I love your review girl! i am autistic aswel and the first loops i ordered where the Quiet one's for sleep. they where definitly a sleep saver and i mostly end up using them during the daytime aswel, because its just to much to handle, the daily life. So i also ordered the Engage one's and patiently waiting!
As a musician, I’ve got our whole band wearing Eargasms. It was the first nicer ear protection, beyond cheap foam plugs, I have purchased and I’ve been quite pleased. With their little keychain tin, they are always on me. I also do photography in our community for the city and county; when I’ve had to get up close to a band, or just going out to concerts, I am so tickled hearing protection is at the ready. Thanks for the fab vid. I’ve been curious about the Loops.
Thank you so much for this review ❤ I have the Flare. I have been looking at both Loop and Eargasm for me and my son. Me, because I have frequently migraines which I believe led to me developing misophonia and hyperacusis. My son, who is on the autism spectrum and is also very sound sensitive. I have been extra curious about the Switch since it’s 3-in-one, but since you don’t recommend it, I’m now leaning towards not getting that one. I have another question… which one would you recommend for sleep? I have been using for ear plugs, but would like a more sustainable solution 😊
Could you elaborate on why you don't like the loop switch? I have the engage and I honestly quite like the occlusion effect when I'm alone, because it gives me something consistent to focus on, but it's annoying when talking to someone - your video finally convinced me to try the flare calmer.
Thinking about loop quiet for sleep, but with needing to be present for parenting which do you find yourself reaching for first? I don’t love the thought of occlusion, but if it helps with noise sensitivity, I could get used to it!
I reach for my engage for day to day as they reduce occlusion and allow me to hear my kids. For sleep I have just tried BetSlumber and love them. Watch this space for an intro video!
Great video PHD! I'm still divided though. I haven't been diagnosed but my brother has auditory processing disorder and we very much have the same symptoms. I don't have a problem with thinking clearly or being calm and am not neuro spicy but in loud environments, I'm lucky to pick up every third word of someone talking directly to me. I thought the loop engage but maybe the flare is better. I also only have headphones not earbuds because things fall out of my ear easily. Which do you reckon?
I'm autistic and possibly have some auditory processing oddities. I have a low-tech suggestion for you (doesn't help a ton but it's free), as well as a high-tech suggestion. The low-tech suggestion is to simply cup your hands forward over your ears and lean in a bit. It might feel a bit a bit awkward doing so, but it's also something that "normal" people occasionally do to indicate that it's simply too loud for them to hear the other person, and even signal that they'd like to move to somewhere quieter. As far as high-tech, I imagine that a combination of 1) active noise cancellation to minimize overall sound, plus 2) a directional microphone to then pipe in exclusively sound that's in front of you, 3) noise isolation (i.e. what earplugs do, because ANC can only do so much especially for dynamic sounds) and 4) for bonus points, only if you can find it in a device with the other two features (because they're more important), digital signal processing to prefer vocal frequencies, should help a ton. Here's what looks like a good overview of some specific features to consider, as well as products, spanning from prescription devices to OTC hearing aids to "normal" earbuds: www.hearingtracker.com/hearing-aids/best-hearing-aids-background-noise *** In any case, I'm certain that a professional audiologist would be able to provide you specific recommendations for good devices with these characteristics. I've done a little bit of research, and it looks like appropriate devices certainly exist. ***
Hi! I could use your opinion !! So I cannot figure out which would be best for myself and can't really afford to try them all at once. Id like to know your best GUESS as to which to try first.... My son was diagnosed with Sensory processing disorder (4 years old possible ADHD or autism) and I'm starting to notice some likeness with myself but one thing I'm struggling hard with is the constant repetitive noises from my son. I never noticed this until I had my son but maybe because it's more in quiet situations but either way it drives me insane and i think it's more than my ADHD. I'm wondering if these will help because in the meantime I become irritable with my son and I feel awful about it after because I don't want to dampen his personality just to make myself comfortable ! So if I'd VERY MUCH appreciate your feedback!
Hey! I’d be glad to help! Because you need to hear your son but dampen down triggering sounds for you I’d recommend the loop engage. They will allow you to concentrate and still be a present parent but give you some peace 💜 loop-earplugs.sjv.io/5gQRN2
I’m curious about this too. Can you wear your hearing aids with any of these? I have significant hearing loss in one ear, but I’m also struggling with sounds as a neurodivergent. I’m looking into these type of ear plugs but don’t know how to implement them….wear one and keep my hearing aid on?
I play a lot of musical instruments and my accordion, chord organ, and my concertina are quite loud- especially my chord organ. I would also like to use the same earplugs I would use for my instruments so that I can spend time with my dad while still hearing clearly (he talks very loudly and listens to the TV very loudly due to hearing loss). In addition, I hate the occlusion effect many earplugs create. I was wondering which earplugs you'd recommend for my situation?
It's interesting how you talk about ear plugs but you were hearing aids why would you wear ear plugs if you have hearing aids you just won't be able to hear with ear plugs
Hey! I have 30% hearing loss and fast processing to sounds plus sensory issues to sounds being neurodivergent. I will make a video explaining this further. Also, to add even with hearing loss you need to protect the hearing you have 💜✨
i was looking at videos in this topic for kinda an hour, and here you are, everything you need to know in 3 minutes! thank you :)
You are so welcome!🤗
Thank you for this great, simple, to the point tutorial. I will watch it again I think before my purchase.

Your video is my favorite so far of the numerous I’ve watched for reviews on earplugs. Thank you for keeping it educational and straight to the point.

hey, im autistic as well and also have quiet loops and also was wondering to order engage plus ones. do they differ much from quiet ones? thank you!
@@aidanabolat1244 the engage differ hugely! 💜

For sleep I highly recommend the Ropone sonic guard ropone.us/?sca_ref=5613444.gW8oYkqQZd

Sure, I don’t like the switch because of the occlusion, the feel of them to touch and also how big they feel in my ear ☺️

For the Eargasm ones would you recommend the Smaller Ears version?

Hey! I wear loops with my hearing aids and I wear eargasms for loud music etc when I don’t need my aids 💜
I just use blue tac. Works great and save myself a lot of money.
Well, if it works!!
Are those loop engage for kids? Planning to get the blue berry one but i am an adult
Yes they are! I have tiny ears so use the kids ones 💜✨

Because they have 30% hearing loss, not 100%.
