Musician Earplugs
Custom Musician Earplugs Change the Game on Stage and in the Studio
For a musician, earplugs are almost as essential as their instrument itself when it comes to performing. Without them, hearing damage is almost inevitable. The music might be loud for the crowd in front of the stage, but it's even louder for those making the music. Event staff and sound technicians face consistent exposure to high levels of potentially damaging noise, too. Unfortunately, many common earplug solutions give rise to complaints — they don't fit, they hurt, they let too much or not enough sound through. At Hearsafe, we address these concerns withmusician earplugs in Australia designed to fityour ears and yours alone.
Common Mistakes People Make with Earplugs for Musicians
Before diving into the reasons that custom ear protection is the right way to go, it's helpful to look at how your current earplugs could miss the mark. Have you made one of these mistakes before?
- Settling for plugs that just weren't comfortable — so you don't wear them as often as you know you should. It's a common occurrence, but it means you will too often expose yourself to damaging levels of sound.
- Purchasing plugs that do not fit snugly, allowing some frequencies of sound to continue reaching your inner ear. A plug that is "good enough" isn't really. Instead, you should look for earplugs that deliver consistent sound blocking.
- Relying on disposable plugs on an as-needed basis. Though they may be easy to come by, they'll never fit 100% correctly, wear out quickly, and they don't block as many frequencies.
If you're dissatisfied with the ear protection for musicians you've tried before, you aren't alone. The good news: there's a better way to keep hearing damage at bay.
