Individual hearing protectors

At festivals and concerts, sound pressure levels range from around 90-100 decibels. At these decibels, there is a risk of hearing damage after just 15 minutes of listening. In general, festivals and concerts last for several hours, so the risk of hearing damage is very high. The sheer mass of the human mass alone raises the decibel level to dangerously high levels. We therefore recommend wearing hearing protection at all concerts and music events.

Even in nightclubs, decibel levels often rise to levels that can damage hearing. Crowds and music raise sound levels indoors to very high levels. According to measurements by the German Hearing Association (spring 2008), the average sound level in restaurants is around 96 decibels. Even an hour at 94 decibels is damaging to hearing and if the sound level rises to 100 decibels, 15 minutes is enough to damage hearing. Good acoustics will reduce the sound pressure level in a restaurant, but this is something we cannot control. The only thing we can do is protect our hearing and this can be done comfortably with personalised hearing protection.

In music hobbies, sound levels vary widely. Often, the sound levels will temporarily rise above harmful levels and, if music is played daily, it will put considerable strain on hearing in the long term. Different instruments also produce different sounds. For example, it is much more important for a drummer to protect his hearing than for a violinist, as percussive noise is much more dangerous than steady noise. We recommend using personalised noise protection for all your musical activities so that you can enjoy music for a lifetime.

In motorcycling, the noise from the bike itself can exceed 85db, but the airflow into the helmet can also raise the decibel level to hearing-impaired levels. There are several factors that influence noise levels in motorcycling (motorcycle, helmet, speed, riding position, road surface). When riding a motorcycle, it is important that the hearing protector fits perfectly and softly in the ear so that it does not interfere with the ear in any way. Custom hearing protectors are the perfect solution for this and you can enjoy the summer asphalt bans without any worries.

The hearing protectors include one set of Dm brand filters. There are a number of different filter options and it always depends on the situation where hearing protection is needed. As an option, the hearing protectors are also available separately with interchangeable filters and headphones or neckloops that attach to the protectors. The table below shows the attenuation levels of the different filters. Depending on the situation, we can choose hearing protectors with more attenuation of high frequencies or more attenuation of low frequencies.

You can get these great hearing protectors for €250. The delivery time is about 3-4 weeks. Book an appointment with one of our partners and ask for more information!
