Love your hearing
Decibels (dB) are a unit of measurement of how loud a sound is. Ear plugs are designed to reduce the noise level by a certain amount of decibels, protecting your ears from loud sounds. A protection of 7-25dB means you can reduce the noise levels by that amount. For example, if an ear plug says it has a 16dB protection, it means it reduces the loudness of the environment by 16dB. For reference, sound doubles in intensity every 3db, so a decrease of 16dB is significant.
