flack jacket Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Morning Shooters. A friend of mine got back from SHOT and shared some new electronic ears he picked up. I've been shopping around and technology is amazing and not cheap. A few of the guys at the range have used; ESP Sport Ear Any feed back or suggestions on electronic ears? I'm eyeing these: http://www.etymotic.com/hp/gsp15.html http://www.soundgearhearing.com/products/hearing-protection-for-hunters-shooters Price Ranges: $400-$600 Thanks!

anthem Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 The gunsport Gsp15 from etymotic will disappoint you greatly. Bought those and returned them right away. If you want in-ear electronic seriously consider brad at hear- pro ( I believe a sponsor here). Better than double plugging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compression/clipping not good? Fit? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compression/clipping not good? Fit? Thanks! Not much to elaborate. They plain suck. .. They are not as good as just the plain pro-ears gold. In a range type of setting, the attempt to cut-off is atrocious. It just doesn't have the ability to cut off loud noises at a decent level. So while it tries to cut the loud shots off - it sounds like large distorted splats(audio clipping) that its trying to muffle out, which it fails to do adequately. . You are better off with over ear muffs than the gsp15's. i can't say enough bad things about them - seriously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waterfowl-widowmaker Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Consider a custom molded pair. They can embed to electronic amplifier in it. For a nominal fee of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
