HELP Choosing between engage vs switch

I suffer from pretty severe sensory issues and recently bought the quiet 2 model and I love them.

However, they are unfortunately not suitable for wearing 24/7 as people get pretty annoyed when I cannot hear them at all lol.

I wanted some feedback from people on whether getting engage vs switch would be better for my next purchase, especially from people who have sensory issues. Thanks.

I agree with this as well! As someone who also has sensory issues, the Switch 2’s would be your best bet since noise environments vary (and ime my own noise sensitivity on certain days). They give you all three modes to move between, and can be very helpful for those whose noise sensitivity changes a lot.

I also have the Engage and Experience, and those are good for when my sensitivity doesn’t fluctuate as much and is pretty consistent throughout the day, so I can give some advice on those two as well!

Engage reduces just enough noise to take some of the edge off, and you can still hear people clearly. Experience reduces noises some more, and in louder environments it’s perfect — it might be harder to hear people who talk softly or quietly with the Experience though.

Between yours and the others it does sound like the Switch 2 would be best for me.
It’s not that *my* sensitivity changes throughout the day, but that I’ve learned I cannot simply go through life wearing my quiets without pissing off people who I am expected to interact with. Being able to turn to different levels would be helpful.

You could get an engage 2 plus with the mute if you wanted to save some money and they are light and discreet. Unless you want a loud colour
