Hearprotek Concert Ear Plugs, 2Pairs Reusable high Fidelity Musician Ear Plugs for Concerts Loud Music-Noise Reduction Ear Protection earplugs for Rave,Festival,Music,Tinnitus Relief

I wear foam earplugs to sleep and I always use high fidelity earplugs in other louder environments. I usually go with the Etymotic high fidelity earplugs with replacement foam ear tips (since the decibel rating is higher than the flange tips) as my go to pair.I visited my parents and my father's hearing is quite poor and as much as I love the man, he is too stubborn to get hearing aids. So watching TV seems like being in a rock concert.I usually bring my crutch high fidelity earplugs, but I forgot them on this trip. Long story short, I settled on this brand due to the reviews, price, the two pairs per set and I could get them with next day shipping with Prime. Etymotic was not available in that location for a few days, which was too long since it was a short trip.Overall, I feel that these earplug are high fidelity and the decibel rating is fair. I am not an expert, but the hearing protection was acceptable for my use and honestly better for the situation I was in. When I bring my go to set, sometimes they are almost a little too good and I have a hard time hearing lower sounds. Those though are great for concerts and generally tolerable in terms of comfort for most of the show. I am not sure that I would fully trust the Hearproteks at a concert for total protection, but it would most certainly go in the better than not having them category and I would be glad to have them. I have not tried them at a concert to say for sure.In terms of comfort, I found my ear feeling itchy at about an hour and a half. Sliding them slightly out helps with that. That is probably the price of protecting your ears and having good fidelity.The overall kit is nice. The carry case is okay and I had issues sometimes opening the case, but it was easy to get the plugs out due to the design. The cord they provide is also good quality and has an innate sticky feeling to them, which is good because it stay around your neck. My wife is using the smaller pair for walking dogs and going into the kennel runs. She likes how convenient it is to pop them in and then take them out and let them dangle from the cord around her neck.One very important tip that seems obvious, but I did not think about the first time I used them. There is a little pull tab on each plug to help get them out. Hold the tab as you push them into your ears to ensure the tab is available to take them out. My first time I just shoved them in and had a bit of a hard time removing them. I learned that lesson quick. I will spare anyone reading this far down in this review that situation I put myself in.Overall, a nice little set that is high fidelity, fairly priced, and a good value overall for the performance.

Last night, seeing progressive metal gods Elder, was the best concert of my life. These earplugs are better than I dreamed possible. My ears are not ringing AT ALL.All of a sudden, I can focus on each member of a band and hear their instrument. I can hear LYRICS. The bass, instead of a vague thud that blended with the drums, is distinct. I can hear how the bassist was holding the two guitars together. I've played a fair bit of rock guitar, enough to appreciate technical skill completely aside from the joy of the music, and I have never been able to really do that at a concert at will. It was always fleeting moments when the mix accommodated it.I feel a renewed desire to see live music on account of this experience. If these had been made available to me in1986 I would not have tinnitus.Physically, I barely noticed them. They are quite comfortable.

While being advertised for concert use, the design is remarkably similar (dare I say identical) to that of motorcycle earplugs, and so I decided to give them a go as a budget alternative to name-brand options.The contents of the kit are fairly nice, the included carrying tube is rugged and is able to be added to a keychain. The plugs themselves also come in two different sizes and have removable filters if you wish to make them louder. There is also a band to link the two together, although with a helmet, I doubt I'll ever use them. Inserting them is easy, and they don't protrude in a way where the helmet would displace them, even on my small ears.As far as functionality is concerned, I can safely say that they perform decently. The overall volume of wind noise and engine noise is reduced to the point where I no longer have ringing ears when arriving at my destination after longer (30+ minute) rides. Be aware however, that these will NOT perform at the same level as cheap foam earplugs designed to reduce noise as much as possible. These are designed in a way to still allow some sound to come through, while eliminating the more harmful frequencies. With these on, I can still hear the music coming from my in-helmet speakers, as well as the exhaust note from the bike. If you want something to block out as much noise as possible, foam plugs will outperform these any day of the week.Overall, these are great motorcycle specific earplugs that I would highly recommend to anyone looking to preserve their hearing while staying on a budget, and still enjoying the noise of riding a motorcycle.

Comes with a flexible material that keeps the two plugs together so I can have them around my neck when not in use. I sometimes wear them everyday because of how well it protects my ears from sudden loud noise while still able to hear my surroundings and my friends. When listening to music blasting with my headphones I'm still able to hear all the details (the quality is noticeably worse but still very much enjoyable) so this will be great to bring when I go to the Palace concert in March!
