Jon:

There is no learning curve.  The world is as it has always been, but
quieter.  You just hear notes and beats like you do in a class where you
are 30 feet away from the piano.  I always wished I could tune from
accross the room.  With the musicians hearing protectors, you can!

Your elbow and shoulder will definately tire before your ears.
