I pretty much always wear ear protection now. I prefer these:

They're expensive but last a really long time. The set I'm using now has only
been one year but replaced a 3 year old set that the mice ate...

I have a wood chipper with 10 HP Tecumseh, same noise issues. The real
problem is the engine runs at the governed limit all the time the machine
is operational, to have momentum power to chop and shred. It never idles
down to give the ears a rest.
My solution is to always wear ear protection. Single use foam ear plugs
plus head sets. Noise = Power = Progress... "Back to Work".
