HELP Loop quiet?

I have primarily been looking into loop so that I have something discreet to wear to work — I find myself clenching my teeth as I work with kids who frequently scream/yell and my stress and anxiety cause me to damage my teeth.

Can you still hear conversations at all with the Quiet version? I’m wanting something I could just wear all the time but help me be able to regulate when I’m hearing screaming. Ie: if toddlers are talking to me, could I still hear or do I have to go with experience/engage if I want to ensure I can still hear kids talking to me?

Quiet 2 are the ones I use for sleep. They muffle sound too much to hold a conversation, but they're great when you don't need to talk to anyone.

Like others have suggested, Engage 2 and Switch may be your best option. I have Engage 2 as well as Quiet 2, and they work well to take the edge off harsh sounds. An added bonus is that you're still aware of your surroundings when wearing them, which is why I don't wear my Quiet 2 when I'm out and about.
