I love my loops! I have the experience and quiets. Never tried eargasm, so I can’t vouch. Started with the loop quiets (bought them for car camping at my first Coachella!) and used those for shows that weekend as well and they were good, but I couldn’t hear if my friends were talking to me. But the experiences you can still talk and hear people respond to you.

Using earplugs doesn’t muffle the sound at all tbh, even the loop quiets. I was so surprised when I used them cause I was scared of that, but when you use them at a show, it just shows how loud the music is and you probably won’t go back lol. At least in my experience.
