"Testing Testing. Did you say affordable hearing protection? Meet ER20. £13.95Earplugs oh, what makes these so special? According to the blurb on the packaging ER20 is a precision instrument that uses a special patented tuned resonator with an acoustic resistor to filter sound without taking away its character.
And in English? ER20 are more than just earplugs, They're flat attenuators. Rather than muffling everything, ER20 keep everything clear by reducing the volume evenly across the sonic spectrum from bass to treble. If you're a musician playing in noisy environments, ER20 provide clarity while protecting your ears from excessive volume.
Do they work? They've been developed by Elacin, who makes the custom fitted earplugs sported by bands like Radiohead. They're not quite as accurate as the custom models, but for a tenner rather than £150, they're great value for money.
The Works tested them in a rehearsal room and in front of the PA stack at a Raging Speedhorn show. Music clear as day. Ears not ringing. Job Done."
