Passive hearing protection from Sennheiser

Sennheiser's world-famous headphones are the product of the company's deep research into the science of audio. Their newest pair of passive earplugs, the SoundProtex, were designed to protect your hearing without losing detail. 

Two filters, two levels of hearing protection

The SoundProtex come with two sets of filters. The "Mid" filter lowers the volume of outside sounds while preserving enough high-frequency detail to allow for easy conversation. These filters are perfect for concerts, festivals, traveling, and more. The other filters are aptly named "Full Block" filters. These filters keep out as much sound as possible, perfect for uninterrupted sleeping or relaxing. The Full Block filter can even keep water out of your ears should you decide to go for a swim.

The filters themselves use a specially tuned membrane and a sound dampening mesh to keep noises to a safe level. They reduce high and low frequencies equally and let you hear balanced sound (albeit quieter) without losing any detail.

Low-profile design

These earplugs are hardly noticeable thanks to their low-profile design — unlike many kinds of regular foam earplugs. They fit deep in the ear canal for an almost invisible look. And they stay comfy all day. The SoundProtex come with three different sizes of ear tips for a good fit in your ears.

Features

Overview: The Sennheiser SoundProtex are hearing protection earplugs with selectable acoustic filters for choosing the amount of sound attenuation you want. They are ideal for use at concerts, motorsports, and loud work environments, or if you just want some peace and quiet to help you concentrate. Unlike single-use earplugs, you can use SoundProtex over and over. In addition to the acoustic filters (Mid and Full), three sizes of silicone eartips are included, along with a small zippered storage pouch.

Filtered Protection: Typical earplugs muffle the sound, which can ruin your concert experience. Sennheiser's extensive knowledge of sound enabled their engineers to preserve the experience of live music while protecting your hearing from excessive decibels. Their patented membrane filter technology lets you enjoy the balanced, full frequency sound of a concert with all its sonic details without damaging your hearing. The filters reduce the sound pressure that reaches your ears, which many times exceeds 100dB at a concert. Exposure to high decibel levels for more than 15 minutes can put the listener at risk of hearing damage. The ringing in your ears after a concert is not healthy.

Two-Stage Filters: The SoundProtex filters have two stages which allow both high and low frequencies to pass, giving you clear, balanced sound. The combination of a tuned membrane and a sound-dampening mesh reduce the high and low frequencies equally. Because human speech is found in higher frequencies, you can still have normal conversations while wearing SoundProtex earplugs. Standard earplugs mask the higher frequencies making it difficult to understand conversation.

Mid or Full Block: The package includes two sets of sound-blocking acoustic filters. The Mid filters let you enjoy some filtration while maintaining ambient awareness. It has an EPA Noise Reduction Rating of 10 decibels, reducing the volume by around half. To eliminate as much sound as possible, you should use the included Full Block filter. SoundProtex earplugs with the Full Block filter are also air- and water-tight, and can even protect your ears from water while swimming.

EarTips: Three pairs of eartips are included in the box. The eartips are made of soft, flexible, medical-grade TPE (thermoplastic elastomer), which does not contain plasticizers or other substances that could irritate the sensitive skin in the ear. The triple-flanged eartips come in three sizes: small (for ear canals measuring 5-10mm), medium (6-11mm), and large (7-12mm). The eartips can be used as often as you like, and can be wiped off or rinsed under water after use. The eartips include a tab for easy removal.
