Violin for Sale by William Townsend

Amazon sells a package that contains two sets of plugs--one small and one large. Both fit me well. The large seems to block out more sound, but maybe that's just the geometry of my ear. Phonak Serenity Music Choice (Universal Fit) Still my favorite, but they are expensive and can be hard to find outside of audiologists.
