What level of sound reduction does Loop Engage Plus offer?Updated a year ago

Noise intensity is measured in decibels (dB). The higher the intensity, the more noise reduction is needed to safeguard your hearing.


Loop Engage Plus provides up to 16 dB (SNR) / 10 dB (NRR) of noise reduction. The optional Loop Mute accessory reduces noise by an additional 5 dB.


Check out the attenuation table below:
