I practice in a small booth, with enough padding, so very dry. Sometimes i use background tracks, metronome,..thru an speaker.
Lately i am having ringing or cracking noise in my right ear when i play higher notes on alto, just A2 and up, in a certain volume. Since i woke up last monday
with dizziness and ready tired after practicing a lot for three days i knew i had to protect my ears. I am now using over the ear headphones which gives an almost
underwater impression of the sound of the sax.
So i plan to buy custom molded earphones but not sure what would be the best filter for my needs, usually practice in the booth and occasionally a rehearsal or concert.
I am inclined toward the ER9, but maybe ER15 would be a safer and practical option for everything and still hearing good quality sound.
Could someone give me some hints?
Thanks.
