Hearing loss from exposure to loud sound affects millions of people. Noise-induced hearing loss is preventable. And it’s easy to prevent. ETY-Plugs were developed to provide low cost, one-size-fits-most high fidelity earplugs that can be used in a variety of noisy environments.

Great, but BE CAREFUL what size you buy,
The ER20 plugs do work well. I’m a fulltime musician and love them. BUT, the last pair I got turned out to be the “Baby Blues” which are made “for small ear canals”. The descriptions here are very weak and it’s easy to make that mistake. The actual sound filter is inside the stem, but the silicone plug (the blue part on these plugs) is smaller than normal, too small for my adult male ears. I’m not sure the seller understands this. Be careful.

|Works great,
Bought these for a photo shoot at a concert. Was right up front near the monitors and was able to shoot without any discomfort and left them in for the entire 2 hours. Was able to hear everything and the frequency response was perfect. It was just like turning the volume down on the stereo – just made the sound lower without muffling it like regular foam plugs do. Was also able to carry on a conversation with them in as well. And the best part – no ear ringing for days after the concert either.

|Perfect for classrooms,
We use these at school for my son. He’s in first grade and has sensory processing disorder, which makes it very difficult for him to tune out noises and focus in the classroom. These earplugs diffuse just enough noise to allow him to attend to his work and to the teacher. He also uses them during assemblies and in the cafeteria where it’s very noisy. They’re much more discrete than the headphones often used to help children in classroom settings.
