Hi,

I have a set of ER 15 and the audologist just refered to them as "musician's
earplugs". I am in Ireland but I know for a fact that mine (and most) are
made in the Netherlands so you should be able to get them made cheaper.

I'm finding mine really hard to get used to and haven't been wearing them as
much as I should. I'm probably going to switch to ER 9's for my purposes (a
musician who sings). one problem is that when you sing or talk with them in
you get that sensation as if you have a cold or flu or your talking with
regular earplugs in. I suppose its to be expected, though I didn't!

Good luck and let me know how you get on,

Martin

Hello All,

to begin with: Happy New Year !!

I'm looking for quality ear protection, and read some good remarks
about the ER 15 and ER 25 Musician's Earplugs form Etymotic Research
on the web and in these groups I do some work as sound engineer at a
local club, so these seem like a good choice.

Does anyone of you know under wich brand-name these are available in
the Netherlands ? One of the audiologists I've spoken to had no idea
what I meant, according to him 'linear ear-plugs do not exist'

Regards,
G. Verheij
