Etymotic Research ER20 High-Fidelity Earplugs (White with Clear Stem)

very good but I lost them the day I tried them out but really good would buy again for my next show

I have tinnitius from loud music. It's very quiet and subtle, but it's there. I am no stranger to the extra loud tinnitus after a gig or night out, I always knew from those experiences that I should buy plugs but didn't until it was too late.Never again though. I'm not letting what I already have get worse, as I am quite lucky to have it as quiet as I do. I bought these and they have accompanied me to several gigs now.They are very comfortable to me, but I have never had issue with earbuds. They stay in quite well, even at the middle centre of a venue during pits and all. I only had to push one back in a little one time.A friend of mind also bought a pair at my recommendation. He told me that they were uncomfortable, but he got quite used to them after a while. He hate earbuds completely, so I think that's a credit to these plugs.Leaving gigs with no further ear damage than I already had <3

These little friends here do what they are supposed to do. They filter noisy levels of sound, and the quality of sound isn't reduced. You can hear what other people say in loud environments.I find these plugs usable in clubs, venues, concerts, or noisy places that can cause ear damage from the high levels of sound that can reach you.Just beware about colors and sizes. I dont know this well, and i would like it to be specified in the product information, but i think that colors are related to the size of the plugs. I bought these white pair of plugs and i think that they are large size, still they fit me well.To put them well just make sure to follow the instructions that come with them, believe me that they will make easier to put them, and they will fit better and filter better.They dont slip nor fall off your ears, so you can be sure that you can talk, walk, run, jump, dance, bla bla bla.You sure will hear your voice funny, just like when you put your fingers inside your ears.Now, for Djs i found these to be great. as it will help you take care of you ears. With huge headphones and with moderate care, you can put your headphones, while wearing the plugs. That I found great because they will protect your ears really well, and you can still hear the music with great quality. Even if these cant be used with your headphones, try then the surefire, because they don't have the little stick outside your ear, and can be used with headphones.I compared them with another plugs, and so far these can filter great the noise and still get nice quality of music and voice from other people. Will buy another pair in a different color :D

Fantastic in live music situation. My only gripe is that the material irritates my ears after an hour or so. Ones I have had previously fave not had this effect on me

Regular concert goer. 12 - 20 shows a year. I have been using these for about 2 yrs. Can be somewhat uncomfortable after extended use. These do the trick audio wise however. Unlike, foam earplugs, I can still enjoy the show with good sound quality and no ringing ears after the show.
