Alpine PartyPlug Pro Natural Music Ear Plugs – Noise Reduction Ear Plugs for Concerts, Parties, and Festivals - Hypoallergenic Reusable Musician Ear Plugs for Noise Reduction

I have worn earplugs for decades in industrial environments and now in retirement, I use them in movie theatres and musical performances. The foam earplugs work fine in one ear, but I could not get any brand of foam plugs to stay sealed in the other ear until I got these! Not only were they effective during the music, but also stayed comfortably in my ears as I slept back at the noisy campground ,with my CPAP strapped to my face to boot! Bonus feature is the tiny hard-sided carrying case that is easy to find by feel in my handbag.

Before I ordered the Alpine Partyplugs, I read the reviews here. I didn't realize the reviews covered all models of Alpine plugs. I assumed mine would arrive with interchangeable gold and silver filters, as so many reviewers discussed. They did not. So keep that in mind when reading the reviews. That said, the plugs were delivered on time.When I first attempted to insert the plugs using the tool, I could not get them in at all. This went on for some time, even with my wife helping. Using the tool was painful, and other than once or twice, the tool would not do the job. Apparently I have very small ear canals, and the tool was making the plug larger than what would comfortably fit. Then I tried inserting without the tool, simply pushing in with my finger. Viola! Works quickly and easily, every time. They stay in, and I have no problem removing them... no tool needed.Now, the reason for five stars. I put them to the "acid test" last night, and they absolutely worked. My wife and I love a local rock band that also happens to be extremely loud. So loud, that it was scaring me as my left ear would " hum" for 2 or 3 days after! We sat up front last night, in front of the speakers, and today, no ear problems! The music sounded great, as always. Yes, conversation was a bit muffled, but not bad.The plugs came with a small case. But be careful not to lose them... they're small! They're clear, and not noticeable in my ear. The Alpine Partyplugs work wonderfully for me. That said, ears come in all shapes and sizes. So your mileage may vary. If they didn't work for me last night, I would have returned them. But for me, they're a five star product.

Good sound and comfortable in my ears, but they can be pretty difficult to extract because they don't have kind of bits sticking out to grab onto with your fingers.

My son does not love loud venues. Especially for a prolonged amount of time. We went to a concert as a family and I bought these for him hoping he would be a little more comfortable. He really appreciated having them. They were comfortable and fit my teenager well. It doesn’t block out all the noise - you can feel the music with this type of concert, but it was enough to keep him happy. Would definitely buy again even though it’s a bit pricey.

The difference is xlear

Small, good, comfortable fit, blocks noise, overall good product for the price

These are comfortable, and they worked great. I could hear the music, but it was comfortable. I did not leave the production with a migraine. So happy to have these for future performances!

Packed really bad. When open the ear plugs just fell on my desk. I got the feeling that the ear plugs was already used just as thoese looked and packed (there wasn’t any seal to the ear plugs as I used to see with even the cheapest ones I bought). After this I tried them. When using without live music it is fine, voice is clear and it reduce I believe sounds that are too loud. When using it with live music it has some very loud echo which make it impossible to enjoy the music. I tried to put it again and so on but this sound (which wasn’t in the music) kept to be heard when those were on. When touching the filter the sound stopped so I guess it the feature of the filter.So this product wasn’t what I was expected for this brand and for this price tag.Just to mention that I have experience with other ear plugs for music that were amazing and expected something similar. Also with cheap ear plugs I use sometimes for sleep etc which are much more effective (those doesn’t have any “new” echo sound). The product quality here and the package is so poor that I think it’s not worth buying.Very bad. I would definitely return mine and not buy again from that brand.
