Flare Calmer Pro – Ear Plugs Alternative – Reduce Annoying Noises Without Blocking Sound – Premium Version - Soft Reusable Silicone with Aluminium Core - Black Ice

They do NOT block out all sounds, they aren’t supposed to, so don’t expect them to be like traditional earplugs. What they actually do for me is, if you are someone who experiences Misophonia as I do, they block out those ANNOYING sounds that feel like they are AMPLIFIED to the eXtreme and happening inside your skull, not merely somewhere in the room or vicinity of where you are. For example, imagine someone is eating chips, and they’re crinkling and crackling that chip bag like a fricking maniac, and crunching those chips so loudly you want to scream or worse, even though you may be a pacifist. Maybe they’re also clicking the end of their pen and sucking on it when they’re thinking of what to write, and when they do set pen to paper, they’re sCrAtChiNg on that paper so loudly you think you’ll go insane if they don’t stop IMMEDIATELY. These ear devices work by causing all of those noises to quiet down, no longer SCREAMING and RAGING inside your skull, driving you iNsAnE. Suddenly any and all of those noises take their proper place in your world, WAY in the background where they are no longer noticeable, as they should be, thank you very much. If you struggle with hearing mouth noises, if you have what others consider to be extreme overreactions to certain sounds, you too might be experiencing misophonia. If you do, I highly recommend giving these ear devices a try. They’ve helped me tremendously. I am not in any way compensated for my reviews. I try to help others sort through this site to avoid making purchases that won’t meet their needs, and hopefully help them find what they are actually looking for. Good luck! HTH!

C'est ma 3ème paire. Très satisfaite, excellent produit. Ce ne sont PAS des bouchons d'oreille. Pas vraiment. Si les personnes à la recherche de bouchons d'oreilles pouvaient cesser de baisser les notes, ce serait apprécié... Parce que Amazon risque d'arrêter d'en vendre et je ne peux plus vivre sans. Ce produit est fait pour vous si vous avez une sensibilité particulière aux bruits : - fatigue, maux de tête, acouphènes, grésillements fréquents dans les oreilles... - certains bruits vous sont insupportables : mastication, crissements, frottements... - que vous êtes exposés à des bruits de fond parasites et que cela vous gêne : classes bruyantes, open-space, route fréquentée, musique pour ceux qui bossent dans les magasins... Les FLARE Calmer n'étouffent pas les bruits. Ils ne les suppriment pas non plus. Ils les adoucissent, ils rendent les sons plus clairs et agréables. Quand je les mets c'est comme si mon cerveau se détendait instantanément, comme si je revenais d'une bonne sieste. Ça ne règle pas tout, mais ce produit rend le quotidien bien plus agréable !

I bought these because I have very sensitive hearing, and these really help take the edge off loud sounds and noises. I feel that I am a lot calmer in my day now as a result. I previously bought the original Flare Calmer earplugs, and they worked great, but I decided to splurge and get the Pro ones as well. They both definitely work, but I think the Pro ones do the best job. Really worth the purchase in my opinion.

They don’t stay in when you talk or move your jaw in anyway. So you can’t wear this when having a conversation. Which defeats the purpose of having them in the first place where you wanna socialise in a noisy place without being overly stimulated.

Macht nicht leiser und zuerst hat man das Gefühl, dass sie gar nichts verändern. Aber wenn man sie nach längerem Tragen rausnimmt, merkt man den Unterschied. Sie machen Geräusche weniger "raschelig", sanfter. Sie helfen auch in Umgebungen, in denen Gespräche aufgrund von Hall schwerer verständlich sind (z.B. bei mir: wenn aus dem Nebenbüro mir etwas zugerufen wird, verstehe ich es ohne Flare Calmer nicht, mit Flare Calmer schon). Die Alu-Variante finde ich - zu meiner Überraschung - noch leichter einzusetzen, als die normalen. Inwieweit sie akustisch nochmal einen Unterschied machen, habe ich noch nicht ausprobiert.
