2020年10月2日 · I have used several brands and types of electronic ear plugs and muffs, all $100 + and NRR of less than 25. Same for molded ear plugs, NRR of less than 29. Finally bought a bucket of Howard Leigh plugs, about $2 each and NRR of 30. Easy insert, comfortable for hours and easy cleanup. Give ‘em atry.

2019年12月30日 · Actually, the disposable ear plugs you have been using provide better noise attenuation than the molded ear plugs you get at competitions. You can get better protection by putting ear muffs over the foam plugs. Or, go to an audiologist. That's the best way to get the best products. But it's also the most expensive choice.

2023年4月7日 · The plugs are great as they have two mechanisms to hold them in place and if I get them jammed into the ear canal deep enough, they will not come out even in sweaty running/gunning for several hours. The raptor is interesting and it does work but only if the transmitter pads have good contact with your cheekbone. .

2022年9月30日 · Try this. Use a good comfortable foam ear plug (those "Quiet please" plugs you get a walmart are just fine, but the softer "3M foam Disposable Earplugs" or "Uline Bell Earplugs" work good too and are more comfortable). and then put a set of the thin profile DRN electronic ear muffs over them, like the "Walkers Razor Series" ear muffs.

2013年4月21日 · I tried the DIY plugs more than once. Big waste of money in my opinion. The problem with them is, you can't get the silicone into your ear canal good enough to make a proper fitting and sealing ear plug. I have a set made my Jerry Bryant(Silent Treatment) and they are the best ones I have had yet.

2014年5月23日 · The Peltor products are great, if you have the tactical in ear plugs make sure you have the tips that fit you best. 3M has a ear fit system that can determine how effective the ear plug is. The ones I thought I liked because they were cool and had a good rating turned out not to work in my left ear. Changing the style increased my protection 10x.

2020年2月20日 · Thanks for the tip! (haha) Seriously though, that was going to be my next question; which tips to use. I don't like silicon plugs and the foam plugs they come with are sort of bulky. I had some shaped foam tips from a set of Beretta Off-Shot earbuds and they fit the Otto earbuds just the same.

2021年11月8日 · Muffs help minimally over ear plugs. Noise is conducted to the ear through the bones of the skull and to a lesser degree the chest cavity. Short of encasing your head in cement...you cannot decrease the dB's by much more than 40 dB. The best you can do is 32 dB reduction silicon foam plugs and a quality set of muffs which may add another 3-5 dB ...

2020年12月10日 · I wear molded plugs plus muffs. Unlike some others the ear muffs do not get in my way, but I wear them slightly high on my ears. Foam plugs have never worked right for me, and they have a nasty habit of pushing wax further into my ear canal.
