I expected more. 26db of noise reduction is significant. 10db is about half the volume in difference. A guy was firing an AR with .556 2 booths away and it was LOUD. Passive protection would have done a better job. I dont know why it came through so loud. I could not adjust it out. Other than that one experience, I like them. My son and I can have a conversation at the range.
I’ve used them once since my purchase. Work as advertised and with the attached blue tooth device, being connected to my phone is easy and effective. Really good deal in that Walker gave me the Bluetooth headset at no cost!
Over all happy. I love how it doesn't block out low level noises so I can talk without yelling. Pretty comfortable. Biggest draw back is u can't hook up to Bluetooth with out the microphone attachment. That's pretty lame. I thought I would be able to hear a bigger difference in decibels btwn this pair and my 22 dB howard leight. But I could tell any diffence. All that being said. I would still choose them over my howard leights
Perfect for working in a plant with loud noises. Only thing is its very difficult to connect the walkie talkie with other walkie talkies that are of a different brand. Trying to get my company to invest but with this issue they won't.
