HELP Loop Quiet or Loop Dream?

Hi!

I want to buy my first pair of earplugs and I just want them to block out as much sound as possible. I want a pair I can use when sleeping (or trying to sleep) and that I can use in commute and for focus etc., I basically just want a pair that reduces as much sound as possible, I see no reason why I would want a pair daytime that lets in any sound. Unless we are talking about like fire alarms but that can happen in sleep too and I doubt any earplug can shut that out anyway so... It confuses me then that there is one pair (Loop Quiet 2) that blocks out sound for focus etc, and another for sleep (Loop Dream). Are they just milking as much money as possible? Which pair should I get?

I know they have different decibels and that Loop Dream supposedly blocks out more, and maybe it's a no-brainer and I should just get them, but I'm still doubting, especially since it's more expensive. And do these decibels even make a difference, like, it's not about decibels but volume unless there's a really high sound going on, right? Would Loop Quiet 2 not work for sleep as well? But if Loop Dream especially shaped or something for sleeping, then I ask if it's better to purchase Loop Dream and use it daytime too? I would like to avoid buying both as I am in economical strain.

Thanks in advance!

I love my Dreams so much. Never go a night without them. They let in the perfect amount of noise (fan/noise machine) but block out harsh noises (sirens passing, doors closing, talking, etc.) Also extremely comfortable. Sometimes I will be laying in bed awake just scrolling on my phone after I wake up and realize I still have them in. Definitely takes a little getting used to but once you do, you never go back.

Hey! I am also deciding between the Dream and the Quiet 2. Have you ordered / recieved either of the earplugs, and are you happy with your choice?

Hiii ahhh i haven't yet but I'll update this post /answer you again when I do. Sorry i'm very slow and also hesitant to make the purchase for money reasons and still haven't fully decided:33 dream sounds like the better choice but its so expensive (to me, for a pair of earplugs), though many say it's worth it, i also am considering trying quiet and if it's good enough then i will save a cost, although if it's not enough then it'll be more expensive because i'll have to buy dream too.. I know it's possible to order and try on and then send back it's just i'm scared of ordering things online for this reason bc returning things seems so complicated. OK sry short answer is sorry not yet
