Whether you’re looking for hearing protection at concerts, parties, or while playing music yourself, these Alpine earplugs have you covered. Each set uses acoustic filters to reduce the volume to a safe level without affecting music quality or preventing you from hearing your friends when they speak Read More
Not recommending, just providing the NRR specs Massdrop puzzlingly left out:
MusicSafe Pro Earplugs [from the Alpine website]:
White filter NRR=8Silver filter NRR=11Gold filter NRR=16
What are the NRR ratings for each set, and for each “filter” within set?
massdrop: writing THAT information in the specs is rather essential! We shouldn’t have to find and go to another site for such basic information.
LaserGuidedSockIndeed. I don't know if these will bump off my current music earplugs, but it'll at least be a very handy always available backup. Even though I keep extra pairs of earplugs around, you sometimes just end up needing them when you least expect it.
Shout out to Brett at Massdrop support. USPS delivered my package after 9 days (shipped Priority mail from NJ to NY) and someone must have knocked over a can of solvent onto it because the entire package and its contents reeked so much that I had to chuck everything. Shot support an email and they responded immediately, on a Sunday night no less.
phattioMy issue with the Etymotic's (and most other music earplugs) is the way they fit with the triple-flange design. In order to get a good seal, they were protruding way too deep into my ear, creating pain/discomfort. Or else they wouldn't seal at all. The shorter design of the Alpine's worked much better. Your mileage may vary, but that's my experience. When I did seem to have a seal with the Etymotics, I wasn't impressed with how much they did distort the music, considering the Etymotic's are supposed to among the best. My previous pair of Alpine's (classic version, IIRC) with the lightest filter in created the best concert experience for me. To my ears, the Alpine's are the most comfortable music earplugs of the several that I've tried. Plus, they're not super obvious. I haven't received my Massdrop order yet, but I'm expecting these to live up to my high expectations from my last pair.
Can we please get information about whether or not the pro versions come with that keychain carrying case? I want the professional version because of the golden filters, but that keychain would be incredibly useful for me, as I'll need to carry my earplugs with me for events I work.
The spare plug seems like a good idea, but there are only two filters of each type, so if you lose one you still don't have a matching pair of the filter that you decided was the right level of protection.
