Vibes Hi-Fidelity Earplugs review

Vibes Hi-Fidelity Earplugs are designed for live music first. Vibes says the plugs filter specific frequencies so you hear the band clearly while the overall level drops, and it rates them at about 22 dB of reduction across frequencies, or 15 NRR. The design is minimal, with a clear outer sound tube that makes them hard to spot, and the ear tips are soft, washable and come in multiple fit sizes. Vibes also markets them for fitness classes, motorsports and people with sensory sensitivities. The current price on the Vibes store is $28.95, down from $33.99, with a plastic pocket case in the box. An aluminum keychain case costs $9.95 extra and a neck cord $3.50. The product page publishes less detail than most rivals on tip sizes, warranty and returns, so check the store before you buy. For a straightforward concert plug under $30, Vibes is a fair option.
