What is the opinion of Reddit about the
Vic Firth DB22 Isolation Headphones for Hearing Protection?

Dude forget about $2 foam ear plugs lol just spend $30 on these and they’ll last forever and do the job properly

I have mostly worn ear protection (only didn’t initially due to being young and dumb). I am a drummer, I wear ear protection, but as others have mentioned so do the rest of the members in my band. I personally wear over the ear mufflers found here for example .

The damage is especially noticeable at live shows, both as a musician and as a concert goer. I don’t typically wear ear plugs to shows (as a concert goer) but have started to recently in smaller settings where maybe I’m standing closer to the speakers.

All in the name of being able to shred (and hear yourself shred) for as long as possible!

Best thing I’ve found and that is very cost effective is to just get these and wear them over your earbuds.

Try noise cancelling headphones (the ones designed to wear when shooting guns) with noise canceling ear plugs underneath them. On amazon. The headphones themselves are pretty good.

This is an example. https://www.amazon.com/Vic-Firth-DB22-Headphones-Protection/dp/B0002F513E/ref=sr_1_4?dchild=1&keywords=gun+noise+cancelling+headphones&qid=1586446479&s=electronics&sr=1-4

Check these out.

Vic Firth makes pretty much the same thing branded/geared for drumming.

There is no real upper limit to ear protection. You can pay as much or as little as you want, and they all pretty much work.

Oh look, for $9 more you could just buy drummer ear muffs instead.
