yea me too, was kinda wonderin how people could speak on him for a whole five pages tho...

i think the scariest thing about f*ckin wit your hearing is when you imagine how it may effect your life overall when you're old.

what do you think you can do with your time when you cant

-listen to music
-watch films without subtitles
-go to parties
-have conversations with more than two people in the room.

it sounds extreme but i've seen people go through it. trust, hearing would be one of the last of my senses i would want to live without.

I just use foam ones that someone gave me for free again and again like a tramp, even if i drop them on the floor I stll use them, beats wet tissue paper any day!

yes

i've had the blind vs deaf debate ad nauseum in the pub. i'd easily give up my sight instead of my hearing.

the post-dmz tinnitus i pranged out and started a thread about has cleared up now, but i'm going to invest in some earplugs because it really worried me. if anyone can recommend any i'd be much obliged.

i'd also like to know how much they affect your enjoyment of the music...it's all well & good being able to feel the bass in your chest but do they muffle the sound so much that you can barely hear it?

pk - moulded plugs don't muffle sound, especially once you've adjusted to them. takes about 15 minutes and after that you barely notice you're wearing them.

have a quick read of the whole thread

yeah such a shame about that... haven't heard ANYTHING about him recently

How about djing with moulded plugs?
I got me some moulded plugs some years ago, but I cant get used to wear them when I dj.
It makes my ears hurt because of the headphones, and it makes me turn the volume up a bit to much, because I want to hear more clearly what I do.

Could it be that my moulded plugs was badly made ? or does it take a long time to get used to? I think they are -9db.

i dj with the custom 25s in. it's all good, you just need a decent monitor

I DJ with moulded ones and its just as easy, if not easier, to hear everything than it would be without them.

and it didn´t take time to get used to ?
sounds like I got a bad brand or something . . .

I am getting £300 from my work for ‘personal development’ and I am hopefully going to blag some good earplugs and some headphones out of it, say some shit about DJing being my main hobby for developing etc etc.

Can someone plz direct me to the best plugs for c. £100-150 as can’t be bothered to read everything.

Cheers!!

Thank the lord i found this thread
I have recently got some new monitors and been pumping them constantly.
my right ear now feels like I have just ascended a few thousand feet in a plane.

I need to take it easy and get myself some sub bass condoms pronto.

Personally I think blind would be much worse. Constantly in the dark.
At least being deaf you could feel the bass, and never have to listen to chris moyels' voice ever again

yeah definitely couldnt live without my hearing.
which makes it quite worrying that theres something wrong with my ears, i keep getting pain in them especially when djing or near loud speakers etc. dont think its tinnitus tho as theres no ringing. i went to the doctor and he said he didnt know what it could be and not to worry, easier said than done tho as im sure it cant be right to be getting pain
