Product Description

Hearing loss from loud sound affects millions of people, but noise-induced hearing loss is preventable! ER20XS high-fidelity earplugs reduce sound levels while preserving sound quality and clarity. ER20XS earplugs are configured to replicate the natural response of the ear, so sound quality is the same as the original, only quieter. Music, voices and other sounds are clear--not muffled--making ER20XS ideal for concerts, clubs, festivals, raves, theaters, aircraft, construction, yard work, airshows, parades, and athletic or motorsports events. The new low-profile, stem-less design fits snugly in the outer ear without protruding, making ER20XS comfortable to wear under hats, helmets, and other headgear. The standard-size eartips fit the majority of ears. ER20XS earplugs are reusable, but with repeated use, the eartips may lose elasticity. For best performance and retention, if you use your ER20XS earplugs frequently, replace the eartips every 3-6 months. ER20XS are not recommended for use with impulse noises such as gunfire, or for sleeping. Not intended for shooting.

210 customers mention132 positive78 negative

Customers are mixed about the quality of the earplugs. Some mention they are OK ear plugs, but not that comfortable to wear. The connecting cord seems sturdy enough, and the material is nice and soft and pliable.

"...The overall build quality is decent, though I wish there was a more effective way to clean the earpieces, as they can become unhygienic after..." Read more

Great earplug. They downgraded the case though.
4 Stars
Great earplug. They downgraded the case though.
I've ordered several pair of these and love them, they're my favorite motorcycling earplug. However the last pair I ordered came in a hinged snap case that I just don't trust on a keychain, I can easily squish the new case and make it pop open. The previous pairs all came with a great little case. I'm going to have to go online and see if I can find a case similar to the old one to buy to put these into now.The photo shows the old nice case on the left and the new clear one on the right.
Thank you for your feedback
