Unlike traditional foam earplugs that block and muffle sounds, Vibes filter acoustics, meaning that they lower decibels (by an average of \u003cb\u003e22 dB\u003c\/b\u003e across frequencies) without sacrificing sound quality. In other words, Vibes lower the volume of live music to a safer, more comfortable level, while still allowing you to hear the music clearly. Vibes' clear design makes them virtually invisible, allowing you to be discreet about wearing hearing protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n        \u003cp\u003eEach pair also includes a pocket-sized carrying case and three sizes \u003cb\u003e(S, M, L)\u003c\/b\u003e of interchangeable eartips to ensure a comfortable fit for any sized ear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n        \u003cp\u003eVibes is partnered with Hear the World Foundation, a global hearing health charity.

Traditional foam earplugs are only decreasing the volume of high frequency (treble) sounds, but not low frequency (bass) sounds, which is what causes the sound that you hear to be distorted when you wear them. On the other hand, Vibes lower the volume of all sounds equally, from bass to treble, which allows you to hear sound clearly, just at a quieter volume.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike traditional foam earplugs that block and muffle sound, Vibes filter sound. Using specially designed sound tubes that balance sound waves, and sound-enhancing acoustic filters that reduce decibel levels, Vibes allow you to protect your hearing health and stay comfortable in loud environments that would otherwise cause discomfort and hearing damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"col-sm\"\u003e\n      \u003ch3\u003eWHY THE WORLD NEEDS VIBES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur modern world is loud. Until relatively recently, the loudest sounds in the world were things like a lion's roar and claps of thunder, so we never had a need to be able to process sounds louder than that. Now, when we encounter sounds like giant speakers at concerts or race car engines, our ears become strained and our ability to hear is damaged, because they aren't designed to be able to handle sounds that loud. Vibes allow you to experience the loud world we find ourselves in safely and comfortably, without inhibiting your ability to hear or communicate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eEACH PURCHASE INCLUDES\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 pair of earplugs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 interchangeable fit sizes (small, medium, large)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePocket sized hard case for easy storage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eShould I wear earplugs at concerts?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe science says, yes. The average concert is around a range of 98db - 110db and irreversible hearing damage can occur as low as 85db.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAre these only for live music?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo, although the primary use is for live music, Vibes helps increase speech intelligibility (compared to foam). In other words, you can still talk\/hold conversation while wearing them. People find them useful in any loud situation where you are looking to lower decibel levels but still hear clearly.
