The Benefits of Wearing Technologically Advanced Earplugs

1. The Benefits of Wearing Technologically Advanced Earplugs Wearing good earplugs is the first line of defense in terms of protecting your hearing if your ears are often exposed to loud sound. Examples that refer to are shooters and their instructors at the shooting range, hunters in the bush, the military and similar agencies, and also musicians and DJs in clubs who have to listen to abnormally loud noise regularly. One option is the technologically advanced electronic earplugs that you can order from select services that prepare them for their customers. As opposed to disposable foam plugs and certain categories of ear muffs, the electronic earplug is digitally enhanced and offers the user so much more than the older generations of earplugs ever did. So what exactly do these electronic earplugs do? The quick answer is that they compress abnormally loud sounds by a process of converting the sound waves that enter your ears into digital format. This digital code/format can then be changed to a sound acceptable to your ears’ sensitivities, which will not be the same sound that reaches your ears, but a sound that has been programmed into digital format or circuitry. This compression technology you will find with the electronic earplugs at the higher end. They will, typically, convert or compress sound over a certain level of intensity so that not all sound is cut off, but that sounds at lower dB levels will still be allowed through. In essence, therefore: leading electronic earplugs are digitally enhanced to cut off sounds that could be damaging to your hearing while allowing normal, acceptable sound through. This technology favors the hunter and shooter as they no longer have to worry about damaging their hearing, which is the case when no protection is worn, or when a sub-standard earplug is one’s choice. The digitally advanced option will be more expensive indeed, which is perfectly understandable as it requires the input of specialists such as audiologists, designers, and other professionals who all contribute invaluable ideas in terms of how these earplugs are manufactured, and how the user benefits. Technically these plugs combine passive sound attenuation with digital code as part of a pre- programmed technical process that cancels out the severity of dangerous sounds, while at the same time allowing through those sounds that are deemed ‘safe’ for the ear. This technology is found in modern, advanced devices such as those that are worn inside the ear, typically an in-ear plug, or some ear muffs that you wear over the ears. These devices have external microphones and internal speakers, with the user able to adjust the levels of intensity so that he/she can hear sounds at a level acceptable to their ears. When a loud sound, a sound of unacceptably high dB, is heard, the circuitry inside the device simply cuts off the amplification that is picked up by the speakers and remains there until the sound returns to normal levels. For the person using one of these devices, the benefits speak for themselves: potentially damaging sounds are blocked before they reach a certain dB level, while normal sounds still pass through. This means the hunter can talk to his mate, and shooters at the range can hear their friends and the instructor, but those high-volume gunshot sounds are canceled out.

2. The same applies in any set of circumstances where users wear these for protection – the military and law enforcement; DJs playing in clubs, even the revelers; employees in extremely noisy factories; those working near jets and aircraft taking off – and more. The electronic earplug is indeed the preferred option, even if ear muffs and lesser devices offer some protection.
