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 prefer a 20db cut that’s flat across frequencys. Most audio engineer plugs like the etymotic range aim for that midpoint.

    If I’m chainsawing, it’s big muffling 30db cut earmuffs.
