This is what's used a lot in motorsport as race cars are insanely loud. Mine was pumping out north of 120db at one point at a 1m static noise test at 4500rpm (went to 7600rpm... and you sit less than 1m from the exhaust..)
I had full impressions done with custom in-ear monitors and I've never been happier. Makes plane flights absolutely tolerable too.
In-ear monitors vs sleeved (like eytomtic slip-ons) are much better practically day to day as the wires exit flush with the bottom of your earlobes (needed for getting helmets on and off) which means beanies, sleeping on a plane etc you can rest the side of your head on something without wires/end of the monitor.
Around $700NZD / $300USD done here in NZ.
- joshu 3y agowhat were you driving? i have an old lotus that is similar. ear pain within minutes. engine is inches behind my head. thankfully none of my other cars need more than a plain helmet.
- RowanH 3y agoLotus 7 styled machine. Has a supercharged honda k20a, the exhaust exit is drivers side....
- toast0 3y ago> Makes plane flights absolutely tolerable too. Do your monitors make equalizing pressure better or worse than without? Or is the tolerable just about the noise levels?
- RowanH 3y agoProbably a little bit worse on descent. It's all about noise levels - constant drone and screaming babies.
- teruakohatu 3y agoWhere did you get them done in NZ?
- RowanH 3y agoSorry for the late reply - Pacific Ears (you get the impressions done at Bay Audiology)
- teruakohatu 3y agoThank you and no worries!
- RowanH 3y agoYou're welcome. Fleur is awesome to deal with there. I think the ones I got were the custom fit j2's.
- teruakohatu 3y agoThank you. I was just about to ask which model you got! Do you know how much of a difference single dual or triple drivers make?
- RowanH 3y agoSorry can't tell ya as only bought the one set, so nothing to compare against...
- teruakohatu 3y agoNo worries thanks for the advice. The price of that model seems good.
