Your daughter is very sensible . I DJ'd clubs for years through that have lost a bit of my hearing and also have tinnitus.'Evening, all,
My 19 year old daughter has been DJing many weekends the last 6 months & just asked me if I know of any acoustic ear plugs for protection when at gigs / concerts / festivals. Basically anywhere music is played loud.
Any recommendations, please ? Obviously not over-ear stuff.
Did I say that you did? No!Did I say they were better? No!
Did I say they were necessary? No!
No........ He mentioned a workplace where clearly H&S compliance is important. It matters not a jot whether you work in a factory, a building site, a noisy pub......or as a DJ. Hearing protection is subject to the same regulations.Did the OP mentioned a factory, where clearly H&S Legal compliance is important, No.........
I spoke with a very helpful fellow at Alpine here and have now ordered a set of MusicSafe Pro, which has 3 different filters (16, 19 & 22db) https://www.alpine.nl/gehoorbescherming/musicsafe-pro/
He said many DJs and musicians use them here, but if my daughter intends to make a career out of it, then it's worth coming in to be fitted for a pair of MusicSafe Custom 4D @ €149 https://www.alpine.nl/gehoorbescherming/musicsafe-custom/
Thanks, again (& no arguing on my thread, boys )!
Or save yourselves £110 and get the Musician Society ones I mentioned upthread... They’re reputedly the best around so all my musician friends who use them say.
I very much appreciate the link, but we are resident in The Netherlands & my daughter has a Dutch passport, so I doubt she would be eligible.
