Pro Ears Audiomorphic Plug Small-Black

Audiomorphic Ear Plugs, by Pro Ears, are engineered to disrupt harmful sound waves when it is loud, but allow minimal sound blockage when it is quiet. The Audiomorphic earplug looks similar to many triple flange earplugs. What sets them apart is the precisely designed micro-orifice in a very specific thickness plate leading into a resonance chamber of a specific diameter. These design features limit and disrupt increasing amounts of a sound wave as the wave amplitude increases. Most ear plugs have linear attenuation, meaning, they block the same amount of sound no matter how loud your environment. This is good when it is loud but not good if you want to hear something when it is quieter. If you want to hear game when in the woods, or talk to your shooting buddy when at the range, you either have to shout or take out your ear plugs when wearing a traditional ear plug. The Audiomorphic earplug has nonlinear attenuation. They block very little sound when it is quiet and, block more sound as it gets louder. You never need to remove your earplugs to hear the quieter sounds and you stay protected as it gets louder. The Audiomorphic ear plug was developed under contract from DARPA (the same folks that funded the development of the internet) to allow US Army field artillerymen to be able to communicate and stay protected without wearing electronic hearing protectors. Because the level of sound blocked continuously increases as the sound increases from 70 dB to 170 dB, the amount blocked from 120 dB to 140 dB is less than a traditional earplug and things will be louder. As you get up to 150 dB, and more, they actually block equal or more than most standard ear plugs.
