LOUD music... is it worth it?

[evident]

sometimes at work i need to go to some building which is a huge server room that is DRONING loud and i didn't even think about wearing earplugs until 6 months ago. i used to walk out of that place w/m y ears ringing. this thread is a good PSA to people who value their hearing

I got a pair of those, they're are good, but kind of expensive though. if you have a small ears canal, you need to get the blue version instead of the clear version.

My ears are permanently damaged from concerts and loud music as a teenager/20 something. I can tell you from experience, damaged ears/hearing sucks.
