Buy some custom earplugs. Foam plugs ruin the sound, heroes don't fit well enough for most, go custom. I'm a drummer of 30 years and have been to hundreds of live shows. Here is an example: https://www.64audio.com/product/EP-Custom-EarPlugs https://www.64audio.com/product/EP-Custom-EarPlugs
- j_s 9y agoI've read good things about these (Etymotic ETY-Plugs High Fidelity Earplugs) at a $15 entry-level: https://amzn.com/dp/B0015WJQ7A https://amzn.com/dp/B0015WJQ7A Is there anything recommendable between the $15 and $200 ends?
- derrekl 9y agoThe Etymotic earplugs are the same thing as Heroes. For me they don't fit well and thus don't reduce the sound levels as much as designed. For some people they probably work well enough, depends on the shape of your ear canal, where it bends and to what extent. You can get custom in ear plugs for $200 including the molding process (though a bit tough - you have to wait for sales).
