Music & performance

ER musician earplugs and the DJ Mix Pack lower the volume evenly so the mix still sounds right.

Sleep & everyday

Tru Customs and DefendEar Solid give a comfortable, consistent block for rest, travel, and study.

Swim & water

Solid custom plugs in floatable materials keep water out, ask us about color and material options.

04 / Custom Fit

How a custom fit works

Custom protection starts with your ears, not a size chart.

  1. 1

    Ear check & impressions

    We look in the ear, clear wax if needed, and take precise silicone impressions of each ear canal.

  2. 2

    Choose material, filter & color

    We help you pick the right Westone material, electronic or filter option, and finish for how you’ll use them.

  3. 3

    Westone hand-builds

    Your impressions go to Westone, where technicians build each earpiece by hand to your exact anatomy.

  4. 4

    Fit check & verification

    You come back to confirm comfort and seal, and we adjust until the fit is right.

05 / Care

Keep them working

Wipe after use

Clean the earpieces with a dry or lightly damp cloth after each use, no harsh solvents.

Store dry

Keep them in their case, away from heat and direct sun, which can warp the material over time.

Mind the filters

Filters and electronic parts are wear items. We check and replace them so performance stays consistent.

Refit as needed

Ear canals change over years. If the seal loosens, we can re-impression and remake.

06 / FAQ

Westone questions

How long does a custom fit take?

Impressions take a few minutes in office. The finished earpieces come back from Westone, usually within a couple of weeks, and we do a short fit check when they arrive.

What is the difference between electronic and passive protection?

Electronic DefendEar pieces actively amplify safe ambient sound while compressing loud impulse noise like gunfire. Passive plugs and filters simply reduce or block sound with no electronics.

Which musician filter should I choose?

ER filters come in roughly 9, 15, and 25 dB. Lighter filters suit quieter acoustic settings, stronger filters suit loud stages and clubs. We help you match the filter to your environment.

Can I pick the color?

Yes. Westone offers a wide range of materials, finishes, and colors, including clear, skin tones, glitter, neon, camo, and swirl. Ask us for the full color guide.

Do you fit Westone at both offices?

Yes. We take impressions and fit Westone protection in both Midtown Manhattan and Garden City, Long Island.
