Did you put a set of earmuffs over the microphone? 😂

I always double up with ear plugs and ear muffs at indoor ranges. Protect your ears!

I am confused. Some say lower the decibel it is better and some say higher the number it is better. Which is it? And what number is recommended?

The sound quality of this video is really bad..... Ironic

Oh I thought it was my poor hearing...thanks

Very timely! Been using muffs with foamies, but have noticed the effect of the seal around eye pro occasionally. Had been shopping and the input provided here couldn't have come at a better time! Thanks for another quality video!

I wear foam plugs and muffs that cover the whole ear. Harmful volume levels can cause damage from an exposed area behind the ear.

I always double up as well. I'm not ready to trust those electric in ear plugs yet

I didn't hear it said, but the high quality blue/red buds, by the product graphic, are the Pro Fit Series from ProEars. They also make the best electronic amplified over ear protection out there.

Thanks for the Myles of information!

Good overview of hearing protection. I used to just use the basic harbor freight headphone protection and sometimes also use the foam inserts since they were all cheap. Then I got some great deals on some walker headphones with the volume to hear around you and those are fantastic.

Big fan of the 3M Peltor In-Ear hearing protection. They offer a MUCH cheaper option without battery in the case here. Got mine for less than 200€ including the full selection of tips. Goes by the product name „ 3M Peltor EEP-100 EU OR Hunting“ here. I got it on sale but normal price is around 250€ which is almost 1/3 the price quoted in the video.

What brand is your custom hearing protection?

Thank you man. Went shooting with some friends out on their farm and realized real quick I need ear plugs or hearing protection. This video was greatly needed.

Watch out! It's just a matter of time before the ATF starts regulating hearing protection.

Earmuffs are an automatic weapon because I can shoot more

Great job on all the reviews!👍🏽😎👍🏽

Great points, sir.

I like the Surefire Defender inserts. The plastic frame helps keep the insert in the ears with different sizes to choose from There are the baffle or foam styles as well. I will use just that alone when shooting handguns by myself where I don't have to communicate with others, although they are not bad to talk with others. I double up with the Defenders and electronic ear muffs when shooting rifles. I have a small head so I have added foam padding to the arch to raise up where the muffs sit on my ears. That helps to keep the stock from moving the muffs off my ears. B

Good background info. Thanks

Do you have the links for these?

What brand were those custom inserts?? I've been using Etymotic Gunsport Elites ($400) - very curious how the audio boost on those compares to something 10x the price.

i take my hearing protection very serous and am looking into custom even though i double up every time. but standard good brand foam ear plugs often have 30+ NRR about as high as it gets so they do protect your hearing

I have trouble getting foamies to stay in, which makes me hesitant to think about inserts However there's no doubt they would be much more convenient if I was shooting rifles on a regular basis I generally put 50 rounds down range once a week, almost exclusively with handguns, on an outdoor range where I'm the only person shooting So normally muffs are my thing The electronic ones are much better for taking classes though

Good timing as I'm wondering which way to go

Just starting to shop in ear electronics. Not going to be sweaty this summer.

I use electronic ear pro but one thing I do is put a couple of pairs of foamies in all of my AR pistol grips in the event I'm at the range and forgot my primary ear pro OR in the event that I have to use one of those rifles in a self defense/home defense scenario where I wouldn't be able to get my electronic ear pro on, I probably won't be able to get a chance to use the foamies either but MAYBE I will and it's better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it. PLUS another benefit of putting 1-2 pairs of foamies in the storage compartment of my AR pistol grip is that it stops the rattle from the tools I keep in the same grip (I have a tool for almost all of my optics and I keep that tool in the grip compartment of the AR the optic is on). Keeping that tool in there and putting foamies in there has come in handy for me before. I recommend doing this.

i have always done with good foam and high rating basic ear muffs but now i find myself getting older and its hard to hear talking on the range with doubling up hearing pro , so i got electronic ear muffs and will get custom molded non electronic inner ear plugs for max protection

Tinnitus builds character.

Hi! What brand/model eyerpro (need Asian fit) and the custom insert ear pro are you using?

Indoors I wear custom made silicone inserts ( no electronics ) and Sordin Supreme Pros with gel pads . Outside a I just wear the inserts or just the Sordins.

I needed this, I’m looking for ear pro that I can wear all day and hear, but when I shoot a round it automatically kicks in and then I can hear again

What is the model of the latest ear protection in the review? Can I have a link to buy?

I’m mostly deaf in one ear and what I do to protect my good ear is use electronic over ear pro along with basic in ear pro in my good ear when I shoot

3M peltor Tep 200. Best damn ear pro there is. I’ve been through week long classes at over 10 hrs a day and never ran out of juice. They work better than my high end ($300) sound cancelling ear muffs. The only caveat is that they are a bit expensive. You can get the neck loop and connect them to any commas device.

Thanks Myles. These days you can get good electric in ear protection for around $300 which have blue tooth connection, electronic suppression of loud outside noises, electronic enhancement of sounds below a certain level, and comfortable to wear. All kidding about poor audio of the video aside (see comments below), protecting your ears and eyes should be your no. 1 priority.

Custom inserts are NOT expensive like he’s saying. Get passive pass through custom inserts. They are like $250. If through ENT with insurance can come down to like $80. The pass through kind still give amazing protection and let you hear low decibel speaking voices … just you don’t get superhuman hearing that electronic gives. But you save $800.

Hi Myles. Where are the links? Good video. Very informational

My last range trip I left my inserts and had to borrow some headphones from the range. I’ll never do that again caught a ear infection and the entire day sucked because I couldn’t get a good cheek placement at all.

IMHO, SORDIN ear muffs are some of the best. But pricey. Used by many instructors at the Gunsite Academy in AZ.

So why when doing a video about hearing you have the worst sound of any of your videos? Are you trying to show what happens when you get hearing damage? If so .... Bravo!

Is the brand of the blue inserts a secret?

I used 3m peltor combat arms earplugs, no battery, easy, small. Perfect. oh very cheap.

Dang that audio quality on this vid is pretty bad...

What are low verses high decibel ratings? What do you recommend?

What is your opinion on Axil ear buds?

Silicone reusable plugs like surefire sonic

Hmm

Tinnitus is no joke buy the best there is no budget

Maybe you've shot too many times without protection because you didn't realize how painful the video sound is

Muffs and plugs whenever possible, especially when shooting rifles.

Always double up your hearing protection.

The audio is far below your usual quality. If you talk about good decibel ratings, mention what you consider a good rating and what frequency range high, mid or low should be focused on indoors or outdoors. With the foamies, the biggest issue that they're often not correctly inserted.

It's imperative that you can hear whats going on around you.

Tendonitis is elbow pain, Tinnitus is ringing in the ear. They are not pronounced same.........

Long term hearing damage is real.

What's that you say? 😂

I am lucky if a can afford foam inserts. now that is not saying i wouldn't like something better. I just cannot afford it, being a low income poor.

Ironic the video you do on sound also mistakenly was poorly edited for sound

Pretty funny/ironic that the audio is crap on this video...lol

The sound quality on this video is so bad that the topic of ear protection is highly ironic.

Bad sound

you only get 2 ears, protect them with your life. I went cheap and it cost me losing 60% of my hearing in my right ear. Be Warned

I'm sorry, this is terrible advice - look at the lab tests, these "custom hearing protection" are not better than other options.

I think your microphone is bad..

dude most can't afford 700$ headphones likethe ones you use. can u do a video forgood protection at a working mans price?
