Custom Earplugs w/ use under HD-25
Posted on: 24.01.2013 by Josie Bamba
Hey everyone. I understand the custom earplug topic has been beaten to death and I've done my fair share of searching before posting, however I'm looking for feedback on which custom earplugs are best with my HD-25's? Obviously the HD-25's are "on ear" headphones so comfort may vary when compared to other cans. Appreciate your feedback on this as well as on the 3 earplugs in general.

I've narrowed it down to 3

I have the v moda faders that he is referring to as well as HD 25s. I find the ear plugs nice and they work well with headphones, etc. They feel much better than cheap ear plugs + come in a few different sizes for the right fit with a fairly low cost.

I'd say give them a shot.

Why not reduce the volume for your headphones?

As far as i know/read they say it's not good to put on earplugs when you're dj-ing.
To much pressure for your ears

I've tried mixing with headphones+earplugs.

Big-no-go.
Dind't feel good, for me.

Did you try mixing with earplugs and headphones in the same room as a big PA system?

Obviously he wouldn't be using earplugs at a low volume....sometimes its not an option to turn the volume down.

Custom plugs in combination with headphones will work just fine. I've been using these ones with HD-25's and haven't experienced any discomfort whatsoever.

Definately worth the money.

I'm a mobile DJ that has suffered from ear issues over the years and need to start protecting my ears while playing. My headphones are not always on my ears but I need custom ear plugs that work well when using headphones for mixing.

I'm using cheap earplugs now and while I didn't like it at first I got used to it. My ears are more important than sound quality so it has to be a go for me.
