3.1. Ear Tip Selection

The Loop Switch 2 comes with four different ear tip sizes (XS, S, M, L) to ensure a comfortable and effective seal. Size M ear tips are pre-installed on the earplugs. Experiment with each size to find the best fit for your ears. A proper fit is crucial for optimal noise reduction and comfort.

4. Operating Modes

The Loop Switch 2 features an in-ear dial to easily switch between three noise relief modes:

  • Quiet Mode: Provides the strongest noise reduction (20 dB SNR) for deep focus, travel, commuting, or relaxation.
  • Experience Mode: Reduces volume (17 dB SNR) while maintaining sound quality, ideal for concerts, festivals, live entertainment, and sporting events.
  • Engage Mode: Takes the edge off background noise (14 dB SNR) while keeping speech clear for easier conversations in social gatherings or parenting situations.

To switch modes, gently rotate the manual dial on the earplug while it is in your ear. The enhanced grip allows for effortless adjustment.

4.1. Understanding Noise Reduction Levels

The noise reduction ratings (SNR) indicate the average amount of sound blocked by the earplugs. Higher numbers denote greater effectiveness. The Loop Switch 2 offers passive hearing protection and does not include batteries or electronics.

5. Maintenance

To ensure hygiene and longevity of your Loop Switch 2 earplugs, follow these cleaning guidelines:

  • Gently wipe the silicone ear tips with a soft, damp cloth after each use.
  • For a more thorough cleaning, remove the ear tips and wash them with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly and allow them to air dry completely before reattaching.
  • Clean the main body of the earplugs with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid submerging the entire earplug in water.
  • Store the earplugs in their provided carry case when not in use to protect them from dust and damage.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your Loop Switch 2 earplugs, consider the following:

  • Insufficient Noise Reduction: Ensure you are using the correct ear tip size for a snug fit. A loose fit can significantly reduce effectiveness. Also, verify that the mode dial is set to your desired noise reduction level.
  • Discomfort: If the earplugs feel uncomfortable, try a different size of ear tip. The earplugs should fit securely without causing pressure or pain.
  • Difficulty Switching Modes: Ensure the earplugs are properly seated in your ear. The dial should rotate smoothly. If it feels stiff, check for any debris.
