Radio Earmuff Deals

I bought these to attend phone meetings. I got tired of all of the junky Bluetooth headsets that drop calls, sound terrible to you, and sound terrible to your listeners.These work very well. The directional microphone pointed at your mouth renders sound clearly without picking up any ambient or wind noise. I have used these while riding a bicycle at 15 mph, an impossible feat with the omnidirectional microphones near your ear on typical Bluetooth headsets. I have also used these early in the morning when birds are active, and the microphone does not pick up these very hard-to-mask sounds, which you often hear on early morning telephone meetings :).The sound quality is very good, though not perfect. There is an occasional crackle of muted static, but never anywhere near the level of distraction. The sound dampening works well, too, and it is possible to talk on the phone at an active indoor gun range with this headset. The only thing that takes a bit of getting used to, is that at the default setting, your own voice sounds a little muted in the headset. This volume is adjustable, but if you turn it up enough to match what you would hear without the headset, it sounds a little tinny. I opted for slightly muted :).Range is excellent, up to 50 feet, without all of the exasperating nodal dropouts every few feet that plague rechargeable earpiece-sized Bluetooth headsets. I have never had the signal drop from putting the phone in my pocket, or turning my body, as so often happens with…

These are great. Took them to the range and shot 9mm, .38 special, .357 They cut the sharpness right out which was great. Afterwards I was able to hear my partner speak withou taking them off. They are very comfortable to wear and easy to store. I'm planning on getting another pair for my son. I would definitly recommend them. I looked at the Pro Ears Gold series and found these to be half the cost. Now a days, I'm watching my cost like others so I can least go to the range some.

This is my second set of the Peltor Tactical Sport Hearing Protectors (PTSHP). Lost my first set on my last trip to the range. Somebody got lucky! These are great hearing protectors. They use one pair of AAA batteries and the first pair was used about 2 hours a month for 2 years before I lost them. I also have the slimmer Peltor "Shotgunner" hearing protectors with on/off knobs on each muff. They work well but frequently get accidently bumped on and kill the batteries. Never had that problem with these. While these work great for me, my wife doesn't like them as well as the slim "Shotgunner" model. She also says these don't suppress the noise as well when wearing eye protection. Probably a leak around the ear cup where the eye protection arm rests over the ear. These come with olive cup heads or bright orange cup heads that are easily changed. The head band fits close enough to my head to allow my hat to fit on top.

Great for the range or hunting, very comfortable you can hear the Deer before you see them. And at the range they are great, very quite and still be able to talk with them on between shoots

Bought the old Peltor yellow, analog (dial) tuning type model when I first saw them hit the market many years back. They were tough and held up well to pretty some rough use over the years. Still work fine too. Yet, trying to find and stay on my favorite station was a royal pain in the rear! I'm talking a major annoyance here. Enjoyed them anyway. Belive me: you do not want the old dial tuner type.This digital model is a major improvement. It stays tuned right where I set it and has a memory function for favorite stations. Also has other improvements as well. The MUSIC SURE HELPS when I'm doing a mundane chore like cutting grass. Helps to keep me motivated and enjoy doing the job more.They are a product of Sweden that is Assembled in the USA. Right good quality too. Paid $64.90 for them with shipping. Well worth the price for me.Sept. 2011: Stay tuned to a station 70 miles away by road- probably 60 plus miles straight line. The reception may waver some as I go around my home and such but it is plenty good for me. Knowing I have the optimal setting with the digital tuner is what makes these so much better than the older model. There is more room for the ears also- deeper foam cups.

Haven't had them long enough to really tell, but amazon wants a review....they are definitely a better quality than all of he others I had to send back from different companies. The padding still feels cheap though. I will amend the review if they don't live up to our expectations.

What I received were not real Peltors. I compared them to my roommate's Swat Tac IIs (purchased from another website), had the same model number, and they felt completely different. The ones I got felt like they had a much cheaper headband, and they came with a microphone. Also, the microphone seemed permanently affixed. My roommate's pair did not come with a microphone, and it appears that the MT15H69FB-08 SV is not supposed to come with a mic. Also, the sticker that had the model number on it was different. It looked like it tried to copy the other one but got certain things wrong (it had 3M on the sticker, whereas the other pair did not). They appeared to turn on and function ok, but I did not use them for more than 2 minutes, as I decided to return them when I realized they were a knock-off.

I tried four other radio earmuffs from Radio Shack, Lowes and other internet connections before I finally found a radio/earmuff that actually works fairly well. If you want to listen to music and any station will do the above earmuffs will work for you. However, if you want to listen to a certain station without various stations drifting in and out, you should try the Howard Leight NRR25 muffs. They performed well in blocking out the external noise (lawn tractor) and stayed on station when I turned my head or made turns while cutting my yard (3 acreas). All the others failed miserably even tho they had nice digital readouts, ear volume adjustments, station mode controls, etc. The NRR25 are plain Jane with a simple tuner that stays on station, off and on switch, FM/AM selector and earmuffs that blockout external noise. That it! What I don't like about the NRR25 is the instruction manual (poor at best), the battery compartment and direction of installing the batteries. You have to use a screwdriver to access the battery compartment. A small butterfly wing screw would have elemented this problem. The direction for correctly installing the batteries is hard to see...a small + and - sign inside the compartment is hard to see. In fact, I sent the first order back for replacement after putting the batteries in several times, several different ways and it still didn't work. It would be so easy and cheap to cast in the proper battery placement. The tuner knob, FM/AM switch, and on/off…

I'm a competition shooter and as such need to be able to understand range commands while also protecting my hearing. I intended this to be my main use for this item. There are some pro's and con's to this system. One such pro is its compact size, reduced at the top of the ear piece for use under a helmet if needed. One con that come to mind is the low amount of insulation inside the ear cup. There is this little flimsy piece of foam that can be replaced with thicker pads from, in my case another set of ear pro. While it is a great system, the compact version does not have the higher sound amplifying capability as the larger round type of the same brand. As another pro I must mention the low weight. You can have these on for hours and only realize it if your sweating hard. One con to this "behind the head" type is that is will be pushed off your ears in the prone position, which sucks. If used in a constant wearing situation such as combat or training its also going to limit your ability to look up for the same reason. This can be fixed by just wearing these upside down, sounds silly but is the only option in these situations. The on/off knobs are easily bumped and turned on inside a ruck sack or whatever and you will find them on when you thought they were off. Not sure what model has gel inserts in the pad portion of the cups but it's not this one and it sure would be nice to have for extended use. All that said and I would buy this item again. Its ability to amplify…

If u like listening to the local radio and protecting ur hear. This is a great product for the job.

I have a severe problem with both AM and FM stations fading out. The dial also drifts. The set is comfortable and does an excellent job of blocking out unwanted noises.

I got this for my husband and had to return it because the radio reception was so poor on a major station. Disappointing!
