I know this is quite the late reply, but I finally got my new plugs in the mail. I had a custom mold done with a local audiologist, and we sent them off to ACS. I chose them for several reasons, one in particular that the review of them done by DDJT seemed convincing. http://www.digitaldjtips.com/2015/10/review-video-acs-pro17-custom-fit-hearing-protectors/.
I decided to go with the 26dB filters at the recommendation of the ACS representative since I already have tinnitus. I had the opportunity to test them out at a gig, and I can say they definitely live up to the quality they are said to have. They fit very comfy, and the very interesting part was that with very little volume they still kind of felt like normal ear plugs, though conversations were maybe a bit more understandable, but it was at the higher volumes I could really notice how they felt like they were still protecting my hearing but allowing a very rich and full sound to come through. It’s somewhat difficult to describe, but it felt like I was almost just listening to music clearly on my speakers at home at a not too loud of a volume. I really recommend people looking into these since I think they could be a very worthwhile investment since they really do help but still allow for one to have an enjoyable experience.
