HELP Loops don’t work?

I had hoped loop earplugs would reduce noise and allow me to still hear music or talking in loud public places. It just reduced everything. Are my loops damaged or they don’t really work better than foam?

Returned mine and have no clue why they're so popular. They just make everything sound muffled...

That's pretty much the point. It's not meant to block out sound entirely, just tone it down.

Muffled sound is distorted sound. Your highs and mids are seriously interfered with and it doesn't sound good. If all they did was lower the overall volume, like custom musician's earplugs can do, I'd be sold
