does they work in the original Kindle
I'm freaked out over how far they seemingly stick out. Is there any danger of having something bump into them and have the plug jam in your ear?
will this fit a five year old?
do they come with the cord to keep them attatched?

Brilliant earplugs
I bought these for going out to drum and bass events and attending festivals. Used them several times now and they’re brilliant! Really take the edge off the noise and definitely help protect your ears especially from heavy bass. Have a handy piece of string which means you can wear them around your neck without losing them. You can still hear people talk, and can 100% still appreciate and love the music, it just helps protect your ears!! I was worried these wouldn’t fit as I have quite small ears but the standard fits like a dream. 10/10 would recommend.

Excellent value, would recommend to anyone serious about loud music and protecting their hearing.
If you're going to be exposing yourself to loud volumes of sound repeatedly and/or over a long period of time, it's essential to protect your hearing. I understand that Etymotic's earplugs are designed with the audiophile, gigging musician and audio professional in mind: they bring down the audible level of sound by about 20 dB in the mid-range, while cleverly rolling off at the less-dangerous low and high ends so as not to dull the sound. They come connected by a handy string, which when worn around your neck helps you not to lose them in the crowd. They are also comfortable to wear for long periods, and allow for conversation with people near you at normal volume.One problem I was worried about before buying was the plastic stem sticking out perpendicular to my ears – would it be possible for a flailing fellow dancer to whack the plug straight into my ear-canal? Thankfully there's no real chance of this; the design tends to protrude at a slight angle, and so far no harm's been done in even the most extreme mosh-pits.I have previously owned ER-20s by Elacin, to which these appear to be identical. However, I'm given to understand that the design is originally Etymotic's. Insomniacs and those with snoring partners should note that the protruding stems make these earplugs unsuitable for wearing to bed. Cheaper foam plugs like Hearos are more suitable.

Easily washable
Great reusable earplugs. Comfortable and block out the sound needed. I work in music venues and nightclubs on a regular basis so these were a perfect cheap solution. Reasonable price, easily washable and the cord that attaches to them is really useful and the right length to tie in a loose knot around my neck when I'm not using them. The attachable cord was the main dicing factor for me when purchasing as I easily loose earplugs.I gave this 4 stars as they could be more comfortable but they are well worth the price I paid.

Enjoy the music at a more comfortable level
I seem to have hearing that overloads quite easily, making it unpleasant and painful to be in noisy clubs or gigs and additionally making it very hard to understand my friends, even if they shout in my ear.With these earplugs I can enjoy the music and talk to friends much more easily. I have developed some tinnitus from earlier exposure to loud noise, and at least I can be confident that I'm not damaging my ears any more than necessary.When friends notice that I'm wearing earplugs they often comment as if I have somehow blocked out everything. It's not like that at all. All the music is there to be enjoyed, just at a lower level. But it's amazing how the ears adjust. If I remove them in a club, after enjoying the music at what I thought was full volume, I am shocked at how loud it actually is in the room.To be fair, I also find other cheaper earplugs to offer similar reduction in volume level. For example I have bought several pairs of cheaper ClearEAR earplugs, but they don't seem to last as long as these. I have had the Etymotic ones since 2012 and they're still going strong.Fit is a very personal thing, but they fit my smallish ears very well. They are not suitable for sleeping though; the hard plastic 'handle' digs in if you sleep on your side. The 3M ones are made of gel which is much better for sleeping.

Possibly enough for the average ear- not mine
I used the larger size (clear) ear plugs for around 5 years. I still always got ringing after clubbing so decided to buy these standard blue (smaller) fit for a visit to Ibiza (I have tinnitus and found it has been getting worse over the years). I found the standard size fitted better in my ear canal.It is extremely important that you push these in far enough or you do not get the protection they offer. Research has shown that applying lubrication helps get a better fit and thus achieve the intended protection. I find licking them before I insert them helps get a better fit. It is also important to note (as it states in the information leaflet provided) that due to the standard deviation, these plugs only offer 16.3dB assumed protection at 4KHz and even less (14.5dB) at 500Hz. The US rating system gives these an NNR rating of only 12 dB. My local club has been found to have music at 110dB and I reckon it would be around that level in other cities. Safe hearing is 85dB for 8 hours, so from these plugs youd be exposed to 110dB less around 15dB protection which only gets you down to 95 dB. I went clubbing 5 nights in Ibiza and the day after I arrived home I found my tinnitus had got significantly worse (8 weeks home and no change). These plugs do reduce the sound but obviously not enough in loud clubs. Id recommend trying Howard Leight Smartfit Earplugs (SNR 30) £2.99 or Moldex 6400 Rockets Ear Plugs £1.82 (SNR 30) here on Amazon & free delivery. This gets you down to 80dB in a 110dB club. For £1.82 its worth trying them and if youve any hearing problems at all, Id say invaluable.You may also want to invest in custom fit plugs - which I will now be doing. Ive researched extensively on the web and the best company would appear to be Advanced Communication Systems (Chris Martin of Coldplay uses them). They do lots of different plugs - ER25's, AC26, AC27 etc with differing levels of protection. They cost in the range of £130- £164.50. Boots are doing ACS 25's just now for £143 (priority club price).I visited an audiologist and he advised me (given Ive some hearing loss and tinnitus) to go for more protection than any of the ACS plugs offer so Ive bought a pair of "ProtectHear" custom plugs from puretone- Hidden Hearing/House of Hearing both distribute for around £99. The spec sheet states they offer around 33 dB at the higher (most risky) frequencies. I found a Health and Safety study (Market surveillance of custom-moulded earplugs, 2009) that tested 6 different plugs to see how close the actual decibel protection achieved came to that claimed in the manufacturers' specifications. Levels of protection for all plugs were lower than indicated by manufacturers. What that tells you is you cant be sure your getting what manufacturers claim in the specs- even though they are tested in labs and certified. The ProtectHear plugs arrived however a verification test by House of Hearing (tests how the plugs attentuate sound whilst in your ears) showed that whilst they delivered around 28dB attentuation above 2K they only delivered 10-15dB attentuation below 1K (well below manufacturers spec). I rejected them and House of Hearing have ordered a pair of ER25's. I'll update on how close they perform to spec when they arrive.I realise most people cant bring themselves to spend much to protect their ears, but if you have ringing after clubbing you can be reasonably sure your ears are being damaged and you can never know who will get hearing loss (likely most people to an extent) or tinnitus (which is really really terrible), until its too late. Ears simply havent evolved to withstand club level noise. My advice is get custom plugs. If you cant afford them use these, but if you think the music still sounds at all loud, distance yourself from the speaker and thereafter try a pair of Howard Leight ones. The ER20's are probably better than most off the shelf makes, but they arent going to offer you enough protection in loud clubs or concerts.Update: The ER25's arrived and House of Hearing carried out a verification test. The plug performed close to the specification however was a few decibels below spec on 3 out of the 6 frequencies. They were below spec mostly on the less damaging lower frequences, however Im looking for at least 25 dB protection so Ive rejected them and ordered a pair of ACS 26's. The spec for the ACS 26's states around 30dB across the frequencies so is a safer plug in loud environments. I'll update here when the verification test for these plugs has been carried out.
