I have other brands of ear plugs, + various headphones, but these are in my pocket whenever I leave the house.Well, because they're enigineered to lower the sound level across all frequencies equally, it remains intelligible, voices are clear and there's no muffling. Made from soft silicone, these generic noise suppressors fit any ear and provide an attenuation of 20dB while still allowing the natural sound of the environment to be heard. ETY Plugs are configured to replicate the natural response of the ear canal so that when sound enters the earplug, it is reproduced unchanged, exactly the same as the ear would hear it, only quieter. The goal of the ER20 design was the same as for Musicians Earplugs: to reduce noise but preserve sound quality; in effect, to turn down the noise but not muffle voices, environmental sounds or music. The technician will check and cut each slot to make sure the strings both run freely but are not sitting in a slot that's too big.

Because ER-20s are a flat response earplug they closely match the ear’s natural frequency response, minimising the loss of high frequencies when performing. Imagine if that ringing doesn't go away, or if you can't hear parts of music and speech that you know are there!While Etyplugs reduce noise levels evenly and preserve clarity of speech, communication and the richness of music. P>I will have to add that the earplugs do work well in that they still let all frequencies through quite evenly (as advertised).

They are sophisticated noise attenuators that use a patented internal acoustic dampening network to provide nearly uniform attenuation. They are suitable for multiple purposes in moderately noisy environments, but they are especially ideal for music. For best performance and retention, if you use your ETY•Plugs constantly, consider replacing them every 3-6 months. The bridge affects the break angle and string height of your guitar and is also responsible for holding your saddles. That's not a quick tweak, but a full multi-point setup by an experienced guitar technician who will check and adjust every single thing on your guitar, bass, ukulele or banjo to ensure it is performing at its absolute best.Recommended by my audiologist after test results showed mild noise induced hearing loss (mostly left ear, likely due to violin playing). ER20 ear plugs are the ready-to-use ear plugs that offer the closest results to those of made-to-measure ear plugs.
