Re: [ST] db's and ears (was "Offroad exhaust" tune?)

Good info John, thanks!  And agreed, overcoming the noise level with the 
in-ear monitors sounds like the best solution, but there are more problems 
besides the cost, like hooking up.  I've yet to find a way to interface 
the in-ears with the typical comm setup like Motocomm for example.

I have seen use of high-quality in-ear monitors complete with 
bone-induction mic by the Indycar racing folks.  But since they have EE's 
on staff I'm sure hook-ups are no problem to them.

I was going to try the Koss type of in-ear, similar to the Shure's in size 
and shape but think they might be problematic when putting on the helmet. 
Ofcourse there is still the hookup and mic problem but one step at a time.

Pam had the custom plugs made at an IMS show a few years ago, but found 
one doesn't fit quite right once the helmet is in place.  Some have 
mentioned putting your helmet on when having those made, but the makers 
assured us that it wouldn't be neccessary.  Wrong.

Due to those issues, I'm seeking something like a Laser-lite with a 25db 
reduction.
