Etymotic ResearchER20XS Universal Fit

Los estrené en un festival de música electrónica EDC, en Ciudad de México. Ya había asistido a varios festivales y a este mismo en años anteriores. La edición en que pude estrenarlos noté bastante la diferencia: escuchaba la música CLARAMENTE sin perderme de nada. Son perfectos y planeo usarlo para todos los festivales y conciertos a los que asista.Hay que probarlos un día antes para que el mero día del concierto/festival ya estés familiarizado con cómo colocarlos hasta que tapen muy bien el canal auditivo. Las primeras veces yo pensaba que ya estaba puesto pero no estaba tapando el sonido realmente. Una vez BIEN puestos, sientes la diferencia abismalmente.

Having done the orange Mack's earplugs thing for concerts before, I really wanted to avoid the generic in-ear foam plugs (or any over-ear headphones) for going to live concerts. Regular plugs muffle EVERYTHING to the point that the music I've paid to hear sounds like the Swedish Chef screaming into a pillow.I settled on these Etymotic plugs based on a single recommendation after having posted a request for recs on Reddit. The stipulations were:1) They had to be in-ear. The reasoning being over-ear protection is very bulky for anything that actually protects well enough to use. I'm old enough where I don't care what anyone says about how "uncool" I am wearing ear protection.2) They had to include a non-flange option. My wife cannot use flanged ear plugs due to numerous ear piercings on different spots of her ears. For the same reason, she cannot wear over-ear pro as in #1. I was pretty sure she'd be stuck with regular foam plugs until I found these. I did see a "moldable" plastic ear plug set exists from another manufacturer, but I read extensively that they are very uncomfortable to wear after only an hour or two.3) They couldn't cost an arm and a leg to buy without knowing how they'd function. Each set of these plugs was $25 at the time of my purchase, so they weren't about to break the bank for a "risk" purchase based on a lone recommendation.Overall: yeah, these are definitely a winner. The flanged tips were comfortable for me. The foam tips were comfortable for my wife. We were both pretty happy with the total volume reduction (no ear pain/ringing at the end of the concert) and exceedingly pleased with the limited distortion to the music/vocals. There definitely is SOME distortion, but, compared to standard foam plugs, these are definitely high-fidelity.We're looking into professional custom-made plugs for both of us, but I'll definitely return for more of these if the custom plugs don't happen and if/when my current set of these wears out.

I've never experienced something like this before. I have tinnitus after going out too long and the music being too loud so I try to protect my ears everytime i go out to stop my tinnitus from getting worse and these help a lot. It makes the music at least 50% quieter, so it's not killing your ears, but makes somebody who is talking to you sound crystal clear. It's amazing. I can have conversations with friends at the club without feeling the need to yell to be heard of feeling like i'm being yelled at because of the loud music. It's very discrete since the outside is a clear plastic and nobody has ever commented to me about them or noticed them since my long hair covers them most of the time. Just be careful to only wash the silicone since water in the "sound-reducing" part can damage them. Very satisfied and worth the money!!! Not like any other ear-plugs i've used before!(however it came with a hard case instead of the rubber one in the picture. it's fine, but i prefered the rubber one - i lost my previous pair - because it was easier to fit in tiny handbags.)

I bought these as reviews said they were best for audio and needed something to replace my lost Alpine ear plugs. The sound through these is loads better but they’re slightly less comfortable but once you get used to putting them in they’re alright.

Seconda volta che compro questi auricolari ideali per chi suona live!!!
