ETY-Plugs (TM) earplugs use patented technology that replicates the natural response of the ear canal so that sound heard with these earplugs is as clear as the original, just quieter. ETY-Plugs earplugs have nearly the same fidelity as Etymotic's Musicians Earplugs (TM) (custom earplugs worn by professional musicians) and are a low cost alternative. Hearing loss is a function of exposure time, the average sound level, and the peak level of very loud sounds. Exposure to excessive noise can cause permanent hearing loss depending on the intensity and duration of the sound. Some persons are more susceptible to hearing loss from high-level sound than others. Protect your ears. In high-noise environments, wear Ety-Plugs. Includes one pair of Ety-Plugs, carrying case, black neck cord and instructions.

Worked well for child with autism Sep 07, 2010
I purchased this product in an attempt to make a theme park visit more pleasurable for my 9-year-old son, who has autism. Overly-noisy environments can by distracting or annoying, so my wife an I have been looking for a good solution to help reduce the noise in an unobtrusive way.

He found the earplugs comfortable and they stayed snug in his ear on the many moving attractions he experienced. We were actually able to experience the park for a much longer time than usual, thanks in part to these earphones.

can still hear all instruments and can sing Aug 23, 2010
Playing guitar in a classic rock band, I find these earplugs comfortable and effective. No ringing ears the next day. And I was even able to sing with them. For off the shelf, non-custom, musician's earplugs, these do the trick.

Exceeded my expectations! Aug 18, 2010
At 46 years of age, it had been a long time since I attended a rock concert. All I remember from my Aerosmith/Guns 'n Roses experience in the 80's was pain from the overwhelmingly loud music. Having no ear protection, I resorted to wet, rolled up toilet paper stuffed in my ears to make it through.

Older and wiser, and much more aware that high decibels are not your friend, I sought out ear protection that would still allow me to enjoy the music without muting out the highs and the lows.The Etymotic Research ER20 High-Fidelity Earplugs, performed better than expected, and I came home with none of that ear damaging ringing I remember as a teenager.

Well worth the money, and reusable too. They are a great choice if you want to hear the music, not just mute it out.

Does the job well Aug 18, 2010
I use these for music festivals after having had a bit too much for decades. These plugs leave a lot of the spectrum in place, so you can still enjoy the music. A rather pleasant surprise was that it is actually easier to talk with people around you as the more direct sound of their voices better climb above the background noise. I would have given the plugs 5 stars if it were possible to use them to cancel noise during your sleep as well, but that's not what these are made for.

Good stuff. Fairly low profile. Blocks the noise you want blocked but can still hear things pretty clearly. Great for tuning out background chatter. They are for small ear canals though.
