High-ﬁ delity hearing protection for musicians

Professional earplugs for musicians, DJs and sound technicians

As a musician, DJ or sound technician, you often ﬁ nd yourself surrounded by loud music, which means you run a high risk of sustaining hearing damage. Hearing loss has direct consequences for your ability to do your job or enjoy your passion. Properly protecting your hearing is therefore essential during rehearsals, performances and concerts. For professionals in the music industry, Alpine has developed the MusicSafe Pro, the most highend product in our hearing protection range for musicians.

Utilising its nearly twent y-ﬁ ve years of experience, Alpine has developed ﬁ rst-class univers al music earplugs that oﬀ er an unrivalled music experience and level of protection. The clever and extensively tested design of the earplugs guarantees ideal sound attenuation. The revolutionary design of the Alpine MusicSafe Pro earplugs also provides an excellent ﬁ t and positioning in the user’s ears.

diﬀ erent sets of ﬁ lters. With the included gold, silver and white music ﬁ lters, musicians, DJs and sound technicians have the freedom to choose between diﬀ erent levels of sound attenuation for various applications. These ﬁ lters reduce the music volume to a safe level without compromising the music experience at all. The unique AlpineAcousticFilters™ only attenuate harmful sounds. At the same time, they do not aﬀ ect the quality of the music and still allow the wearer to communicate with their fellow musicians at a normal level. It is like turning down the volume a few notches. This not only makes MusicSafe Pro invaluable during performances or in the studio, but also during concerts, rehearsals and teaching sessions. You can choose your own level of sound attenuation in any situation.

Gold ﬁ lter: average attenuation (SNR) 22 dB Silver ﬁ lter: average attenuation (SNR) 19 dB White ﬁ lter: average attenuation (SNR) 16 dB

Practical, comfortable and durable

MusicSafe Pro earplugs are made of the special AlpineThermoShape™ material, which moulds itself to the wearer’s ears becaus e of their own body heat. This means the earplugs are a perfec t ﬁ t for the wearer’s ear canal and will always stay in place, which makes them very comfortable to wear. The thermoplastic material is hypoallergenic, which prevents an itchy sensation in or around the ear. MusicSafe Pro earplugs can be used more than one hundred times. They are available in two colours: transparent and black.

AlpineAcousticFilters optimally protect the hearing without sound distortion.
