As a musician and sound people I wanted to do my eavesdroppers something good and got the things can give for Christmas. At home in the dry test everything went still. At an event tested, I felt, with my view, average ears, unfortunately just as my two prescribing with only one star - I've have let the thing again shelling from the ear with tweezers. Something may not happen. By the fixed filter cartridge you get these things even harder again from the ear, with standard plugs I had the problem never. Therefore - I'm still looking for a useful protection. Unfortunately, it was on the edge even noticed these protectors dampen markedly than originally expected in the ups and less in the bass range
