Loop Engage Earplugs for Conversation – Low-level Noise Reduction with Clear Speech – Social Gatherings, Noise Sensitivity & Parenting – 8 Ear Tips in XS/S/M/L - SNR 16 dB coverage - Clear

It doesn't really let all voice frequencies pass, I do find talking to some people harder than others, and my own voice sounds muffled - comes with the territory when wearing plugs I suppose. I do enjoy these just for when the world is a bit overwhelming and you want to turn it down a notch - though I hesitate to recommend these for quality talk time.

These Engage earplugs are absolutely awesome. It took me a while to get my ears ready for them. At first, I had a lot of pressure on the left eardrum when inserted, while the right was comfortable. That was super frustrating. After some online research, it seemed I may have had some impacted wax in that left ear. I tried a drugstore wax dissolving/ear wash treatment for about a week or so in that ear. The treatment dislodged a lot of wax. Once that was over, I used some water drying agent in the ear (due to the water wash procedure) and some aquaphor just at the canal opening for healing. I tried the earplugs again, and all was pain free! I have very very small ear canals, the XS tips work best for me with these. I have also used the Quiets for sleeping, but those XS tips seem bigger and I have ordered the XXS tips. It took quite a bit of practice, days of using 2 mirrors front and back simultaneously to see tip placement in my ears, for me to finally get proficient at inserting these properly. There are a lot of videos online, but honestly everyone's ear's are made unique and I feel there are many ways to get a good personalized fit. You need a comfortable fit and a good seal. It is an adventure to achieve both at the same time, but do not give up. It probably took me 2-3 weeks to finally be able to wear these as intended. I think these are quite comfortable. I could probably do 3-4 hours without a break. They are not comfortable enough for sleeping. Eventually, I think I would be able to wear for an 8 hour day if necessary. I purchased the clear. I want to wear them at work. I am a high school teacher in a STEM lab environment. I have 30+ students in a class. My space is concrete walls and floors with an open concept ceiling. There are power tools running, loud conversations, banging on projects with hammers, we have a wind tunnel (super loud), and the students like to have their music playing in the background. It is a great class to teach, but sometimes it is very overstimulating to be in all day long. I have 1-2 ninth grade classes a day each week, and they can be quite loud just in general due to the maturity level. These bad boys tone things down for me. They take the edge off so I don't lose my mind. I can still hear the kids, but MUCH MUCH less loud. If I need to insert the Mutes, even better! I still can maintain engagement, but it is so much more tolerable to be in the room. Currently, I have them popped in, the kids do not know due them being clear, and I can actually think/grade/lesson plan while they do their thing. Everyone is happy and I am not a crabby grumpy teacher. If I lost these I would 100% get online and repurchase. I NEED these for work, not everyday, but often. I keep the little case zipped up in my jacket chest pocket. It is so small that it is not even noticeable that I am carrying it around. I have asked for the Loop necklace strap thing for Christmas. They do not cancel all noise, as this is not what they were designed for. They tone things down while still allowing you to participate in the environment. The Mutes do make things noticeably quieter and I feel they are worth it. Be careful to take them out with a twist to break the seal. If you just pull them out, the sudden change in pressure is somewhat of a discomfort to the eardrum.

Parfait pour faire des courses, du shopping, prendre les transports quand on a une sensibilité accrue aux bruits. Les sons non-nécessaires sont tamisés, sans empêcher de comprendre et suivre une conversation. Confortables et la version transparente est super discrète, de sorte que les gens ne tiquent pas dessus. Je recommande vivement.

Los uso para interiores o cuando sé que estaré conversando con personas que tienen un volumen alto de voz, y me ayudan mucho a regularme y no sentirme abrumada con el ruido

I spent about a year debating whether or not I should get these. I have ADHD and bipolar and I’m an Early Childhood Educator and a mother, so my brain is always scattered and with how loud children can be sometimes it just hits a nerve sometimes and the noise can also overwhelm me making it hard when I get home and my child wants attention from me and I’m just overstimulated from that day. I was worried that it would just be the same as putting a pair of earbuds used for music into my ears. And after reading a lot of reviews and doing a lot of research I figured it was worth a try. My main deciding factor was another review on here from a ECE who liked these. I tested these out at home before taking them to work because I needed to make sure I could hear well enough that it wouldn’t cause any problems at work. I was surprised when I could still hear my son from another room but things sounded calmer (I don’t think quieter is the right word but not really sure calmer is either), I brought them to work the next day and oh man was it a blessing. I was so much less stressed out by the end of the day and I was able to give my child all of the attention he was wanting when we got home because I wasn’t so overstimulated, which helped with the mom guilt. I mostly just use one in my ear as I find most of the time that’s sufficient but when things get really loud I put both in and I feel like I can handle all of the children’s emotions so much easier. It also kinda makes me feel like I’m in my own little bubble and I really enjoy that. I don’t find myself being able to hear swooshing noises or any internal noises like a lot of other people do. I also don’t find that voices or sounds are muffled either. The one thing that slightly bothers me is my voice. It sounds louder and I was worried I was changing how loud I talked to compensate for what I was hearing but my husband said I talk at the same volume as when I don’t have them in. Overall I’m very pleased with these and I am thankful I found something to help with the daily chaos

これはすごいですね。YouTubeでたまたま見て購入しました。 聴覚が少し過敏ぐらいでなんとなく過ごしていましたが、今年は大きい音が毎日、そして急に出るのでとてもしんどかったです。それが一日の大半ですから。特に左耳が毎日痛い。 ・耳栓なので無理してノイズキャンセリングイヤホンを買うより安い。 ・会話ができるレベルの消音。日常でいらない高音が消えてくれる。 ・自分の体内の音が聞こえてしまう。 一日中付けて生活をしてみました。会話ができる耳栓です。びっくりしました。ほんとに会話できる！しかも呼ばれたら気づけます。個人的には会話がしやすくなったと感じました。そしてなによりも、ノイズキャンセリングみたいな機能が欲しいわけで、音楽を聴きたいわけではないですよね。そう考えると安く済みます。 音自体は説明にもある通り、会話の音域のみが残り、日常生活における高音の「耳がキンキンする音域」が減ります。そして「突発的な大きい音」が普通に聞こえます。これだけでどれだけストレスが無くなるか。耳が痛くなったり、耳鳴りがしたり、イライラしたりすることが大幅に軽減されました。 仕方がないことですが、体内の音が聞こえてしまいます。特に食事中は外したほうがいいです。自分の咀嚼音が響きわたります。このときは会話ができないなと感じましたね。 知り合いの聴覚過敏の人に勧めました。びっくりするぐらい落ち着いていました。耳栓なので付けているのが気持ち悪いとのことでしたが、それ以上に落ち着くので付けているそうです。 たまたま、これを買ってから子育てでストレスを抱えている方の話を聞きました。「子どもは好きだが声が聞こえるとイライラする。」「子育てのストレスを身内が分かってくれない。」「耳栓をすると音が聞こえなり楽だったが、もしものことがあったらどうしようと不安になってやめた。」とのことだったのでこれを勧めました。同じような悩みの方は買って損はないと思います。親の不安は子に伝わるものです。これを付けて、子どもをしっかり見守りながら、子どもと楽しくコミュニケーションが取れれば、おのずといい方向に向かうのではないでしょうか。 僕自身は今はメンタル面も含めて回復してきたので付ける頻度は少なくなりましたが、あの大きなストレスから救ってくれたのは間違いなくこの耳栓です。でも、まだ続くのでもしものためにカバンにずっといれています。 音でストレスを抱えている人は一度買ってみるのはアリだと思います。
