It seems to be great, but it needs a head strap on top to take the weight off

These ear protectors are very HEAVY, and as a result, the head 'spring' has to be tight for them to 'hold on'.
If you're shooting a rifle and take them off after the round, great, but if you're buying these for sporting clays
or for quail hunting, which I was planning on, don't buy them.
Pros:
- They muffle the sound, I would guess
Cons:
- Too heavy for long term use
Would recommend: No

If you are thinking these are pricey, buy once cry once. I bought cheaper Sport Ears first. My wife’s headband broke and one cup died on mine. So these REAALY cost me but worth every penny.
It’s CRYSTAL clear sound. 10/10
Would recommend: Yes

I've been using these for over 5 years now, both on the range and at work. The quality and comfort are substantially better than many other muffs I have tried.
I travel all over the country shooting pistol and 3 gun competitions, and these have never let me down.
The light weight and leather cups, means I can wear them all day at work, and comfort is not compromised.
The super fast attack time is second to none, and has protected my hearing year after year of running heavy machinery, and shooting hundreds of thousands of rounds.
Would recommend: Yes

These work great
I just took these to Front Sight and they worked great.
These are perfect if you wear a full brimmed hat.
The fact that you can adjust the left & right side independently is a great feature.
They are expensive but worth it in my opinion
Thanks
Jeff

I took this product on a south texas goose the product worked great. After two days of shooting I had no problem with the headphones and no problem with my hearing compared to previous trips. I have not used them at the range but am looked forward to giving them a try.

I never thought I would spend this kind of money on hearing protection. I had purchased a highly recommended electronic hearing protection for around $70. The first time I went to use them they literally fell apart. Great when you are first up at a match. I started researching options and everything lead to Pro Ears. I choose this model because lithium batteries are reliable and I have a supply for other devices. I also liked that I could order a set of over the head bands as an option if I did not like the behind the head setup. I finally got to use them this weekend. First they did not fall apart when I tried to put them on. I set the volumes at about the middle and went from there. After awhile I noticed that I was not hearing any of the usual noise I was hearing with other units. The sound was natural and just the shot noise was suppressed. The ear pieces were comfortable, the only issue was the typical sweating within the earmuffs that happens after wearing them for hours. The leather muffs were much more comfortable than the plastic or vinyl ones on other units. We shot several scenarios next to walls and in hallways and there was no discomfort like I have experienced with high end ear plugs.
I would recommend these to anyone. The epiphany was realizing that they worked so well that it sounded like I was not wearing them.
Pros: Works Flawlessly
Cons: Price
Would recommend: Yes

A great set of headphones, however a little tight on the head. My hat size is 7-1/4 which is pretty average and I find the shape of the band to be too "pointy" thereby causing the headphone to put pressure on the crown area of the head. After prolonged use it tends to cause a headache. This is the only reason these headphones didn't get 5/5 stars. I love the headphones other than this. Top notch sound quality, however if I had it to do again, I would go with the behind the head model.
Pros: Excellent Quality
Cons: A little tight on the head
Would recommend: Yes

After buying several other electronic muffs, these have been the best. Nice having independent controls, just remember to turn off both sides. I added a paint dot to visually see that they are turned off. I can wear a full brim hat with them but it rides a little high. No problem with sound recovery or carring on a conversation while someone is shooting. Easy to hear SO and timer during a match. They are expensive but with a lot of shooting, I wanted to keep my hearing.
Pros: Independent controls, great sound reduction & quick recovery
Cons: Tough to wear a hat, needs mark for off position
Would recommend: Yes

Best ear protection and perfect for rifles! It's great to be able to hear voices while you're shooting and still have gun sounds silenced.
Pros: Can continue to hear voices while shooting
Cons: A little on the expensive side
Would recommend: Yes
