Open ear audio recordings

These sound files replicate the experience of you listening to music without earplugs. For the most authentic experience, please use high-quality headphones and adjust the volume to a realistic, but safe, concert level. Enjoy the immersive sound as if you were there live.

Normal recordings

These sound files simulate the experience of you wearing the earplugs while listening to music. They have been filtered to match the performance we measured in our lab. Compare the resulting sound quality and the degree of sound reduction they offer.

Level-matched audio

Loudness of earplug audio is artificially raised to match that of open ear (to enable evaluation of sound quality only)
