ER20 Musician Earplugs - ER•20 High Fidelity Earplugs
Look after your ears NOW - Enjoy music forever! The ETY•Plugs are the highest fidelity ready-fit earplugs available.
ER20 High Fidelity Earplugs were developed to provide low-cost,
one-size-fits-most high fidelity earplugs that can be used in a variety of noisy
environments.
The goal of the ER20 design was the same as for custom fit Musicians Earplugs: to
reduce noise but preserve sound quality; in effect, to turn down the noise but
not muffle voices, environmental sounds or music.
Musicians Earplugs are designed to replicate the natural response of the
open ear. Sound heard with these earplugs has the same quality
as the original, only quieter. The result
is that speech and music are clear--you still hear the blend clearly,
feel the bass, and distinguish each tone.
ER20 Earplugs are the closest earplugs one can get to custom made earplugs, but at a fraction of the cost!

quality.
