This is precisely why you don't want one of the "budget" in-ear 
setups...unless
you can afford to also buy a really fast brick wall limiter to prevent 
hearing
damage from unexpected signals. Unfortunately, by the time you buy this 
vital
piece of kit, you've increased the cost of your "budget" setup way beyond 
the
"budget" category. 

The least expensive in-ear system that I know of which incorportates a 
limiter is
the Shure. I've used it and it sounded ok, but I don't remember it ever 
hitting
the limiter, but I've read that it's effective. I don't want to risk it.
