another earplugs thread

Well, I work in mastering so I use 25`s or complete cuts most of the time.
You do generally get a good compromise with 9db cuts though, depending on the brand I suppose, but it cuts the main nastyness (it`s those highs you need to look out for, especially on badly set up rigs, which most squat systems are).

cheers for the replies ;-)
those Elacin seem to get good reviews?

I think I am leaning towards the 15db though, a lot of the sites I have checked seem to recommend 15db for DJing..and I guess they are basing that on legal limits rather than squatparty (un)limits(!)
