Hi everyone,
Recently I came out of I think the loudest gig I've ever played. I did use some gel ear plugs. But i came out with pretty bad ringing still. Now I've already had tinnitus since forever, not due to any loud music (i think). I recently went to my doctor and saw an audiologist and i did some hearing tests. My hearing is still perfect, so the tinnitus is nothing to worry about he says.
So I bought some ER-20 earplugs recently, and they're supposed to reduce sound by 20 Db but their Db rating is only 12. To people who use ER 20s, do you find that they are adequate? If not I might just stick to foam earplugs used for heavy machine work that have a Db rating of like 20-25 but muffle sound pretty bad....
Oh also, I can't afford those $200 custom earplugs yet.
