Etymotic Research High Fidelity Earplugs, Standard Fit, Frost Tip

It definitely does the job alright! Seems to be comfortable.Listening to speech is clear and audible although you might have to focus on the speaker a lil bit. It does get a little uncomfortable, so don't expect a soft, tender experience. Ultimate downside is that it requires cleaning and cleaning can take a while especially when ear wax gets stuck under the flanges and this process has generally discouraged me to an extent though I still use it. It sticks out of your ears!! So you might draw weird looks and comments!

I like these. They are the fourth pair of "nice" earplugs I've tried (I'm not counting the regular foam ones, which don't even fit into my ears), and have so far been the best. They fit snugly in my ear and really filter the sound well, and generally stay put well too (I dance in them, including fast spins, and they do not slip out at all - however, like most earplugs, you may notice when you smile or move your face in certain ways, they may open up slightly, or if you exercise vigorously in them like me and get sweaty. I've found this with every earplug I've tried, but these seem to do it less than others). They also are not very noticeable with the clear stems, which I like. They are also easy to insert and remove. The only issue I have is that they are uncomfortably tight - at the end of a couple of hours, while my ears are thankfully not ringing, they are in pain from being squeezed by these things. As a caveat, I do have really tiny ear canals, so it may just be me. They also are better than another pair I tried that was really inflexible and even more painful - these at least have some give. Then again, I wonder if these would be snug enough for large ear canals, but maybe the flexibility would make them adaptable. Regardless, they've worked well for me overall and I find myself reaching for these every time and leaving my other ear plugs at home. I haven't used them long enough to see how they'll hold up, but the plastic seems sturdier than another brand I tried with a similar construction. I would recommend trying them, especially if you have smaller ear canals and regular plugs don't fit. Update 7/16: I have changed my rating from 4 to 5 stars and ordered a second backup pair, because these earplugs have remained a favorite. The main downside is that if you are using them during heavy activity when you are sweating and moving a lot, you might find yourself having to push them back in fairly regularly. I only use them for dancing so I don't know if this would be an issue for other activities. However, compared to the benefits and considering the price, I think these are a great buy. Also, people almost never notice that I am wearing them, even when my hair is up, which is great - I love that they are discreet. They also really filter sound well without giving you that muffled feeling. Highly recommended! Update 5/17: I am still using and enjoying these earplugs. However, I must note that they are NOT sufficient for very high volumes. I recently attended a music event and wore these throughout, but experienced horrible ringing in my ears for days afterwards. They are still good earplugs and have saved me at other times, but be aware that for a certain level of noise you will need something with more protection.

Los audífonos vienen muy bien sellados y listos para usarse; traen un mini manual con el que te puedes orientar de cómo utilizarlos. Además traen un especie de cajita de plástico con una cadenita para su fácil transportación.

Probablement parmis les meilleurs bouchons universels pour ce qui est de la qualité de restitution sonore, rien à redire là dessus. En revanche pour ce qui est du confort et du fit c'est assez moyen: Les bouchons dépassent beaucoup et je pense que la taille standard est trop petite pour moi. Pour qu'ils isolent correctement je suis obligé de les pousser au maximum et très loin dans mon conduit ce qui fait qu'il vont trop loin et me font mal. Ils ont également tendance à ressortir comme ça. Pas de problème avec la taille large cependant.

Ottimi auricolari, riducono notevolmente i DB mantenendo però inalterato il sound ! Le frequenze basse quindi non vengono amplificate, cosa che spesso avviene con altri tappi, le frequenze medie e quelle alte rimangono inalterate. Si ottiene quindi un risultato eccellente in termini di fedeltà prossimo al suono reale, ma avendo molti meno DB. Le utilizzo professionalmente su palco e durante le prove e non mi hanno mai dato problemi. Se trattate bene, lavate e riposte ogni volta nella sua custodia, hanno anche un lunga durata. Utilissime quindi per concerti, prove, ecc. sia che siate lato palco o lato pubblico. Attenzione alla grandezza, consiglio in linea generale di prendere le large in quanto le standard calzano veramente piccole

The earplugs really work! The sound was clear, not muffled and worked in reducing the volume. It was quite difficult to put in, I had to twist it in like a screw and at an angle sort of up and into the ear, not directly horizontal etc. or maybe my ear was just too small... I bought these for a concert I was going to attend and didn't put them on at first, but when the concert started and I realized how loud it was, I put them on. There was a very effective reduction in volume level. They really helped me enjoy the concert and not worry about my ears being damaged! It came with a nice case which was a very neat addition to store the ear plugs and they also included a string thing to connect both the ear plugs.
