Ms. GadgetWhat do you mean by “new sensation”?
Mr. GadgetIt has a stylish design that is a far cry from conventional earplugs!
In recent years, hearing loss in modern people has become a problem, and earplugs have been attracting attention.
The 『Loop Experience Plus』 that I will review this time is so close to an accessory in appearance, and the quality of the sound that is reduced but still audible is clear, which surprised me very much.
So, I will write about the pros and cons of “Loop Experience Plus” and who I recommend it to.

Actual Usage Experience
Sound Quality… Quite Clear! But Lacking in Resonance and Impact
Regarding sound quality, my honest impression is ” I can’t believe I can reduce the volume so much and still hear the sound clearly “.
The noise reduction is just right, and the surrounding noise is clearly reduced when you wear them.
It feels like the earplugs are selecting the sounds they pick up.
However, the sound lacks a bit of resonance, impact, and depth.
Mr. GadgetSimply put, the sound feels shallow overall.
I listened to various types of music, and I felt that it definitely has its strengths and weaknesses depending on the song.
It’s pretty good for pop music, and songs where the human voice is prominent are generally good.
On the other hand, it’s not suitable for music with a lot of high and low frequencies, such as rock and metal, or instrumental music.
Mr. GadgetProbably the high and low frequencies, resonance, and impact are sounds that are harmful to the ears, and also “ringing” sounds for people with hyperacusis.
Considering that, I think the sound quality is doing a good job in that it can be heard clearly.
If you’re tired of the loudness of live music, I recommend you try it!

Noise Reduction… Appropriately Reduces to a Certain Extent
First of all, the “Loop Experience Plus” is not a product aimed at completely blocking sound, but rather a product that aims to reduce surrounding noise while prioritizing sound quality.
Therefore, it’s not recommended for people who want to completely block sound, and it wasn’t made for that purpose in the first place.
The noise reduction is numerically 18dB, and with the Loop Mute attached, it’s 23dB, which reduces the sound.
Ms. GadgetThe Loop Mute is only included with the plus version.
For example, according to Japan Noise Research, 70dB is “quite noisy. It’s difficult to have a conversation without speaking loudly. Noisy office”, and 50dB is “normal conversation is possible. Quiet office”, so even a 20dB reduction significantly reduces the surrounding noise.
Mr. GadgetIt’s just my personal impression, but when I put them on, the surrounding noise was reduced more than I expected.
Also, if you want more noise-canceling earplugs or earplugs specifically for everyday use, sleep earplugs might be a good option.
Wide Variety of Ear Tips!
The top two rows are the foam ear tips (S, M, L) that are also included with the plus version.
The bottom two rows are the silicone ear tips (XS, S, M, L)
The regular version only includes silicone ear tips (XS, S, M, L), but the plus version also includes foam ear tips (S, M, L).
Mr. GadgetHaving a lot of choices is a good thing!
Stylish Design!
It has a very stylish design that doesn’t look like earplugs at all.
Mr. GadgetWhen I first saw it, I thought it looked like an accessory!
(Quoted from official HP)
It’s very fashionable compared to conventional earplugs.
Ms. GadgetIt feels natural to wear and doesn’t feel like you’re wearing anything!
It’s more comfortable to wear than conventional ones.
Mr. GadgetHowever, it’s so compact that it’s easy to lose…
Ms. GadgetIt’s a good thing that it’s functional and stylish!

So Light You Forget You’re Wearing It!
The “Loop Experience Plus” main unit is only 1.0g per ear, which is very light.
Mr. GadgetIt really feels like you’re not wearing anything!
It’s so light and comfortable that you really forget you’re wearing it.
Also, it weighs only 6.6g with the case, which is incredibly light.
A 500 yen coin weighs 7.0g, so it’s lighter than a 500 yen coin!
Too Small, Easy to Lose
As you can see in the picture above, it’s smaller than an eraser when put in the case.
It weighs a little less than a 500 yen coin, and is a little bigger in size, so it’s practically a 500 yen coin?
It’s compact, so you can carry it anywhere and it doesn’t take up much space.
Mr. GadgetHowever, it’s so compact that it’s easy to lose.
Ms. GadgetI think it would be a good idea to attach a strap to the ring!
Summary
Truly a Revolutionary Earplug!
The “Loop Experience Plus” overturns the conventional image of earplugs with its design, functionality, and everything else.
It’s so cool in appearance that it can be said to be almost an accessory, and I was surprised by its stylish design, clear sound quality, and appropriate noise reduction.
It’s also ultra-lightweight and compact, and has no drawbacks.
Also, loop sells the live earplugs “Loop Experience”, earplugs for travel, and various other products, so I recommend you check them out this time!
