<DIV>Greetings,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> I have a set of musician's ear plugs. THey <EM>do</EM> let you hear the beats while tuning, but they also muffle the other fainter vibrations. I could get used to them for tuning, I have tried but I like hearing the beats out right. And, no, musicuan's earplugs do not enable you to hear beats better than natural hearing, they actually muffle alittle. I prefer to tune without them. </DIV>
