ETYMOTIC RESEARCH ER20BP High Fidelity Ear Plugs ( Clear ) Reviews

Summary: Ditch that yellow foam crap.
Comment: These are certainly not top notch professionally fitted earplugs. But, they truly are worlds better than those disposable foam plugs that make you feel like you've got a head cold and can't hear anything anyone is saying to you.

While not perfect, these filter sound much more naturally. At a rock concert, I can wear these without feeling like I'm missing alot of the sound. Many frequencies are still fairly loud and I can still hear vocals, guitars, etc.. not just bass and a thumping kick drum. With foam pads, I typically took them out between sets at a show so I could talk to my friends comfortably. But with these, I often just leave them in. I can typically hear my regular conversations just fine.

Another recollection is plane travel. I'll often wear these when I fly to avoid the ear ringing that often occurs after all that engine noise. If I'm wearing these when a stewardess comes by to offer me a drink, I hear her when she gets my attention and once again am able to make the transaction without feeling like I'm talking to the other side of quiet bubble.

Oh...I've also found the fit to be quite good and secure.

This is getting wordy.

Anyway, I highly recommend these to anyone who wants something better than yellow foam, but isn't quite ready to invest in professionaly fitted earplugs.

Summary: Excellent earplugs and a cheap cost, too!
Comment: I bought these earplugs after a doctor recommended that I use some while listening to music. A site I found via google recommended these earplugs, and I thought I'd give them a whirl.

These earplugs are a godsend! They don't block out music to the point where I can't hear anything (I can still hear all the instruments crystal clear, only at a lower volume), I can still hear people talking to me, and sounds are clear, only softer. It's like someone turned the volume down, but not to an unpleasant point, either.

They're also really easy to insert (not painful or uncomfortable at all), easy to clean, and generally can be carried everywhere for possible use. For this price, I'm very satisfied with what I've recieved, and I can't recommend them enough.

Summary: Awesome.
Comment: I like these a lot. probably not the best for shotgun ranges, that isn't their purpose. I go to shows and play shows with this bad boys and they are awesome! You can still hear things clearly, they are just lower. Love them!

Customer Rating:
Summary: Excllent purchase!
Comment: It is very comfortable and you can fit it as snugly as you like. The sound intensity reduction is not the maximum, but you can carry out a normal conversation with no problem. The quality of music you are hearing through these is fair in my opinion. For this price, it is very well worth it.

Summary: Great earplugs!
Comment: This is the first time I've bought earplugs that are not of the foam variety.
I'm a drummer and it's important for me to keep my ears healthy. I find that these earplugs do a great job of keeping my ears safe while still allowing me to hear the tone of what my band is playing.
Great product!
