EargasmSmaller Ears Earplugs - Blue High Fidelity Filtered Noise Reducing Reusable Ear-Plugs for Kids, Women, Men - Hearing Protection for Live Concerts, Motorcycles, Festivals, Sporting Events

I'm an avid concert goer and been using Loops Experience earplugs for several months before I lost them recently. I love going to concerts but using earplugs really helps protect my hearing from how often I go and prevent the headaches I would experience after an event. I took the prime day deal as an opportunity to try out the eargasm earplugs to see which earplugs are better (spoiler: the eargasms win). Here is a lengthy review using the Loops Experience as a comparison to help those in the future who are struggling to pick between the two.For context, I am a woman in their 20s so my ears are a bit small. For example, for my Airpod Pros, I use XS eartips if that helps. Even for the Loops, I had to use the smallest eartip and they never once fell out of my ear even when I went to heavy metal concerts. They were also very comfortable to wear. For the eargasms, I never really had an issue of them falling out but I do admit that I have not tried them out in a setting where I'm moving alot or stuck in a mosh pit. They are also very comfortable.It's also a bit upsetting the lack of colors and extreme price differences for the eargasms. I would love to rock some cute pink earplugs if it weren't an extra $10-$15. The loops are more stylish and have more color options without having to spend an extra couple dollars to get the color you want.Now on to the REAL reason why I choose the eargasms over loops: the occulation. Although the loops are WAY more stylish, it's not great if hearing yourself bothers you. When you wear the loops, everything you say is enhanced so you hear even more of yourself while breathing, singing, swallowing, etc. They do a great job of dulling down other people's singing/talking while allowing you to hear the band/singer (but it also makes it difficult to hear the person next to you like a friend). Admittedly, I have not used the eargams in a very loud setting like concerts as of yet, but I used them the other day when I was at a bar with many people around. The noise was very overwhelming but the eargasm made my experience way better. It toned out the loud noise but I was still able to hear clearly. But I never had an issue with my earplugs falling out of my ears as of yet compared to other reviewers.Another thing worth noting is that there was only about a 2 decibel difference between my old Loops and the eargasm but I feel like the eargasms allow more clarity for the music whereas the loops emphasized the bass. The quality of the music was overrall much better on the eargasms.The case of the eargasms is also very exceptional. Very secure and sturdy as the lid needs to be screwed on. It is a bit chunky for my keychain but not a big deal. The loops case lasted me for a while before the string that connected the case to my keychain broke, hence why I lost them :(The only reason why I'm giving the eargasms a 4-star is simply because I haven't tried them out in a concert setting which is the main reason why I bought these earplugs. However, based on everything I written above, I really do like them and hope to change the review to a five star after my next concert outing.update: so after going to the charli xcx/troy sivan sweat tour (was in pit and had a spot at the barricade) i can officially change the rating to five stars. I was less than 6 feet away from the performers for majority of the time and these earplugs did its job!!! I left the venue without any ringing or hearing loss. Despite jumping around and dancing, the plugs stayed in place. Granted, i did feel like I had to press on them at least twice to make sure they stayed in place. But that is to be EXPECTED based on the situation I was in. I also used them in several other concerts but this experience really solidified my opinion. The sound quality was also really great and a huge improvement over the loops. Will be a repeating customer if I ever lost my current pair of eargasms!

These are awesome! But reduce noise very well and they are so comfortable! I wear them in a fitness studio 8 plus hours a day and playing hours of pickleball indoors! Great for both! I have small head and ears so the small size is perfect for me! They work really well to prevent ringing in the ears being around loud environments, filter, dampen the noise well and can still hear great conversation I highly recommend these. I tried out others and couldn't get past the lack of comfort To acknowledge their performance. These are awesome!

These were exactly what I was looking for. I have pretty mild tinnitus, and I don't want to make it worse if I can help it. I've owned them for 11 months now and I've worn them out a number of times now and they've been great! For me, they hit a good balance where I don't get the post live music event ear ringing that I usually get, but I can also still hear my friends when they speak directly to my ear (which is usually necessary in places with loud music anyway). I have small ear canals and I'm always picking the smallest adapter on earbuds, so I went with the Eargasm earplugs for small ears, and they fit well! I also like the carrying case. The earplugs are so small I could definitely lose one if not for the case. The case fits well in my purses that I wear going out, so it's not an inconvenience to bring them with me. I also like that they're discreet when they're in my ears. To my knowledge, no one has ever noticed them when I've worn them (I got the transparent earplugs with the transparent core). A small anecdote about my experience with them: once when me and my friends left a bar, they all said their ears felt like they had cotton balls in them, but I felt perfectly fine! Every time I wear these out, I'm so grateful I brought them!

So let me start off by staying what was right, because it outweighs the bad. First off all, they do what they claim to do. I tested them at home by playing music at full volume. I listened to a song and noticed no muffled or lost tone, so I actually thought they might not be working at all. But I pulled them out and found the music way too loud. This proved to me that there was no quality loss, just the volume was reduced to a bearable level. Passed.Now I have been avoiding concerts for years due to an ear injury which makes loud noise painful. But, since I heard about these, I thought it might finally be time to see a band I've loved for 15 years. So I wore them to a concert. At first I thought I wouldn't even need them, the music was, surprisingly, at decent level. But then three teenagers sat in front of me, drunk and screaming. They screamed, talked, and sung so loud it hurt my ear injury. So I put just one ear plug, in the injured ear, facing where they were sitting. I could still ear them, but they were dialed down to a reasonable level. Everyone else in my row was glaring at them, rightfully so, but I had a secret volume knob they didn't. Then it came time for a ballad. The singer floated on a piano over top of the audience, it was beautiful. I got out my phone and recorded it, and could hear him singing perfectly. I even actually had eargasms. (Though that was likely due to Brendon Urie, but ya know.) Then after the concert I watched what I had filmed. Wouldn't ya know it, those teens were carrying on a very loud conversation the whole number, so that you could not even hear the singing. That made me realize even more why everyone else was glaring at them. They were so loud you actually couldn't hear the concert. Unless you had Eargasm earplugs! I was the only one able to hear the band, over the fools carrying on in front of me. For that reason I will be using these at every loud event. Also, my ear injury barely hurt during and no ringing afterwards.So, why only four stars? Number one, they made my ears itchy. The material caused my ear to produce wax and get very itchy, so I had to keep removing them, scratching my ear, and wiping them off. So that is not ideal. Also, I wore the smallest buds, but my ear canals were still sore and achy afterwards from be stretched. Both of these problems could be easily solved with foam plugs. So they should get on that.Summary: The plugs leave much to be desired, but the filters are fantastic.
