DownBeats Concert Hearing Protection Reusable Ear Plugs (NRR 18)

Bought a pair for all the kids now that they're gong to live shows. Great product.

These are great because they are portable-coming in their own metal case (with an attachment clip). Too, they are invisible. I bring a pair everywhere I go, and put them in on the racquetball court, at concerts and even in a loud restuarant. They aren't as sound proof as those foam yellow ones, which I also have, but they re much more convenient and discreet. It filters, but I am still able to hear surrounding conversations.

I think these are good earplugs and the case is cool. As others have said they are also low profile which is nice. However, they are so low profile that the short post is a little hard to grab to remove. Worse, it is pretty easy to pull the core out of the post while leaving the flange part of the plug in your ear. You can slide it back in easily too, but my point is that if you have large fingers or just don’t want to fiddle around these might not be the best choice for you.

The ear plugs work very well with a good crisp sound at a reduced audio level. They are reasonable comfortable to wear and are low profile and not particularly noticeable to others.... I like the metal case and keep it on my key ring so that it is with me anytime I find myself in a loud environment.

I have tried these earplugs in various settings, from rock band rehearsals to church services where I'm sitting in front of a pipe organ. I can still hear all the music - the sound doesn't become muffled, and doesn't drown out the vocals. Great for rehearsals and for concerts.

Wow these ear plugs are the greatest, I have to wear them at church, sorry about that, but the singers and the drums and whatever they do, is deafening, its awful and off key, these earplugs are not that noticeable, and some of my friends are almost deaf and their t.v, is turned up wayyy high and I freak out. I will order some more if these wear out,, thanks,, mary

These ear plugs are simply the easiest to use, classiest to carry (I have a few "cannisters" I use- one in the car, one in my purse, one in my travel bag)... I love to use them, they are hidden (no one really sees them) and they make a positive difference in my life. By the way- this is the first review I have every done- and I paid for these on my own.

It's a perfect item for djs when you are at the party

These were not as comfortable as I was expecting from the other reviews I've read. Also, they give a very, "plugged-up," pressurized sensation. For me, Mack's Clear Sound foam earplugs are a much better value, and certainly WAY more comfortable.

Tried out my earplugs at a gig. Very happy with them

Good fit, keeps the volume down without distorting the music. Great product!
