Noise reduction acoustic earplugs
Acoustic earplugs are designed to protect your ears from excessive noise while preserving the quality of sound. Traditional foam earplugs block out sound, which can be great in some situations – but it doesn’t cut it in others, like concerts, when you want to be able to hear everything quickly.
Rather than blocking or muffling sound waves, acoustic earplugs are specially designed to attenuate frequencies evenly to reduce the overall volume while maintaining sound clarity. If you regularly find yourself in loud environments, whether it’s a noisy workplace or a festival, acoustic earplugs can ensure you enjoy the full experience while reducing the sound to a safer level.
Why you should wear acoustic earplugs
Prolonged exposure to loud noises can put you at risk of hearing damage:
- When noise levels are at 85 decibels (equivalent to the noise of heavy city traffic), it can take 8 hours before you’re at risk of potential hearing damage
- When noise levels reach 91 decibels (like a loud car radio), possible damage can occur after 2 hours without hearing protection
- At 100 decibels (the level of a nightclub), hearing damage can occur after just 15 minutes without hearing protection
Hearing damage can include noise-induced hearing loss as well as conditions like tinnitus (an irritating ringing in your ears which can be caused by exposure to loud noises).
It’s important, then, to protect your ears if you’re going to be exposed to loud noises, whether that’s at work or in your leisure time. But you don’t necessarily want to block out all noise. At work, you need to be easily able to hear your colleagues, and at concerts and other events, you want to be able to hear everything that’s going on.
Acoustic earplugs are designed to retain the clarity and richness of sound, making them the perfect choice for everyone from professionals to music lovers. They protect your ears from potentially harmful noise levels, without muffling the sound – meaning you can enjoy the full experience.

Why Loop Earplugs are your best option
Unlike traditional earplugs that muffle sound waves, the best acoustic earplugs allow you to still hear everything perfectly – just at a lower volume. That’s exactly what Loop Experience earplugs do. They’re specially designed with acoustic technology to enhance your auditory experience:
- Acoustic resonance: sound waves enter Loop Experience earplugs through a small opening, then travel through the hollow channel on the inside of the earplugs, mimicking the ear’s function to ensure the sound remains natural
- Advanced filter: at the end of the sound tube is an acoustic filter which reduces all frequencies equally
- Closing the ear canal: this further reduces noise levels to a safer level, by creating a physical barrier that prevents noise from entering your eardrum
This technology allows Loop Experience to offer Up to 18 dB (SNR) and 7 dB (NRR) of noise reduction, or a further 5 dB with the Loop Experience Plus.
They come with a choice of ear tip sizes so you can find the perfect fit for you, and the tips are made from super soft silicone so they’re comfortable to wear for hours on end. Plus, because they’re reusable, you can wear them over and over again in a variety of different situations, from your morning commute to your place of work, to after-work drinks, and weekend sporting events.
