I play bass in a band and have bought these earplugs to protect my hearing or lose it for good. The Alpine musicsafe earplugs do their job and i can still hear myself and the other guys in the band when we play in our rehearsal room and at bars and medium sized events. I have used both filters and it really depends on how loud the volume of the PA's are at and the size of the venue. They are great and an important investment for any and all musicians.

I purchased these for my Harley when I ride, but thought they would be useful at the Metallica concert on 08/20/16. Man was I right! I was at the very front on the rail on the right hand side by all the speakers at ground level. The bass coming out of these speakers was so intense, I don't know how anybody without earplugs will be able to hear for days to come. These earplugs worked awesome. Even though the music was as loud as I've ever heard it, these earplugs passed this test with flying colors. 3 bands played and my ears were not ringing after the concert. I could hear the music and didn't have that "plugged up" feeling you get from foam or gel earplugs. I cannot say enough great things about the Alpine earplugs. The baffles or filters can be switched out easily in a matter of seconds. I have gotten 2 of my friends to purchase them based on my opinion. They worked for me and they'll work for you. I am a US Marine and think someone at Alpine should get in touch with the Marines (and other branches of the military) to get a contract with them, so our Veterans don't have hearing problems/loss. Again, these earplugs are AWESOME!!!Read full review

Instructions are easy to follow and the compact size fits easily to my trombone case. Reduces the load driving beet of the percussion section, which are directly behind me, to a manageable level.

The plugs do protect your hearing and the sound you hear is clear and musical. The stem for insertion and removal should be longer. It is fine going in but I had a problem taking out the plug.

They work well when jamming at loud decibel levels and allow normal speaking voices to get through although they do take a little while to get used to
