Most Helpful Positive Review Comfortable and effective hearing protection
I work in a very loud environment, and much of the noise surrounding me on a daily basis can be quite detrimental to hearing, especially over the course of a decades-long career. However, I also oversee and deal with many people throughout the day, and the pace and demands of my job and necessity fo...

Most Helpful Negative Review Decent secondary protection
Not quite enough protection to use as primary ear protection. Good as backup under muffs. Pros: Solid extra layer of protection Cons: Not enough on their own

For Sensorry Issues

by Treva, from TN, United States Written on February 23, 2022
We bought a pair for our daughter who struggles with sensory overload in crowds. She can safely wear these and not miss out on outings and gatherings. She is able to wear them and most people do not notice.
Pros:
  • None
Cons:
  • The red pin would match better if it was black
Would recommend: No

Great Hearing Protection

by MTBNC, Verified Owner from NC, United States Written on October 27, 2021
I think I have thee sets of these. When I'm shooting a shot gun they let me get my cheek weld low with out interfering like like ear muffs would. I use them in conjunction with ear muffs when shooting pistols. They really help cutting down the percussion if someone is shooting in the lane beside of you.
Pros:
  • GOOD FIT & A GOOD PRICE
Cons:
  • None
Best Used for:
  • Shooting & hunting
Would recommend: Yes

Always work great

by David Skehan, Verified Owner from MA, United States Written on September 3, 2020
Used these in the us army. Works great but keep your ears clean or they are uncomfortable because of wax build up. Clean the insert portions every night they last longer. I bought a military police reserve unit a case of them and they all thanked me when they rotated home
Best Used for:
  • All purpose
  • Shooting & hunting
  • All calibers
Would recommend: Yes

Very handy

by Joseph, from GA, United States Written on July 4, 2019
Small size handy for reducing noise. I wear them in a high noise environment and they work quite well. With the 2 different db levels you can do with or without the cap plugs, it helps talking to other people in a loud area.

EP 3 Sonic Defender

by Willian Saad cavalcante, Verified Owner from FL, United States Written on August 24, 2018
Bought these after they were recommended by a friend and they exceeded expectations. Two things that make these the best earplugs I've used: 1. You can unseal them from your ear canal and they stay in place, allowing you to speak and hear normally during breaks w/o needing to put them in your pocket or on a cord. 2. They fit comfortably under ear muffs for indoor shooting. Surefire's website shows you how to measure your ear to pick a size. The EP4's are for larger ear canals and EP3's are for normal. EP3's work great for me. Pros: comfotable, variable protection
Would recommend: Yes

great service

by WhyRogerwhy, Verified Owner from IN, United States Written on January 14, 2016
I have not had the chance to use them yet, but from previous experience the earpieces preformed as needed. I received my order promptly and they were packed well.
If your order by size they fit well and continue to function longer than I had expected.

Works like they're supposed to.

by Jim, from PA, United States Written on August 26, 2014
The EP3 Sonic Defender is a very unobtrusive earpiece... does the job... can barely feel them. But can sure hear that they're in... or can't hear that they're in. I would consider these for use where loud sound protection is important, but you still want/need to hear lesser sounds. At the range, It takes the loud report of a firearm to a safer level, but I can still carry on a conversation.
Pros:
  • Lightweight and comfortable.
Cons:
  • None
Best Used for:
  • concentration at range
Would recommend: Yes

Surefire Earpieces

by Legacy Reviewer, from WA, United States Written on March 21, 2014
I am big 6 foot 3 person but have small rabbit like ear canels. Hearing protectors hurt my ears after just a few minutes. I tried Surefire small size protectors and have at last found product that fits both my ears and my needs. Highly recommend.
Pros: fit well, comfortable, effective blocking noise

Big improvement over foam plugs

by Legacy Reviewer, Verified Owner Written on February 10, 2014
These plugs are much easier and faster to insert in your ear canal compared to having to twist the old fashioned foam plugs and then cramming them into your ear. These work great in conjunction with my electronic ear muffs. I also find the soft materials used more comfortable than the foam plugs that create an outward pressure.

Surefire recommends that you replace them at least every 6 months, but I haven't had any problems using whatever pair I find in my bag at the time.

Pros: Easy and convenient
Cons: Recommended replacement interval
Would recommend: Yes

OK earpiece

Cannot hear "routine conversation" as easy as they claim, but good durable ear plugs.
