right - my mum is talking me into getting these £60 ear plugs that r ment to be scientifically designed so u can hear convos but it dampens loud noices.

 

she said she would pay 4 em as well

 

 

i've been seriously considering wareing plugs into sum venues 4 a while now but i wanna know if these proper designed 1s that r ment to protect ur hearing r ne cop 4 clubbing compared to the cheepy 1s u get in boots that dont actually protect ur hearing, just make it less loud

get some cheapos from Boots.

ys that? what makes em better 4 clubbing?

The more expensive ones are designed to cut out the high frequencies better than the cheap ones. These freqs are the ones that do the damage. I have a pair and wear them DJing sometimes and they do help.

those r the 1s - they r designed to look hidden being flesh coloured n all

 

but do they go horrible in your ear due to the sweet n all? and does it screw around with the sound quality (ie cutting out entire freqs of music so the music dont sound right?

 

basically i wanna know if its worth waring in a club

No, the music will still sound tops, i am able to mix when i wear them.

Will stop you from getting tinitus aswell, am seeing more and more ppl wearing them. Sometimes if the club system is a little too trebley and theres a bit of distortion, if you wear them it will sound better as your cutting out the really high frequencies causing the distortion

liam, that looks like really good advice and interesting about the treble thing!! i just read this post and considered getting some too, and i'm a wee bit stoned, and the rolling eyes smiley isnt there ne more!!

 

My mate is 30 and has dj'd nearly every week for 6 years, and now has a constant ringing in his ear (tinitus) He says it keeps him awake evry night and is therefore always tired. I dont want that [censored] to happen to me, so wear my earplugs more and more now.

ickle_m0nster wears nifty looking ear plugs....

Why.....am i useless?

He clubs in them, not DJs!

Do i not DJ in clubs? Surely there is no difference. I dont DJ allnight and do actually walk around the club, dance, talk to ppl.

 

strange

Ooooooo touchy cunt!

No, was just sayin.
