Which Musician Ear Plugs are right for me?

Why musicians need ear plugs.

Musicians are exposed to loud sound more often — and for longer — than almost anyone else. Whether you're rehearsing in a tight space, performing on stage, or standing near drum kits and amps, repeated exposure to high volumes puts your hearing at serious risk.
Musician ear plugs help protect your ears without compromising the sound you need to perform well. They reduce the overall volume while preserving clarity, pitch, and tone — so you can play confidently, comfortably, and safely.
Musician Ear Plugs Explained

Musician ear plugs use specialised acoustic filters that lower sound evenly across all frequencies — preserving the natural tone and balance of instruments and vocals. This makes them far superior to foam or general-use plugs, which often muffle or distort sound.
They’re ideal for rehearsals, live performances, recording sessions, and even music teaching environments. Many models are reusable, discreet, and designed for long wear — whether you’re in a 3-hour gig or an all-day studio session.
The best ear plugs for musicians.

The best ear plugs for musicians depend on your instrument, environment, and volume levels. Drummers and electric guitarists may need higher levels of noise reduction, while singers and acoustic performers often prefer lighter filters that preserve more detail.
Look for filtered plugs with interchangeable filters or variable attenuation levels, so you can tailor your protection to different settings. Our range includes trusted options for solo performers, orchestras, bands, and touring musicians — all tested and recommended for serious stage use.

Why do I need ear plugs as a musician?

No one relies on their hearing more than musicians. Whether you're an amateur or professional musician, the ability to recognise and respond to a wide frequency and amplitude range is an essential skill for anyone who makes music. Earjobs stocks a wide range of musician hearing protection solutions, including foam ear plugs, metal ear plugs, and reusable silicone ear plugs among others.

Without appropriate hearing protection, musicians often experience tinnitus and hearing loss as the result of loud music exposure. Tinnitus is a physical condition that involves subjective ringing and humming sounds in the ears. While this condition can be annoying for anyone, musicians suffer more than most. Musicians are more likely to suffer from tinnitus than the general population, with regular concerts, practice sessions, and DJ sets subjecting people to loud decibel levels on an ongoing basis.

Our range of high fidelity DJ and music ear plugs lower the volume without sacrificing the sound quality. You can play longer and harder than ever before without risking your most important tool. Whether you're a drummer in a rock band, a jazz pianist, or a deep house DJ, our ear plugs will protect your ears while keeping you locked in the groove. If you want to avoid tinnitus and hearing loss for years to come, musician ear protection from Earjobs is absolutely vital.

What do concert ear plugs do?

When you wear specialised ear plugs for concerts, you’ll be protecting your ears from loud noise that can cause long lasting damage. These types of ear plugs will stop excessive sound from reaching your ear drums, and the cells in the cochlear where the damage can occur.

How effective are ear plugs at concerts?

In short, music ear plugs for concerts are highly effective. When you wear these at a concert, you’ll be considerably reducing the risk of damaging your hearing. The lower the decibels and unlike regular ear plugs, they block high pitch and low pitch sounds from entering the ear canal and causing harm to your eardrum.

What kind of ear plugs should I wear at gigs?

While any kind of ear plugs will help lessen the chance of harm being caused to your hearing, not all ear plugs were created equal. There are lots of different ear plugs for sale at Earjobs including swimming ear plugs, noise cancelling ear plugs and musician ear plugs that eliminate high pitched and low pitches noise.
