A veteran of V-Moda Faders (also very effective, wonky getting them into and out of their carrying case), once the cord holding my Faders broke I decided to try the Etymotics as an alternative/backup and have found these to be lighter, easier to keep clean (less likely to gather ear wax) and equally frustrating to attempt to keep in their provided carrying case. The stock model fits my ears very well so I do not need to step up to more expensive models with more ear sizing options

As a musician and a music fan, hearing protection is a necessity for me. If you're going to rock concerts with no earplugs, chances are you're jeopardizing your hearing. These earplugs are a great solution, definitely a step above the cheapie disposables you get at the drugstore. They retain most of the character of the original sound, mostly attenuating volume without completely muffling everything.

My company frequently throws concerts but the volume is very loud. These earplugs are great at suppression and the case is handy too.
