James, we are big on safety and hearing protection is important. Ear plugs of foam or silicone work well, but they can be uncomfortable. I have an old pair of "Sounds of Silence" headphones that I use when not in the mood to stuff my ears. Perhaps one of the nicer versions of hearing protection is the plastic band with short silicone inserts on the ends. You will see Rick using them in later episodes of The Router Workshop. Whatever is most comfortable for you is the way to go.
Thanks for the review of the Peltor ear muffs. I am sure other members will chime in and tell us their prefered method of hearing protection. This helps remind everyone to work safe.
