Looking for recommendations for good ear protection during concerts. I want ear buds that don’t just muffle all the sound but limit higher unsafe frequencies while allowing you to still enjoy the music. I did a search and came up with a bunch of different kinds and varying reviews on amazon, I also asked my friend who is in the live audio business and he said I needed custom molded IEMs but that seemed a little over kill for me, even if it’s the best way.

This Site shows the common ones I’ve seen.

Thanks!

EDIT: thanks everyone for the reaponses, I will go through and look at each of the recommended solutioms works best for me.

    I have the Earasers with their case and keep it on my keychain. Super happy with them. Use them as drummer for all the rehearsals I do without my IEMS or any loud concerts I go to. Super comfortable and I can still talk to people fine with them in since they don’t muffle the sound too much.

    Just got a pair of eargasms too but haven’t put them through their paces yet, but they’re a different style of earplug that’s more substantial but might have slightly better sound. They’re also a little cheaper usually and they come with a case.

    If you get the Earasers case make sure to sinch it tight when closing otherwise it has a habit of unscrewing in your pocket.
