Thanks for all the replies. I'll research all of this when I get the time. But right now I'm wishing someone made an electronic, noise-cancelling earpiece like the Bose noise-cancelling headphones. Better yet why doesn't someone build earcups into a helmet with modern noise-cancelling technology. Who has startup money?

Hey, if you're passing them out I'd like to try a pair too.
+/- 15,000 hours in turboprop aircraft has taken its toll, even while wearing David Clarks with foam earplugs underneath. And the Boeing 737 I fly now doesn't exactly have the quietest cockpit in the world, either.

I cannot tell how many decibels they drop but I use Bilsom earplugs. Rode more than 200 highway miles yesterday and as usual no problem.
I get them at a local hardware store.
