The Alta View Advantage for Musicians and Performers
Expert Audiology Services Tailored to Musicians
When you choose Alta View Audiology for your musicians earplugs and monitors in Sandy, you’re working with specialists who understand both the science of hearing and the unique needs of performers. Dr. Erek Winnett holds a Doctorate of Audiology from the University of Utah and has specialized experience working with musicians and performers. We speak your language – understanding the difference between wanting to block harmful noise versus needing to hear specific frequencies clearly during performances.
Our team stays current with the latest advances in musicians’ hearing protection technology, ensuring you receive state-of-the-art solutions that address the specific challenges you face on stage. Whether you perform at Sandy Amphitheater, local venues, or tour nationally, we understand the varying acoustic environments you encounter and can recommend the appropriate level of protection and monitoring technology to match your needs.
Custom Fitting Process for Perfect Comfort and Sound
Our fitting process for musicians earplugs and in-ear monitors is meticulous and thorough. We begin with a comprehensive hearing evaluation to establish your baseline hearing health and identify any existing concerns. This assessment informs our recommendations and ensures we provide appropriate protection.
Next, we take precise impressions of your ear canals using medical-grade silicone material. These impressions capture the unique contours of your ears, ensuring a perfect fit that remains comfortable even during marathon performances. Unlike generic options, our custom-molded solutions won’t create pressure points or discomfort during extended wear.
For musicians earplugs, we offer multiple filter options that provide different levels of attenuation while maintaining sound fidelity. For in-ear monitors, we discuss your monitoring preferences and performance environment to determine the ideal driver configuration – from single drivers for basic monitoring to multiple balanced armature drivers for enhanced frequency separation and clarity.
Once your custom products are created, we schedule a fitting appointment where we verify proper fit, comfort, and acoustic performance. We then provide detailed instruction on insertion, removal, care, and maintenance to ensure maximum longevity of your investment.
Ongoing Support for Professional Performers
At Alta View Audiology, our relationship with Sandy performers doesn’t end after you receive your custom musicians earplugs or in-ear monitors. We provide ongoing support to ensure your hearing protection continues to perform optimally throughout your musical career.
Your ear canals can naturally change shape over time, which may affect the fit of your custom devices. We recommend annual fit checks to ensure your earplugs or monitors continue to provide an acoustic seal and optimal protection. These appointments also give us an opportunity to clean and inspect your devices, extending their lifespan and maintaining their performance.
For professional performers, we offer expedited service for repairs or replacements – understanding that your livelihood depends on having functional equipment. We also provide regular hearing checkups to monitor your hearing health and detect any changes early, when intervention is most effective.
Many musicians in Sandy appreciate our educational approach, where we provide information about safe sound exposure limits and strategies for minimizing hearing damage in various performance settings.

Common Hearing Tests questions
We understand you may have questions about hearing health, treatment options, and what to expect from your visit. Our team has compiled answers to the most frequently asked questions to help you feel informed and confident about your hearing care journey with Alta View Audiology.
Custom musicians earplugs at Alta View Audiology typically range from $175-$300 depending on the type of filters and options you select. This investment includes the custom ear impressions, professional fitting, and follow-up adjustments. We also offer package deals for musicians who purchase both earplugs and in-ear monitors together.
Unlike regular earplugs that simply block sound, musicians earplugs use special acoustic filters that reduce volume evenly across all frequencies. This preserves the natural sound quality while lowering the overall volume to safe levels. Regular earplugs tend to muffle sound and cut high frequencies disproportionately, which is problematic for musicians who need to hear accurately.
The process typically takes 2-3 weeks from your initial appointment to receiving your finished custom earplugs. We first take ear impressions during your initial visit (about 30 minutes), then send these to the lab for manufacturing. Once we receive your custom earplugs, we'll schedule a fitting appointment to ensure proper fit and function.
Yes, our custom in-ear monitors are designed to be compatible with standard sound systems and personal monitoring systems used at most venues. They come with industry-standard connections that work with wireless transmitters, mixing boards, and personal monitoring devices. We can discuss your specific performance setup to ensure compatibility.
With proper care and maintenance, custom musicians earplugs typically last 3-5 years, while in-ear monitors can last 5-7 years. The silicone material may gradually lose elasticity, especially if exposed to oils, heat, or certain chemicals. Annual checkups at Alta View Audiology are recommended to assess fit and functionality, as your ear canals can also change shape slightly over time.
No, properly fitted musicians earplugs are designed to maintain sound quality while reducing volume. Many musicians report they can actually hear more details in their playing because the reduced volume prevents distortion that occurs when ears are overloaded. Your ability to hear pitch, tone, and dynamics will remain intact, just at a safer volume level.
Absolutely. In fact, it's even more important to protect your remaining hearing if you already have some hearing loss. We'll conduct a comprehensive hearing evaluation first to understand your specific needs, then design custom earplugs that account for your existing hearing profile. In some cases, we can even create specialized earplugs that selectively amplify frequencies you have difficulty hearing.
Custom in-ear monitors provide superior sound isolation (up to 26dB), better sound quality through professional-grade drivers, enhanced comfort for long performances, and a secure fit that won't fall out during active movement on stage. They also offer better durability, customizable sound signatures with multiple driver options, and can be integrated with most professional audio systems.
Yes, Alta View Audiology provides repair services for both custom earplugs and in-ear monitors. Common repairs include replacing filters, repairing cracks, addressing fit issues, and replacing cables or connectors for monitors. If your custom devices are damaged, bring them in for assessment - many repairs can be completed in our Sandy office, while others may need to be sent to the manufacturer.
Clean your earplugs after each use with a mild soap and water solution, avoiding alcohol-based cleaners which can damage the silicone. Dry them thoroughly with a soft cloth and store in the protective case provided. For in-ear monitors, use the cleaning tool provided to remove any earwax from the sound ports. Regular cleaning prevents wax buildup that can affect sound quality and extends the life of your investment.
