[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this as a product review. It did not disappoint. Exactly as advertised. It would be money well spent.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Received this item as a free sample from 3M. Used these at an indoor range and they worked great. As long as you follow the instructions, bluetooth setup isnt hard. Really enjoyed these!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product in exchange for an honest review. I was pleasantly surprised with the performance of these hearing protectors. They are quite comfortable and do an excellent job of blocking Out sound.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was sent this product for free to review from 3M. I have always hesitated to purchase electronic hearing protectors because of the off-chance they they would fail and my hearing would be damaged because of it. After using this product, I do not have that worry anymore! This product is very comfortable and works as stated. I also enjoy the fact that I can Bluetooth to my phone and listen to music. It makes for a fun, worry-free day at the range!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Spent time sighting in a rifle this weekend while wearing these hearing protectors. Would definitely recommend this product! Great protection without feeling too bulky.
Bought the Tactical Sport 500 to replace another set of Peltors (Sport 100) that broke in the same spot on the headband that many others have reported, thinking that the more expensive model would have solved this problem. I love the noise reduction, love the comfort, love the ability to communicate clearly with my students while wearing them, and wear them several days a week for much of the day in my profession as a firearms instructor. However, they broke in exactly the same place again! The plastic piece that connects the headband to the ear cup failed and the cup no longer seals. So now they're useless. And I haven't even had them that long. Come on, Peltor, listen to your customers and fix this!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pros: Good sound reduction, clear audio of human voices. Cons: Needs LED on/off indicator so you can verify they are off when not on your head, needs more adjustment for larger heads (too small), couldn't get blue tooth to connect to phone.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this item to try from 3m for my brother, he hunts. The rechargeable feature with the back up battery will be super helpful in the deer stand.
