Digital camera reviews of Hearos High Fidelity Ear Plugs
Digital camera Review: A must for rock concerts!
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this for a recent rock concert. It is supposed to modulate amplitude (loudness) without affecting frequency (pitch), and this pair of Hearos did that and more! I firmly believe I listened to a much better concert than other people because the Hearos seemed to also filter out unwanted reverberations. I removed the earplugs for a few seconds to determine if the lead vocalist sounded better with my ears unobstructed. What a heard was a screechier voice, instruments that sounded raucuous and nearly drowned out the singing, and a pounding sound that made my head ache. With the Hearos, the vocalist's voice sounded crisp, the instruments tight and distinguishable, and without the stadium echo that was too annoying even for a rock concert. From now on, I will always pack my Hearos for any arena concert event!Digital camera Review: Cuts the static, not the sound.
Summary: 5 Stars
These are fairly comfortable, and I can easily carry on a conversation with them in.. these have been well reviewed for concerts already. Because of the small size of the case, I had them in the purse for several weeks, so I tried them out in a few other situations as well.
You can have them in while at loud social situations like parties, but don't bother if the party isn't noise ordinance levels of loud. (At a loud dinner party, they helped slightly, but I always had the impression that I might be missing things that the people just behind me were saying.) In a crowded cafeteria, the sounds of the cafeteria and the background buzzes all vanish, but being able to clearly hear all the voices almost makes it louder in there.
In the end, I've decided to take advantage of the extra room in the case for a pair of old fashioned noise deadening plugs as well. Sometimes, you want superb hearing, sometimes, you don't.
Digital camera Review: Good ear plugs
Summary: 4 Stars
These are good ear plugs to have when going to a loud concert, because no muffuling occurs in certain frequencies that would occur with disposable earplugs. And unlike disposable earplugs, you can carry on a conversation with these in your ears. The case that come with the ear plugs is a joke though. First day I had them the cap broke off, and the ear plugs can get stuck in the tube. I suggest to anyone getting these to get a mini altoids tin, and use that as a case instead of the one it comes with. It has worked well for me!Digital camera Review: Good for drummers, guitarists may run into issues
Summary: 4 Stars
Our band bought 5 sets of these for our practice space that can get quite loud.
Previously I had been using a Vic Firth Isolation headset while the others used nothing.
I can certainly hear more clearly than with the straight dB drop the headphones provide, can clearly hear the guitar and vocals without to much mudding of the sound.
The guitarists don't care for them though. They have a difficult time distinguishing the actual note they are playing. Our bass player uses them off and on dependent on the song and the level of accuracy he needs to hear.
I would recommend trying them as they are relatively inexpensive compared to a custom tuned and fit application from an audiologist.
If you are a drummer they will be more benefit to you than if you are guitar/keyboard/bass player from our joint experience.
Digital camera Review: Great product
Summary: 5 Stars
Yes these work just as advertised and they fit the bill perfectly. Just can't wait to use them in the line of fire.
