Musician Earplugs (Inverted Filters)?

I'm about to order my musician earplugs de ER-15, I already take the ear impressions and make the earmold.

I used the search option but didn't find anything.

I remmeber I read something about having them with Inverted Filters?

or was it not the inverted filters?

someone recommend that over here, is that really necessary?

I want to be sure before I order them.

what are you using them for? i have 20 db's and i think i could use a bit more protection in loud clubs. a lot of ppl go for the 25s...

32db is a lot and honestly could render yourself "useless" as a dj.

I used to use some 32db rated earplugs when vjing on stage with some djs and I had to stop using them cause I really couldn't hear much of anything.

20 or so is what you want, and then lower the monitors.

Well I'mnot aksing about the db reduction of the filters

it's the shape of the filters or the earplugs, that some are inverted and some are not.

About the Db Reduction I think I'm going for the -15 Db
