Comply Foam - Ideal Eartips for Loud Work Environments
Posted by
onWhen most people think of loud workspaces, they envision roaring chainsaws, bellowing vehicle engines and blaring music at nightclubs. But as many office workers can attest, traditionally “quiet” work environments can be just as noisy—particularly when thin walls or obnoxiously chatty coworkers are thrown into the mix. In fact, even getting to work can be a tinnitus-inducing experience for commuters, who often need to combat the rumble of a car, bus or subway each morning. Luckily, with the right pair of earbud tips, you can rid your working experience of loud, distracting noises for good.
At Hearing Components, it’s our mission to create awe-inspiring listening experiences for every audio enthusiast. Our Comply™ earbud tips are designed to maximize the comfort, grip and sound isolation of in-ear headphones, allowing you to enjoy your audio to the fullest. We also understand how challenging it can be to focus on your work and enjoy yourself when your workplace is filled with noisy machines, music or conference calls. So today, we’ll be discussing how you can find high-quality eartips that will help you fend off undesirable noises at work. But before we jump in, let’s take a moment to review why it’s so important to protect your ears from these sounds.
The Dangers of Noisy Workplaces
It’s no secret that prolonged exposure to loud work environments can cause permanent hearing loss—and contribute to workplace accidents by inhibiting communication and concentration. Even if your workplace isn’t dangerously noisy, all those distractions are more than likely to impact your mood and performance, resulting in stress, decreased productivity and, worst of all, longer work days. In any case, it’s in your best interest to protect your ears (and your sanity) from all those disruptive sounds.
Many employees use in-ear headphones to block out external noises at work. Regrettably, most earbuds don’t have the sound isolation required to eliminate these sounds, which causes users to crank the volume on their device higher and higher, damaging their ears. That’s why it’s so important to invest in eartips with robust sound isolation when you’re upgrading your in-ear headphones for loud work environments.
How Do Sound Isolation Eartips Work?
The problem with typical eartips is that they allow audio to pass around your earphones, letting external noise in while leaking internal audio. Tips that are designed specifically for sound isolation utilize unique features to address this issue. For example, our Comply™ Isolation products are ten times thicker than standard silicone eartips, providing twice the external audio reduction. These tips also leverage a bullet-shaped design to trap low-frequency energy inside your ear, allowing you to listen to your audio at lower volumes without compromising the clarity or quality of your listening experience. Another key factor that makes eartips effective at isolating sound is their length. Earbud tips that are longer will sit deeper in your ear canal than conventional products, providing a more snug fit that keeps external noise out and internal audio in.
Regardless of which audio brand you look into, we highly recommend prioritizing foam tips for your workplace. High-quality foam tips will conform to the shape of your ear canal as it reacts to shifts in temperature and body movement, maintaining a tight, comfortable fit that maximizes sound isolation. The versatility of foam earbud tips makes them a must-have for active employees. If you’re constantly on the move at work, you’ll need tips that can adapt to match the size and shape of your ever-changing ear canals. Whether you work on a construction site, a factory or a fast-paced office, foam tips are the best way to ensure your earbuds keep pace with you.
Do You Need Sound Isolation Eartips?
At the end of the day, there are many ways to make loud work environments more manageable. One very effective tactic is to wear a pair of earmuffs over your earbuds. The muffs will lock all the audio from your earbuds inside and keep external aural distractions out, allowing you to focus on the sounds you actually enjoy for a change. It’s not the most subtle or fashionable setup, but it’ll work very well in most work environments. You can pick up a nice pair of earmuffs online for under five dollars, so there’s no harm in trying this approach out to see if it suits you. You can always upgrade to sound isolation tips later if you’d like to explore that avenue, too.
