properly inserted foam here. I prefer the hearos brand. I don't know how to describe them other than they are shaped like a little ghost.

I tried the silicone ribbed style, but the little stem would always get tweaked by my helmet. it would dislodge the plug and make my ear realy sore.

being a musician I've always tried to protect my hearing, but alas I too have tinnitus and have for many years. don't sweat it man you can maintain the level it is now by properly protecting yourself from here forward. eventualy you'll get used to it and won't even give it a second thought. on the bad nights just turn on a fan or something. it doesn't take much sound to drown it out.
