💬 Real-World Scenarios

Open-plan office? Calmer or Extra can help take the edge off background chatter and keyboard clicks—Extra if it’s especially loud.

High-pressure sports, stage performance, or exam prep? Calmer Performance is tuned to keep you focused and in control without cutting you off from your environment.

Need more clarity without increasing volume? Calmer Pro offers maximum precision by reducing distortion without changing the volume. Ideal for people who want to reduce audio overwhelm while staying fully aware of their environment.

Does your child struggle in loud classrooms or busy settings? Calmer Kids offers a subtle way to ease overwhelm without blocking sound or causing isolation.


🎧 What About Filters?

Calmer, Calmer Extra, and Calmer Kids are compatible with Calmer® Filters. These optional inserts allow you to gently reduce volume even further when needed. If you’ve purchased filters for a non-compatible model by mistake, just get in touch and we’ll help.


✍️ A Quick Note on Changes

  • The current Calmer® model now uses our softest silicone as standard (shore hardness 30A). If you previously saw “Calmer Soft”—this is it.
  • We’ve also rolled our Nude and Nude-Translucent colours into the main Calmer range. They’re still available—just under the unified product listing.

🛒 Still Not Sure?

Start with Calmer® if you're unsure—it’s the most versatile option and supports filters if you want more control later. For louder environments, we recommend starting with the Calmer® Filter Add-On Pack so you can adjust the volume to your needs. If you prefer a ready-to-go solution with built-in reduction, go for Calmer® Extra. If your needs are clarity-specific or performance-based, consider Calmer® Pro or Performance. And for younger users, Calmer® Kids is purpose-built for smaller ears and also works with filters.

All Calmer products come with a 100-day money-back guarantee. Try them in real life. If it’s not right for you, send it back—no stress.
