   Loop earbuds were so good at the concert last night. No ringing ears and I don't feel like I missed anything. I wish I hadn't waited until I was in my 40s to start wearing them at shows.

     @samebchase Oh sorry! I called them "earbuds" and not "earplugs" originally.

     @annika I went to the website and read multiple articles, but I am not able to understand how they work.

     Is it some noise cancellation thing that requires them to be charged, or is it some physical device that permits less sound into your ears?

     Never mind, found this https://www.reddit.com/r/neurodiversity/comments/1kd3v0p/do_loop_earplugs_actually_cancel_noise_or_are/

     @annika
     They changed my life so much. I wear them often in bars, restaurants... Especially places with different people talking at the same time.
     It helps me focus on the person I am talking to.

     @annika My wife and I started wearing Loop earplugs to live music events about a 9 months ago, and we haven't looked back.
