Loud helmets are louder than quiet helmets while wearing earplugs as well.

I have a Shoei- shaped head, although I’ve enjoyed an Arai helmet or two. My current full face is a Shoei X14, and it is comfortable and of high quality. I particularly love the Transitions visor, which darkens and lightens per conditions, and has superb optical quality.
I have a Schubert’s C3 modular, quiet and solid, but after an hour plus, the pressure point on the forehead gets me. I’m about to buy an AGV Sport Modular or a KLIM 1200 modular, both seem to fit my specs.

Is the transitions shield worth the price? It’s almost three times the cost of a standard shield. I wear prescription glasses and have both regular and sunglasses but carrying the extra pair and changing between them can be a pain on a bike. Considering the transitions shield but $170 is tough to justify.
