which are used together to filter any incoming sound waves (especially the ones created by loud sounds), but they also utilize a silicone noise-blocking filter accessory (called the Loop Mute) that ultimately adds an extra 5dB of sound-attenuation for their unique sound-blocking design.

    All that ultimately gives these high-fidelity noise-reducing earplugs a noise reduction rating (NRR) of 18 decibels up to 23 decibels (when having them equipped together with their Loop Mute silicone noise-blocking filter accessory), meaning that they’re ultimately capable of reducing the sound-level from any surrounding loud noise by either 18dB or 23dB (depending on whether or not you have them equipped with their Loop Mute noise-blocking filter).

    This essentially allows loud music sounds to still remain crystal-clear, but just a less little loud to ultimately protect your hearing health from potential permanent damage.

    PRICING & AVAILABILITY

    Just like their standard Experience model, the Loop Experience Pro Earplugs are also currently available in the same four (x4) different color models: Midnight Black, Swinging Silver, Glorious Gold, and Rose Gold.

    If you’re interested in buying them, note that each pair goes for $34.95 (€34,95 for EU residents). You can order them online right now, either from Loop Earplugs’s official shopping page, or alternatively, specifically for US residents, you’ll can get them from Amazon instead.
