The Hear and Now Plug – Filtered Hearing Protection for Music

I attend rock and heavy concerts regularly and when at small venues my ears tend to ring a lot after due to my older age....I bought these plugs to use only when it seems too loud... and they reduce the noise a lot but without spoiling my enjoyment...they are small enough to fit in a pocket and at only £3.99 are really great value for when I need them...they are easy to just get out and fit when I need them....and are nice and comfortable when in...also with them being black they are not so noticeable

I put these in last night watching The Exploited and they worked well. Sound was good and still clear and the plugs were comfortable. I'll be wearing them again.

Fair value for money earplugs that do work to limit noise damage. I used these at a drum and bass rave and they certainly did work to stop that ringing in your ears afterwards. They were a bit too big for my little ears so I had to keep adjusting them. At one point, the plastic part dropped off, away from the soft bit! Luckily I found it so could continue to use. These were good for one night but I don't think they'd be great for long term, regular use.

These plugs do pretty good job and do it better than the foam like ones. They lower the db to a well tolerable level, comfortable enough and stay in place. Sound quality is decent. There is some loss on the high frequency range. However, I do not thing one can find ear protection that can preserve the whole spectrum intact while lowering the intensity of the sound.Of course one can achieve the best result having the custom made plugs, which provide maximum comfort, protection and sound quality. But they, of course, are not so easily accessible.So the advice is : If you can afford custom based plugs go for it. If not, for any reason, use the "Here and now" plugs. Maybe they cannot fit every ear canal in the same manner, as everyone is different. For me they work very well.I use them for several hours continuously while playing with a band in a small room with high db levels. I have no discomfort whatsoever, they do not fall or move and once done I have no ringing in my ears.

Didn't pay much for these, fell a part during the concert.

An amazing product . Got these to protect my ears as I like to attend live music and they work great for concerts, festivals and loud displays . It was so great to enjoy my night without worrying about damaging my ears . They were very comfortable , hardly noticed them after putting them in , I could even talk to my mates with them in . There were clear instructions on how to put them in which were helpful .

As an Autistic person, I am sensitive to loud noises. I hoped that these earplugs would be a cheap alternative to my normal Etymotics. Alas this was not the case, they are just too big for my ear canal. I normally use the medium and small tips on earphones but these wouldn't go in. The instructions say to roll the foam (like you do with Complys) but the foam returns to its original girth too quickly for me to get in to my ear. The plastic filter painfully digs into my antitragus.The materials used certainly reflect their price tag. Whilst I cannot measure the reduction in sound pressure level, the free earphones that came with my smartphone are more effective.Junk. Went in the bin.

Could have used a good container to carry around, as it were I lost them the same concert I used them at, great for dulling the sound at an incredibly loud event though! So does the job!
