Looking for recommendations for good ear protection during concerts. I want ear buds that don’t just muffle all the sound but limit higher unsafe frequencies while allowing you to still enjoy the music. I did a search and came up with a bunch of different kinds and varying reviews on amazon, I also asked my friend who is in the live audio business and he said I needed custom molded IEMs but that seemed a little over kill for me, even if it’s the best way.
This Site shows the common ones I’ve seen.
Thanks!
EDIT: thanks everyone for the reaponses, I will go through and look at each of the recommended solutioms works best for me.
I use eargasm ear plugs. They increase the clarity while decreasing the decibels. https://eargasm.com/products/eargasm-high-fidelity-earplugs?variant=44275577225517
I also use Eargasm earplugs. They work great. You can still hear the music and whoever you’re talking to next to you, but things are just quieter. I’ve even recommended them to my autistic friend who struggles with sound and they were an immediate convert.
Can’t go wrong.
The high dB attenuation inserts are def worth the money.
I own Alpine MusicSafe Pro earplugs, but they filter high/mid frequency too much. Guitars are way too silent at concerts and the sound gets very bass heavy. Do Eargasm plugs have similar problems or are things really just quieter?
I was wearing Eargasms when I saw the Smashing Pumpkins and I didn’t notice any problem like that.
