Features

  • High fidelity custom hearing protection
  • Sound quality is clear and natural, not muffled
  • Noise fatigue is reduced

Musicians Earplugs are designed to replicate the natural response of the open ear. Sound heard with these earplugs has the same quality as the original, only quieter. The result is that speech and music are clear--you still hear the blend clearly, feel the bass, and distinguish each tone.

Accurate sound reduction is achieved by combining a patented filter with the specific acoustics of a custom earmold. The combination of the two produces a resonance at approximately 2700 Hz (as in the normal ear) resulting in a smooth, flat attenuation.

Three types of attenuator buttons are available: ER•9, ER•15 and ER•25. The number corresponds with the amount of sound reduction provided in dB.

ER•9
Provides 9 dB flat sound reduction through the mid range, with the same high-frequency attenuation as the ER•15.
ER•15
The first Musicians Earplug; the standard from which all other ER attenuators were designed. Provides uniform 15 dB sound reduction across frequencies.
ER•25
Provides 25 dB of relatively flat attenuation across frequencies.
The ER family of earplugs is covered by U.S. Patents #4,852,683, #5,113,967 #5,887,070.
