I recently had custom earphones made for my ears. They squirted some stuff in my ears, let it cure, pulled it out and sent it to a lab, and then three weeks later I had earphones. They can be wired or wireless, and depending on what you order are tuned to emphasize some frequencies and block others. Examples would be live musicians, newscasters, or using for firing guns. The one I chose was for motorcycling, and works to block road and bike noise. Supposedly around 22 dB of isolation, so not nearly as good as a set of 30 dB disposable foam plugs. I chose wired, and plug them into my Cardo. They sit perfectly flush in my ear, the cables point straight down, no issues with dislodging them while putting a helmet on.
Mine cost $80 for making the mould, and another $180 for the earphones, if anyone is thinking this might be a good idea or if it's worth it. PS - it is!
