So let me get this straight--77 people bought these for $18 a pop and the db reduction rating of -23? And maybe you can sleep with them? Here's some free advice, I've been sleeping EVERY night with earplugs (sometimes in extremity noisy places--and not by choice), for the past five years, and -23db is a very marginal improvement over nothing. I would pay ten times the price for something *appreciably* better, that I actually could sleep with, but I haven't found it yet. What I have found are dirt-cheap -30db foam plugs that do a very good job, and I absolutely can sleep in them. I get them at Walmart for for about nine-bucks per 50 count. You should too: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Mack-s-Dreamgirl-NRR-30-dB-Soft-Foam-Earplugs-50-count/17034310?action=product_interest&action_type=title&beacon_version=1.0.2&bucket_id=irsbucketdefault&client_guid=5ae438cd-db06-4dbd-3ab9-cda6c1383147&config_id=2&customer_id_enc&findingMethod=p13n&guid=5ae438cd-db06-4dbd-3ab9-cda6c1383147&item_id=17034310&parent_anchor_item_id=10318441&parent_item_id=10318441&placement_id=irs-2-b1&reporter=recommendations&source=new_site&strategy=PWVAV&visitor_id=XFI07ehpUvd-FyXQotl1SI

My apologies if that's the case, although by the insults you were dishing out earlier I find it hard to believe you would find the way I addressed your comments offensive. However, I did in no way mean to hurt any feelings and I simply wanted to have a debate over the validity of this product. On that note, what are your thoughts on what I said? Beyond the offensive part of course.

jpkebI was kidding—I’m not not particularly sensitive and you didn’t hurt my feelings. Your comments were quite good and have completely changed my thinking on the subject —and on the meaning of life for me in general. Many thanks!

Every earplug sold in the U.S. is required by law to have a Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) published for it and also the data used for calculating the NRR - the mean Real-Ear Attenuation at Threshold values and the standard deviations of the attenuation values for the one-third octave bands of noise centered at 125, 250 500, 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000, 6000, an 8000 Hz for a group of ten listeners as measured in accordance with ANSI S3.19 Experimenter Fit Procedure. That applies regardless of whether the earplug is intended for the occupational, recreational, or home environment. There is no legal way to have an earplug designed to reduce noise for any application that is free from this requirement. So, where are the data for this earplug?

SoundDocUnsurprisingly, you can't find a website for EarFirst. I did find a list of the attenuation ranges on the Amazon listing for it.

Finally, earplugs for audiophiles. Now I don't have to hear how fucking stupid I sound when I use the word audiophile.

I mean, there are plenty of those out there. I certainly wouldn't mind a drop for a Nacre Quietpro or similar device.

Hi, do anybody know of the block/decrease the sound of industrial machines with the same level of sound like an angel grinder for example?
igtl314grinding angels is a surefire path to hell.

To be fair, those square cut little cylinder plugs are about as uncomfortable as wadding brown paper towels in your ear. They're also only really meant to be worn for 2-4 hours rather then a full 10 hour shift.
it depends on the genre of music. I am a fan of metal, punk, and industrial acts. All of which tend to the louder side. Rock, jazz, country etc all tend to stick to modest SPLs, and as you move up to higher quality venues, the SPLs actually decrease, because they have better sound systems that dont have to melt your face trying to reach the whole audience.

Don't really understand how these are claiming to be high-fidelity earplugs when they don't even include a frequency response test of their product.

SavagelifeWouldn't ideal earplugs be no-fidelity? I don't want them to produce ANY sound.

Took me exactly 3 seconds to find. Less time than it took 'Savage'life to write that stupid comment.

UzuzuThis is the 'audiophile' community. Every piece of audio equipment down to the smallest detail is overpriced. Get used to it lol

These are relatively flat up to 1kHz, but above 1kHz, the rolloff is substantial. ~20dB reduction under 1kHz, up to 32dB reduction at 2kHz - 4kHz. These will definitely provide an appreciable level of protection in a situation where you’re not concerned about acute hearing damage (anywhere where most people are not wearing hearing protection), but these cannot compete with higher-end high-fidelity/flat in-ear hearing protection plugs and they are about 50-75x more expensive than foam disposables that will be more effective and only slightly less flat. For $18, you can’t go too wrong, but don’t expect these to keep up with a professional product or blow away expectations compared to a disposable.

MiraColeDo you know any good higher-end brands?
MiraColeHuman hearing is subject to the Fletcher-Munson loudness curve. Our hearing is most sensitive in the range from 2khz to 4khz. And falls off rapidly moving toward the lower frequencies. In order for you to hear flat with earplugs. You actually want an earplug with less attenuation of high and low, more attenuation of midrange.
