MusicSafe Pro is Alpine's musician plug, and its selling point is choice. Each set includes three pairs of AlpineAcousticFilters: white for 16 dB of attenuation, silver for 19 dB and gold for 22 dB. That lets one musician use the light filter for a quiet string rehearsal and the strongest one for a loud rock gig, without buying several pairs. Alpine pitches the plugs at musicians, DJs and sound engineers, and says the filters protect against harmful sound levels while keeping music quality. At $29.95 with a 100-day satisfaction guarantee on its US store, it is the best value for players who want options. The limits are a top setting of 22 dB, which may be light for drummers in small rooms, small filters that need care when you swap them, and less detail from Alpine about how evenly each filter cuts across frequencies.

Who it is for

Players who move between quiet rehearsals and loud gigs and want one set for both.
