These fit more securely, but I’m not sure I get the best effect with them, comparatively, so I often use them in situations when I might lose the standard size. They’re perfect for reducing anxiety in social situations without impacting your ability to chat and connect. For example wearing them to bed you'd manage to keep them in for say 30 mins probably, rolling over or head movement will dislodge them. I didn’t have a chance to try the Loop Experience at a concert – they’re sensory overload minefields for me – but I can imagine these would be firm winners for festivals and gigs. Calmer Kids is made from a safe, soft and durable silicone which comes in four colours (Red, Yellow, Blue and Translucent).

It takes us a second to realize, another dog has just ran away due to the loud 4th of July firework show. If I was in a noisy bar or at a concert, I doubt the Calmer would have made a noticeable difference. In this guide, we’re going to road test the Calmer and see how they perform as an everyday hearing accessory, with an emphasis on how well they reduce stress in noisy environments. We also bring peace of mind to many pet parents who want to provide their own dog hearing protection, and will share in their own words. As a result, this produces a much more even response and therefore an improved and more pleasant sound.The result is a natural way to minimise today’s constant barrage of environmental noise stressors, which have a negative impact on our mental and physical wellbeing by removing distortion that would usually trigger the human ‘fight or flight’ response. But because auditory sensitivities can affect people all day and every day, there are different requirements for usage, style, and the amount of noise that’s blocked out.

Calmer sits barely visible in the ear and uses revolutionary, non-electric technology to reduce mid and high frequency distortion without having a detrimental effect on our hearing. Every pair of Calmer Kids includes 1x Flare carry pouch, a handy user guide and is supplied in 100% recyclable packaging. Some of these earplugs were undoubtedly more comfortable, thanks to the soft ear tips with a choice of sizes. I'm looking into getting some type of ear plugs that help with reducing high frequencies and loud noises yet still allow me to talk with people. Each set comes in a variety of colors—from black to gold to pastel mint—so they’re a stylish option compared to other reusable earplugs.Some people have the inattentive type, while others have hyperactivity – and each comes with its own unique set of symptoms. The Calmer earplugs by Flare Audio, for example, claim to “minimise stressful sounds”, allowing you to “focus on important ones. While this response was a vital part of our evolution to alert us to the slightest sound or threat, in today’s modern world where we no longer need to be alert to the snap of a twig, this added resonance is loading us with unnecessary stress.

The breakthroughs and innovations that we uncover lead to new ways of thinking, new connections, and new industries.The result is a natural way to minimise today’s constant barrage of environmental noise stressors which have a negative impact on our mental and physical well-being. A Loop Mute add-on inserted into the ring of either of these sets reduces volume by an additional 5dB. This will give less attenuation than traditional foam plug but lets them design the filter shape to some extent," Davies says. This happens on most flights, and because it is a loud noise, Emma jumps a little every time it happens.
