Superior in sound quality than the 3M's and so far, have proved reliable. I also use them for work particularly with impact noise. Large 450MW generator circuit breakers tend to be very noisy when they close! Conveniently, they are tax deductible for that reason.
Hearing is precious and I've already got some damage (as my good wife will attest..) so don't scrimp on hearing protection. I use my Etymotics in conjunction with Pro Ears Gold earmuffs which seems to work well without compromising the ability to hear range commands etc.
How much are they mate? I might get a set for "work" too
