The Peltor 6S was a good value, I thought, & on sale. Unfortunately, these have a buzz in the high frequency to my ears. I have a small recording studio and I can distinguish extended high frequency and what it does to my ears. These appear to have no attenuation of the above 18k range. I thought of just installing a capacitor to try and cut it down but decided to return instead to go with some Pro Ears. I have used the Howard Leight Impact Sport models and found them to be superior to the Peltor 6s. I would recommend Howard Leight in this price range instead. They have 22db noise reduction, easier battery replacement, less HF buzz, were more comfortable to me for 8 hours, handled the sound reduction in a less abrupt fashion, have a plug for accessory input, have auto shut off, fold up more easily, and are cheaper. So . . . . that's why I returned my Peltors for Pro Ears while buying a set of the Howard Leight for a present for my adult son.
Pros: Compact, low price
Cons: High Frequency Buzz, only 20 db NR, Battery Changes
