Earplugs that cut lows?

[cattytown]

Bit of an unusual one this. After decades of playing the odd gig, working the desk and attending many a gig I now need hearing aids.

I would like to reduce further damage.

My hearing is OK up to about 1k and then drops a fair bit. The hearing aids will lift a little, particularly 3-4K

Anyone know of any ear plugs that have greater attenuation at the low end to try to give a similar kind of shape?

Thanks,

Paul.

I can't answer your question, but it sounds similar to the problem I am trying to solve.

If you are thinking in terms of noise isolation and hearing correction with passive ear plugs, the best you might find would be a generic frequency profile that may or may not suit you. An alternative is to go for a hearing aid that carries two profiles, one for every-day use and one for use with moulded inserts to give you the isolation you need at gigs.
