| I have genetically bad hearing and am too paranoid not to wear ear plugs out. I might get some nifty ones (like the moulded type) later on but free ones I scam from work that are daggy yellow do the job just fine. |

I'm positive my hearing is damaged to some point, but thankfully not too badly.
I'm hoping to talk my mother into helping my chip in for my birthday in a few weeks for a pair of custom made/fitted earplugs (they're about $400) that i can also wear in my headphones when DJing. |
Incorrect.
I bought my pair for.....
$260?
though, they are so good, worth every cent. I have been wearing them for around 6 months now, both as a DJ and a clubber, and noticed a huge difference.
After Armin van Buuren, I was the only person out of the ten I went with that didn't have ringing in my ears for a few days after.
When DJing, there is a barely noticeable drop in bass, but otherwise, sound quality is the same.
Admittedly, they can irritate you ears a little bit, but not so much so that it becomes part of your night. After a few drinks (or pills), you literally forget that they are in until you get home.
Can't recommend them highly enough.
You don't look like too much of a wearing them either, because they barely protrude from your ears. |

| Ah ok, i thought they were more like $350ish, but thought they could have been more. I made enquiries about a month ago but needed to get some funds together first. Where did you get them from? They are custom fitted to your ear canal yeah? |

Custom fitted, yes.
They reduce all sound by -25dB.
You can hear people speaking at normal volume in a quiet room when you have them in.
I got them at some place in Prahran. Sorry, had a look but couldn't find the name. It was close to the corner of Chapel and Toorak Rd, in a side street, maybe Cromwell or Surrey?
You bloody need ear plugs at F4 too Dean, they always have the system cranked way too high. I reckon F4, Room and Metro are the loudest clubs I've ever been to. |
