[QUOTE="Evan F. Hunter, post: 2424, member: 73"] I hope this isnt exactly the same as all the other earplug threads... Being a soldier and audio engineer can have conflicting interests on your ears. Im having trouble finding earplugs that I can wear comfortably for long periods of time, up to 24 hours but usually around 8-18 hours a day. The real killer for me is at times I need to wear a headset that presses on the ear plugs and causes pain in my ears very shortly after putting it on. The headsets by themselves arent comfortable to wear for any length of time. Ive thought about molded, electronic ear plugs, but between all the dirt and sweat im not sure how long they would last, the dust here is insane. Also not sure how the electronics would deal with any type of blast. Ive cut the ends of of the military standard issue earplugs and I still cant get them short enough to still protect and not hurt with the headset. Any ideas? If I can help it id like to come back with the same hearing I came here with. [/QUOTE]
