Musician Series Ear Plugs - 27db Noise Reduction - Black, 099-0542-000

For £12 these are a steal. Like many musicians I use earplugs on stage (and listening to live music) because I don’t want to go deaf or develop tinnitus. I own a number of different brands and they’re great, frequency transparent, good attenuation, comfortable, etc. The Fender ones have the best attenuation on the market (27db) that I can find. So I purchased some to give them a test. They come with a nice see-through box to keep them in and a springy plastic cord to keep them attached to each other. At first I didn’t like the cord and considered taking it off but, in use, I found it to be extremely practical. The ear plugs themselves are comfortable to wear for long periods of time and they do cut down noise levels considerably. I found I lost some treble frequencies but not to an annoying state. And, being honest, if you stand near a drummer who is playing cymbals damping down those high frequencies is a blessing. I’ve purchased several more sets and stuck a pair in each of my guitar cases and one in my bag of cables etc. So wherever I play I’ve always got a set in case I forget my ‘posh’ ones! I also keep a pair in my pocket when I go out just in case there is a live band or DJ performing. I’m not keen that they are black in colour so they’re not especially discreet but they work really well. For £12 there is simply no excuse not to have a set to miss out on hearing problems for life. Buy them as your main ear plugs, back-up set or just to carry in case you are exposed to high sound levels - you’ll thank me in later life!

It is really good at what it does! Rather than for gigs I use it for large events, loud restaurants and driving with open windows. The plugs do great job of protecting hearing and filtering noise while keeping speech/music understandable. It would be five stars if not the rather unpleasant feeling when put in properly. It is not too bad (had some earplugs before, that would leave me with pain, those are not that bad) but it is constant discomfort. It might be because my ears are on the smaller side. Overall still worth recommendation, especially for this price

Great pair of ear plugs, bargain price.

Great sound blocking, but this is due to them being solid foam so there's no high fidelity filter like more stylish and expensive options. Sound quality is affected pretty badly. Should have realised given the price. The cord so you don't lose them is also pretty ugly. Good for an emergency or if you need the maximum reduction possible. Really these should be even cheaper given the construction, Fender taking the mickey a bit here.

Present for someone who goes to regular very loud concerts. He found them very effective, reducing how loud it was without muffling the sound. It was a lot cheaper than other brands on Amazon, which surprised me

Comfortable and doesn't block out too much sound.

For £7 these are an absolute steal. I can go to clubs and i can actually last there without getting overwhelmed, which is such a liberating and freeing thing for me. They fit quite well and don't hurt but as with all earbuds, they eventually do start hurting.

Nothing wrong with what your getting, but too small, so no sound difference at all. May as well have put some tissue in my ear. Why not made with different sizes

Me resultaron bastante cómodos y sin duda reducen el volumen del sonido al que te expones. Lo uso en conciertos y los disfruto mucho más con el uso de estos tapones. El cordón que los une ayuda a no perderlos en caso de que te los quites momentáneamente.

Insuperables por precio (7,5€) y rendimiento, no serán de diseño para lucir en el IG, pero hacen lo que tienen que hacer muy solventemente por 1/3 de lo que piden otras marcas

Work well at band practice to lower the volume but still hear the rest of the band good. Don't really like the rubbery cable band holding them tho.

Indubbiamente proteggono l’orecchio ma quante frequenze perse. Questo comunque credo e’ il compromesso per proteggere i timpani su tutti i tipi di tappi

As I am getting older I realise that my hearing has been damaged by very loud concerts. Used these recently and was very happy, comfortable fit and reduced sound by at least 50-60%. A recommended purchase.
