Agreed, 100%. Etymotic plugs are fantastic for concerts, because they're not cutting out the treble and mid while leaving the bass largely untouched. And that's the real problem with most earplugs; they do really well with higher frequency sound, and poorly with lower frequency sound.

Been rocking a set of ER-20xs for years now and I’d not see live music without them. It’s like having your own personal volume knob. I can put them in and get right near the speakers without blowing my ears out, or hang out by the sound guy with them only partially inserted.
