Etymotic Research ER20 High-Fidelity Earplugs - Clear Stem w/ Blue Tip

Millions of people worldwide are affected by hearing loss caused by exposure to loud sounds, but the good news is that noise-induced hearing loss is preventable. ETY-Plugs, the world's first ready-fit, high-fidelity earplugs, offer a solution by reducing sound levels evenly while preserving sound quality and clarity.

ETY Plugs are designed to replicate the natural response of the ear, ensuring that the sound quality remains the same as the original, just quieter. This makes them ideal for a wide range of applications, including concerts, clubs, theaters, aircraft, construction, yard work, airshows, parades, and athletic or motorsports events, where music and voices are kept clear and unmuddled.

Fitting the majority of ears, the standard size ETY Plugs are reusable, although the eartips may lose elasticity with repeated use. For optimal performance and retention, it is recommended to replace them every 3-6 months if used frequently.

It's important to note that ETY-Plugs are not suitable for use with impulse noises such as gunfire, nor are they recommended for sleeping. However, for the intended applications, they provide a cost-effective, ready-fit hearing protection solution, complete with a neck cord and carrying case.

Replicating the natural response of the ear, ETY Plugs maintain the same sound quality as the original, just at a reduced volume, approximately 20 decibels across all frequencies. This allows for a clear and uncompromised experience, where music and speech remain distinct and unmuddled.

The enhanced music experience offered by ETY Plugs is particularly valuable for musicians, who can hear their own instrument and its blending with others, ensuring they can perform at their best without risking hearing damage.

In summary, ETY-Plugs provide a reliable and effective solution to the widespread problem of noise-induced hearing loss. By replicating the ear's natural response and preserving sound quality, they offer a comfortable and convenient way to protect one's hearing while enjoying various entertainment and recreational activities that involve loud sounds.
