> Anyone have any experience with these custom fitted ear plugs? I have a pair.
Basically, you make an appointment to get silicone goo poured into your ears. This hardens into a mold which is then extracted and sent to a lab for fitting. So each pair is custom-fitted to the owner. The molding process isn't painful but it's a bit uncomfortable. My pair has a removable filter which can be swapped with others with a different dB reduction rating. I think my filters are 15 dB - maybe 20. Either way, I've never needed to get anything better and I've heard some LOUD stuff with those in. I wouldn't say they're completely transparent, but they're much much better than the foam ones you can buy at drug stores. The attenuation is pretty flat across the frequency spectrum. They're a bit pricey but well worth it. My pair cost about $120.
