Ear Peace Ear Plugs Review

Tried out my new Ear Peace ear plugs today and here are some first impressions.  These ear plugs are light and comfortable and fit well.  They also mute the sound of wind noise quite a bit.  The most notable thing about these plugs are their ability to completely eliminate the higher pitched whistling sounds associated with wind noise.  So far the only down side I see is that they are a bit pricey.

Personally, I prefer foam ear plugs. I use the max damping commonly available (36 dB IIRC). My wife cringe when I suck on them to wet them with spit before fitting, although I do clean them after each use :D
 
I do have friends, though, who prefer the style of plug you use.

Thanks for this... Been looking for something exactly like this!

If god created us in his image, does that mean god is an egomaniac as well?

I use the foam ear plugs also when I am not going to listen to music but when I want to listen to music. I plug these into my Sena and use them instead. They don't block as much wind noise as the foam plugs but still block out quite a bit of it.

*Don't read this if you have a weak stomach or are grossed out easily.* Ok, that's sorta funny but I can see where she's coming from. That's about as enticing as an FDA approved, fecal burger.

I learned it from watching racers on TV, and it really makes fitting them miles easier. Although I do agree it looks disgusting. Probably because it is. But no worse than licking fingers after eating something, or liking fingers to make it easier to turn the news paper pages;)

After going for a longer ride today, I am tempted to try the Ear Peace HD plugs.  They come with two sets of filters: one rated at 11 db of noise reduction and one rated at 14 db of noise reduction.  The original Ear Peace plugs that I have now are rated at 10 db of noise reduction--maybe a little quieter would be even better.

Why would you want only 11dB of protection? Every foam plug I have ever used was at least 29dB.
 
Just find a pair that fits. Not all ear canals are the same. I use Moldex, Leight, and Radians brands.

I still want to hear the engine (I run stock exhaust) and the sound of the wind, but just want the wind noise toned down a bit so its not annoying at highway speeds. :)

It's not just 10-15dB through the entire frequency range, it specifically attacks the low and high ends of the range hardcore and only cuts the "mids" 10-15dB.
 
I've been using EarPeace for a long time and they work great IMO. I was using my Shure SE425's with my Sena, but with the yellow foam on them (cuts by 32dB) they isolate too much.

It's all about keeping that rubber side down.
