About Hearos:

When musicians go up on stage, we tend to like it loud. You've got a big audience to reach, after all, so turn that volume up and make sure they can hear you all the way in the nosebleed section! But you still want to be able to hear your own music ten years down the road, so when you're turning it up to 11 onstage, it's a good idea to protect your own hearing. For that, you can rely on Hearos. These are high-quality earplugs that will let you keep on rocking through the loudest gigs without putting your ears through the wringer.

When you're using earplugs frequently, there's no sense in buying them again and again - instead, try something like the Hearos High Fidelity Series Long-Term Earplugs. These are designed to fit in your ears more comfortably and for longer periods of time, so you can take on an entire night of gigging no problem. Since they're reusable, you can just give them a quick cleaning and toss them in the included case to keep them for as long as you need.

If you don't need plugs that often, then check out the Xtreme Protection Series and Ultimate Softness Bulk Pack Ear Plugs. There are lots of earplugs in these packages, so they're perfect when you go through quite a few sets but not quite enough to justify a reusable pair. The Ultimate Softness ones are especially nice if you've got sensitive ears: they use an ultra-pliable foam that's super comfortable.

Not a fan of the way traditional earplugs sit in your ear? You're not alone, and Hearos has an answer for you. The Pearls Silicone Ear Plugs are a completely different type: instead of having to be inserted into the ear canal, these earplugs are made of a malleable silicone that molds over it. That means you can get very good sound attenuation in a more comfortable way than traditional plugs.

Whichever kind works best for you, the bottom line is that if you use earplugs now, your future self will thank you. Hearing damage is one of the risks of a career in music, but it doesn't have to be. You can easily protect yourself by wearing a pair of Hearos earplugs whenever you plan to play it loud.
