Ear Defenders - Round 2

by Matt on June 26, 2008

Another Triumph for the Baby Blue’s.

 

I used them in the first half of my Soul gig on Saturday and it was like I didn’t have them in. In fact, during the break I took them out and completely forgot to put them back in for the shorter second half and by the end my ears were ringing.

 

Even though this was a pain in the ear it does show that they do work. And this time I didn’t even puncture my brain putting them in : P . I’ll be sure to give them one more review to see if they can make it 3 for 3 and earn my stamp of approval.

 

It’s looking good so far…

Audio Relief - Ear Protection

by Matt on June 16, 2008

I bought a pair of these on the run up to a gig this weekend - Soul Bands are usually Ear Splitting their very nature.

Obviously as a professional musician I need to look after my ears so I carry a pair of foam ear defenders in my trumpet case.

You know the ones. They’re 75p a pair and obliterate all sound. Unfortunately this makes you sound like your playing under water. The tricky thing with musicians and ear defenders is that you need them to protect your ears whilst at the same time allowing you to hear your surrounding and most importantly yourself.

Simple Comparison

As you can see the Audio Relief Ear Defenders protect your ears from damaging upper and lower frequencies whilst allowing you to hear yourself and the group. Unfortunately chances are you’ll never find a stylish set of ear plugs whatever you decide to go for.

Quick Note: Do be careful when putting them in as I think I pierced my brain on the first attempt.

All in all on it’s first testing this seems to be a very good product and a musicians must. Especially at the low price of around £12. To find out more go to audiorelief.com.
