Eargasm High Fidelity Filtered Earplug Review. Dr. Cliff Olson, Audiologist and founder of Applied Hearing Solutions in Anthem Arizona, reviews the Eargasm Filtered Earplugs.
Maximizing the protection of your hearing is highly advised if you find yourself in a noisy situation, particularly if you want to prevent against hearing loss and tinnitus. However, sometimes using foam hearing protectors or ear muffs provide too much protection if you are trying to appreciate live music or understand speech. In these situations, using a filtered earplug may make more sense.
That's why I decided to check out the Eargasm High Fidelity Filtered Earplugs for this review. Eargasm is a company that uses it's name, that is an obviously clever play on words, to market it's flat attenuation hearing protectors. They have a variety of different earplug options from their Regular plugs to a smaller version.
These plugs have an NRR or Noise Reduction Rating of 16. The higher this number the more protection it provides. Scores typically range from 0-31. Unlike ear muffs and foam plugs, that provide an NRR of 24-31, filtered earplugs provide an even level of attenuation to keep things like music and speech sounding natural, just not as loud.
Imagine that you are listening to music inside your car. Now imagine that you turn the treble all the way down. That is what you are doing when you wear traditional hearing protectors because they attenuate the high-frequencies more than the low-frequencies. This creates an unnatural listening experience.
The attenuation profile of the Eargasm Filtered plugs is very flat compared to a traditional foam plug. It ranges between 25 and 35 dB of attenuation from 125 Hz to 8,000 Hz.
The last time I was in Nashville, and everyone who has been to Nashville knows that everywhere you go there is live music, I wore filtered earplugs and it significantly improved how well I could hear my friends by lowering the sound of the music.
I also wore Eargasm plugs to my friend's wedding on New Years Eve. That was an insanely loud wedding, but I was able to have great conversation with my friends, and I left without my ears ringing and without feeling like I lost hearing.
The Eargasm earplugs seem to work great, but there are a few things that I am not a fan of. First, the Regular size is way too big. I have larger ear canals and they still wouldn't fit my ear canals. This is even a problem for the models on their website. If you can see the plugs sticking out of your ear they are not inserted properly. Fortunately, they have a smaller version of these plugs that fit my ears perfectly.
Second, they only offer one level of attenuation. With around 30 dB of flat attenuation, it is go big or go home. Other companies offer filtered plugs with 16 dB, 20 dB, and 25 dB of flat attenuation so you can pick the right level for the environment you are in.
Otherwise, the Eargasm High Fidelity Filtered Earplugs are great and I highly recommend them if you want to protect against hearing loss and tinnitus, but want to still appreciate music and conversation in a noisy environment.

However, you can take several steps to help you sleep with tinnitus. The RNID fact sheet on how to sleep with tinnitus provides the following useful advice:
Try relaxation exercises.
Try regular exercise. Fit people tend to sleep better. But avoid exercising too close to bedtime.
Go to bed when you feel sleepy and not just because it is a certain time. If you are not asleep in 20 or 30 minutes, get up, go to another room and do something quiet and relaxing, like reading. Go back to bed when you feel sleepy again.
Get up at the same time every day. This is one of the most important things you can do to improve sleep.
Try to limit the amount of caffeine and nicotine you have at night, as these are stimulants.
Keep your room at a temperature neither too cold nor too hot.
Do not read or watch TV in bed before trying to go to sleep. This would only make you feel more alert.
”?Wind down' for at least an hour before bedtime.
A special clock radio or sound pillow, emitting soothing sounds in your bedroom, including the sounds of waves and birdsong may help you relax and fall asleep.
In the quiet of your bedroom the constant ringing in your ear may become particularly annoying and deprive you of a good night's rest.
Tinnitus is usually described as a ringing in the ears, but it can also sound like clicking, hissing, roaring, or buzzing. Tinnitus involves perceiving sound when no external noise is present. The sound can be very soft or very loud, and high-pitched or low-pitched. Some people hear it in one ear and others hear it in both. People with severe tinnitus may have problems hearing, working, or sleeping.
Tinnitus is not a disease — it’s a symptom. It’s a sign that something is wrong with your auditory system, which includes your ear, the auditory nerve that connects the inner ear to the brain, and the parts of the brain that process sound. There are a variety of different conditions that can cause tinnitus. One of the most common is noise-induced hearing loss.
There is no cure for tinnitus. However, it can be temporary or persistant, mild or severe, gradual or instant. The goal of treatment is to help you manage your perception of the sound in your head. There are many treatments available that can help reduce the perceived intensity of tinnitus, as well as its omnipresence. Tinnitus remedies may not be able to stop the perceived sound, but they can improve your quality of life.
Tinnitus remedies
1. Hearing aids
Most people develop tinnitus as a symptom of hearing loss. When you lose hearing, your brain undergoes changes in the way it processes sound frequencies. A hearing aid is a small electronic device that uses a microphone, amplifier, and speaker to increase the volume of external noises. This can mollify neuroplastic changes in the brain’s ability to process sound.
If you have tinnitus, you may find that the better you hear, the less you notice your tinnitus. A 2007 survey of healthcare providers published in The Hearing Review, found that roughly 60 percent of people with tinnitus experienced at least some relief from a hearing aid. Roughly 22 percent found significant relief.
2. Sound-masking devices
Sound-masking devices provide a pleasant or benign external noise that partially drowns out the internal sound of tinnitus. The traditional sound-masking device is a tabletop sound machine, but there are also small electronic devices that fit in the ear. These devices can play white noise, pink noise, nature noises, music, or other ambient sounds. Most people prefer a level of external sound that is just slightly louder than their tinnitus, but others prefer a masking sound that completely drowns out the ringing.
Some people use commercial sound machines designed to help people relax or fall asleep. You can also use headphones, television, music, or even a fan.
A 2017 study in the journal Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience found that masking was most effective when using broadband noise, such as white noise or pink noise. Nature sounds proved much less effective.
3. Modified or customized sound machines
Standard masking devices help to mask the sound of tinnitus while you are using them, but they have no long-lasting effects. Modern medical-grade devices use customized sounds tailored specifically to your tinnitus. Unlike regular sound machines, these devices are only worn intermittently. You may experience benefits long after the device is turned off, and over time, you may experience long-term improvement in the perceived loudness of your tinnitus.
Tinnitus is associated with a high level of emotional stress. Depression, anxiety, and insomnia are not uncommon in people with tinnitus. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a type of talk therapy that helps people with tinnitus learn to live with their condition. Rather than reducing the sound itself, CBT teaches you how to accept it. The goal is to improve your quality of life and prevent tinnitus from driving you crazy.
CBT involves working with a therapist or counselor, typically once per week, to identify and change negative thought patterns. CBT was initially developed as a treatment for depression and other psychological problems, but it seems to work well for people with tinnitus. Several studies and meta-reviews, including one published in the Korean Journal of Audiology, have found that CBT significantly improves irritation and annoyance that often comes with tinnitus.
5. Progressive tinnitus management
Progressive tinnitus management (PTM) is a therapeutic treatment program offered by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. Tinnitus is one of the most common disabilities seen in veterans of the armed services. The loud noises of war (and training) often lead to noise-induced hearing loss.
Tinnitus treatment often involves a combination of approaches. Your doctor may recommend medication as part of your treatment. These drugs may help make your tinnitus symptoms less annoying, thereby improving your quality of life. Antianxiety drugs are also an effective treatment for insomnia.
A study published in Medical Science Monitor found that an antianxiety drug called alprazolam (Xanax) provides some relief for tinnitus sufferers.
According to the American Tinnitus Association, most cases of tinnitus are caused by hearing loss. Occasionally though, tinnitus is caused by an irritation to the auditory system. Tinnitus can sometimes be a symptom of a problem with the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). If your tinnitus is caused by TMJ, then a dental procedure or realignment of your bite may alleviate the problem.
Tinnitus can also be a sign of excess earwax. Removal of an earwax blockage may be enough to make mild cases of tinnitus disappear. Foreign objects lodged against the eardrum can also cause tinnitus. An ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist can perform an exam to check for obstructions in the ear canal.
8. Exercise
Exercise contributes significantly to your overall well-being. Tinnitus can be aggravated by stress, depression, anxiety, lack of sleep, and illness. Regular exercise will help you manage stress, sleep better, and stay healthier.
9. Mindfulness-based stress reduction
During an eight-week course of mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), participants develop the skills to control their attention through mindfulness training. Traditionally, the program was designed to draw people’s attention away from their chronic pain, but it can be equally effective for tinnitus.
The similarities between chronic pain and tinnitus have led researchers to develop a mindfulness-based tinnitus stress reduction (MBTSR) program. The results of a pilot study, which were published in The Hearing Journal, found that participants of an eight-week MBTSR program experienced significantly altered perceptions of their tinnitus. This included a reduction in depression and anxiety.
10. DIY mindfulness meditation
You don’t need to enroll in an eight-week program to get started with mindfulness training. Participants in the MBTSR program all received a copy of the groundbreaking book “Full Catastrophe Living” by Jon Kabat-Zinn. Kabat-Zinn’s book is the premier manual for practicing mindfulness in daily life. You will learn about, and be encouraged to practice, meditation and breathing techniques that can help draw your focus away from tinnitus.
11. Alternative treatments
There are several alternative or complementary tinnitus treatment options, including:
nutritional supplements
homeopathic remedies
acupuncture
hypnosis
None of these treatment options are supported by science. Many people are convinced that the herb gingko biloba is helpful, however large-scale studies have been unable to prove this. There are many nutritional supplements claiming to be tinnitus remedies. These are usually a combination of herbs and vitamins, often including zinc, ginkgo, and vitamin B-12.
These dietary supplements have not been evaluated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and are not supported by scientific research. However, anecdotal reports suggest that they may help some people.
When to see your doctor
Tinnitus is rarely a sign of a serious medical condition. Talk to your primary care doctor if you are unable to sleep, work, or hear normally. Your doctor will probably examine your ears and then provide you with a referral to an audiologist and otolaryngologist.
However, if you are experiencing facial paralysis, sudden hearing loss, foul-smelling drainage, or a pulsating sound in sync with your heartbeat, you should go to your local emergency department.
Tinnitus can be extremely distressing for some people. If you or someone you love is thinking about suicide, you should go to the emergency room right away.
Takeaway
Tinnitus is a frustrating condition. There’s no simple explanation for it and there’s no simple cure. But there are ways to improve your quality of life. Cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness meditation are promising treatment options.
