Has anyone compared the MusicSafe Pro plugs to the Etymotic ER-20 specifically regarding clarity and even sound reduction? Which sound more natural?

Earplugs in general are a worthwhile inbestment for any concernt and not only Jonas Brothers.

However normally the noise is actually from the group playing but in this case it appears to be the audience that you need to protect youe ears from!

Eitherway ear protection is very important. I can only advise that once you have damaged your ears, the damage is actually not reversible so please do invest in a pair of earplugs. They are actually quite cheap to buy and can either be bought online or from a local chemist or convience store.

Thanks and regards. John.

Yeah, I think Etymotic is generally considered to be the leader in earplugs for musicians. Most of my friends who DJ (and myself) use these. They do some pricier high-end custom fitting stuff, but the basic ones are about the same cost as the Alpines. I’d guess that the two are probably pretty similar products.

Hi Mark. I was trying to remember the name of Etymotic to add to the article! Big thanks for adding that link. I’ve heard about these often. These could be even better… in fact, they are more well known no?

If you’re not already familiar with them, you should also check out: http://www.etymotic.com/

They also make outstanding earplugs for musicians that don’t drown out the treble and leave you with mush. Having a great set of earplugs is a must.

Sorry to hear about your wife’s Tinnitus! Let that be a real warning to everyone. This is one of those problems that most of the time you don’t notice until it’s too late. Heed the warnings!

My wife had to take medications to handle the tinnitus in her ear which she got during a concert back in 93.I guess the reason why people have to take anti-depressants is ’cause they go seek for help at a late stage and are just about to freakout due to that high pitched companion,at least it drove my wife almost nuts which finally even led her to suecidal thoughts.She then never went to a party without ear protection…I heard a few years back,actually I saw it on TV ,that they achieve good results using the same therapy they use on divers who came up too fast,sorry cant think of what that sickness was called again.Decompression?Is thats what its called?

I think it says a lot about the poor audio in a lot of concerts and clubs. Volume and bass are emphasised above everything else. I find it maddening, the the point where at the last few shows I attended I’ve left early.

Just turning everything down would be a great start. I much prefer a clear and well designed system over a loud one.

Must be getting old.

Yes! It’s a must for anyone working and dealing in loud volume environments. It’s not fun mixing and mastering if you can’t hear anything above 12kHz…
