    Etymotic High-Fidelity Earplugs, ER20XS Standard Fit, 1 pair, Polybag Packaging

    • I am a live performance musician and have used a number of different hearing protection devices, including custom fitted ear inserts
    • so i got these to help protect my hearing.
    • Crystal clear clarity during extremely loud practices with enough attenuation to protect hearing
    • I lost hearing in 1 ear in 2009, these cut out the my car wind/engine noise and let me listen to the music and the kids when they all scream at once
    • so I hear all sort of loud noise that could easily damage your hearing
    • the trade-off for no noise "hangover" and peace of mind knowing my hearing will last was worth it
    • that's likely to be loud enough to damage your hearing
    • These earplugs help bring that noise level down to a tolerable and provide a ridiculously clear hearing experience.
    • These things do actually protect your hearing without completely muting the sound
    • Protect your hearing
    • Cuts the db just enough to preserve my hearing while not messing up the sound balance.
    • Wind noise is very high pitched and prolonged exposure to wind noise, like when riding motorcycles even with a helmet, can cause permanent hear loss and damage.
    • My ears didn't ring afterwards, and my hearing was perfectly fine the next day
    • I would highly recommend this product not just for musicians and others regularly exposed to loud noises, but also for people with sensitive hearing or anybody with concerns about hearing damage or - specifically - Tinnitus

    • These were recommended to me by my ENT Dr. because I suffered hearing loss on my job
    • These earplugs help protecting my hearing, especially when I need to move around and get closer to the DJ's speakers searching for the best angles for my shots

    • While these don't knock down as many decibels as other earplugs, they do allow you to hold a conversation or keep track of what is going around you audibly, while still protecting your hearing.
    • My work also has loud heavy machines which require hearing testing, these things have kept my hearing good while others have started to decline
    • I wear these to all musical events now to avoid ruining my hearing any further.
    • I'm not sure these are worth the high price for only one pair, although I'd probably buy again if only for the sake of protecting my hearing (after a few hours of extremely loud music, my hearing felt untouched)

    • Works as good or better than expensive custom earplugs!

    • Concerts are instantly more enjoyable as you can clearly hear everything that is going on, as well as saving your hearing for the next day
