WAM MEMBER OFFER FOR JULY

Musician's Ear Valves
Hear Today, Hear Tomorrow
www.myspace.com/HearTodayHearTomorrow
+61 402 744 141
HearTodayHearTomorrow@live.com

Musician’s Ear Valves are patented, special purpose hearing protectors for musicians and music industry personnel. Musician’s Ear Valves provide 6dB of attenuation below 1 kHz, and up to 23dB at 8 kHz. The effect is that sounds maintain more of their original tonal balance than with ordinary earplugs, with very good protection from the damaging high-frequency noise. In addition, the mechanical valve offers hearing protection against the impulse noises of highly amplified music. The earplugs feature a comfortable silicon exterior and come in a handy carry case that can be attached to your keyring - they can be reused hundreds of times.

These cleanable, reusable earplugs come highly recommended by industry luminaries such as Simon Kelly, Eskimo Joe and The Sleepy Jackson. Hear today, hear tomorrow - thanks to Musician’s Ear Valves!
