the cheapo ones (i used to use them at concerts) tend to cut the high end
too much, making things sound muffled.  the ones they make for musicians
just make everything quieter, but still clear.  very nice.  i wear them (ER-20)
at concerts, jams, whatever.  very nice.

a side benefit is that you can adjust the attenuation a bit by moving
them in or out, thus giving you a sort of volume control.
