Exposure\r\nto loud music is one of the leading causes of noise-induced hearing loss<\/a>.\r\nMusicians spend many hours practicing and performing and depend on good hearing\r\nin order to compose their music. Unfortunately, consistent exposure to loud\r\nmusic carries a high price. <\/p>\r\n\r\n\"\"\r\n\r\n\r\n

Damaging\r\nsounds can lead to a host of hearing disorders including long-term hearing\r\nloss, tinnitus and more. Musicians earplugs can help prevent noise-induced\r\nhearing loss while allowing musicians to enjoy the music and reduce their risk\r\nof developing permanent hearing damage.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

What Makes Musician\u2019s Earmolds Different? <\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Unlike\r\ntraditional earplugs that block out noise, resulting in music and speech that\r\nis muffled or distorted, musician\u2019s earplugs are high-fidelity, meaning they\r\nreduce sound levels evenly while keeping the original quality of the music\r\nintact. This translates to music and speech that is clear and natural, and\r\nallows musicians to hear their own instruments and how well they blend in with\r\nthe other band members.  <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Musicians\r\nearplugs are made up of a diaphragm and earmold that work together to produce\r\nattenuation (reduction in sound) that is smooth and flat across the entire\r\nfrequency range. Many feature interchangeable attenuators that provide multiple\r\nlevels of sound reduction for different listening situations (e.g., private\r\nrehearsals vs. full-scale concerts). <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

They\r\ncan be used in place of loudspeaker monitoring systems, which typically crowd\r\nthe stage and increase noise levels significantly. Despite their name, these\r\nearplugs aren\u2019t solely for the use of musicians; they also benefit\r\nconcertgoers, allowing them to enjoy live performances while protecting their\r\nhearing. Musicians earplugs can be used in other noisy environments such as\r\nairshows and sporting events. <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n
