"pounding"

[John M. Formsma]

Jerry,

I looked at Westone's website, and to get the custom fit musician's plugs,
you have to see an audiologist that sells them.  They make molds of your
ear.  I tried to find out how to order the plugs that would fit most
everyone, but I never saw a price for them.

Their website is: http://www.earmold.com
