Musician Earplus FAQ

Question:

What's wrong with conventional earplugs?

Answer:

They muffle speech and music. Conventional earplugs reduce sound more in the high frequencies than in the low and mid frequencies, which makes music and voices unclear and unnatural. Deeply-inserted foam earplugs not only muffle the sound, but can provide 30-40 dB of sound reduction when only a small amount is needed.

Question:

How much protection do people need?

Answer:

It is as important to protect your ears from loud sounds as it is to protect your skin from over exposure to harmful UV rays from the sun. Repeated exposure to sun is harmful to the skin and repeated exposure to loud sounds can cause hearing loss and tinnitus (ringing in the ears). Some persons are more susceptible to hearing loss from high-level sound than others. Even if a temporary loss recovers, there is a risk that repeated exposure to loud noise will result in permanent hearing loss. We now know that hearing loss is cumulative over our lifetime.

Question:

How much noise is too much?

Answer:

Noise-induced hearing loss from excessive exposure to high-level sound is a function of sound intensity and the duration of sound. Some persons are more susceptible to hearing loss from loud sound than others.
