If you experience ringing in ears after attending a concert or some other noisy occasion, consider taking the path today's modern musician and entertainers take - high fidelity earplugs.Ringing In My Ears After Concert

Musicians perform in the studio, on stage and in open air concerts. In all settings they expose their ears to high levels of sound, sometimes for long periods. Most musicians have had some hearing loss and many experience constant ringing in the ears. You might think it impossible for them to wear some kind of hearing protection while they perform. That is no longer the case.

The problem with conventional earplugs is that they reduce sound more in the high frequencies than in the low and mid frequencies, which makes music and voices unclear and unnatural. Modern technical advances in hearing protection is vastly improved beyond the foam or plastic earplug.

This new technology is referred to as high fidelity earplugs. These earplugs replicate the natural functions of the ear canal so that you can hear sounds with the same quality as your natural hearing, but its just quieter. Often these are custom molded ear plugs, but the standard read-fit models will do the job for many people.

High fidelity earplugs made of foam can provide 30-40 dB of sound reduction, but only a small amount is typically needed. Musicians require different amounts of protection depending on the sound levels they encounter during rehearsals and performances.

Many musicians benefit from ear molds that seal deeply in the bony portion of their ear canal. If this deep seal isn't there then you will hear a hollow or boomy sound when speaking, singing or playing a brass or wind instrument. This unpleasant or distracting sound is called the occlusion effect. Deep ear molds (past the second bend of the ear canal) will eliminate this problem.

If you are in one of these professions, you should try the ready-fit solutions or look into a custom fit high-fidelity earplug. /?040710" Ringing In My Ears After Concert
