Trophy Ear Ear Pro..

[TK66]

 I was searching around BE looking for some feedback on Trophy Ear ear protection but couldn't find anything.  I saw their ad in USPSA mag and looked into them.  I was a little weary about spending that kind of coin on a product that I couldn't find many reviews about.  I got ahold of them and decided to get a pair of the Flexx Pro model.  I've tried quite a few other ear pro..  Electronic muffs, foamy plugs, 3M Peltor in ear yada yada.. Could never find the prefect fit.

 

 I have to say that the customer service was great from the first contact!  I was sent the kit to make the impressions of my ears. Shortly after I sent them back, I received the finished product.  Honestly, I was blown away! From the moment I put them in my ear until I took them out after a 8 stage match. The fit and sound is perfect!  As if I wasn't wearing any ear pro at all. I never noticed loud shots, could hear as normal but nothing was loud.

 

I'm not sponsored or compensated whatsoever. I just want to let someone else know about my experience with Trophy Ear that might be in the same position I was in.

 

Hope someone finds this helpful,

Thanks for the info. I'm where you were. I've tried tons of ear pro, but would like something better. By far my favorite has been sardins.  But after really long matches they can get annoying.  I also don't like over the ear ear pro for shotgunning or rifles. I've been considering a pair of custom hearing aids, but the cost has kept me from jumping on it.

 

Are they pretty much ready to go out of the box? No special customization or adjustments need to be made?  How well do they cut the shot sound compared to electronics you've used?  How do they do against an open gun?  One of my biggest complaints about all electric ears is if you're having a conversation and someone starts shooting the conversation has to stop because the ears keep cutting out. Does the same thing happen with this style?

Do these have an on/off switch or do you remove the battery to turn them off? Most of the in the ear electronic devices seem not to have an on/off switch. The only ones I think have a power switch are the ones made by Pro Ears.

These do turn off. Line the two dots up (turn all the way down) and they’re off. Take a small battery that’s supposed to be good for 96 hrs?

rddvet, they are ready to go out of the box.  Just put in a battery.  They have several different mode setting along with the volume adjustment. I’m still trying to find the perfect setting. Around open guns I was using mode 2 but all other times just mode 1. It’s very easy to change between modes. 
 What I like best besides the perfect fit is the quality of the sound. Your hearing is the same when wearing these. Peoples voices sound the same. Today was my second time wearing these at a match and I’m still 100% happy with my purchase!

That is great to know; a big plus for me.

I was looking at SoundGear Phantom rechargeable product, but haven’t been able to get any real user feedback. It seems these work for our sport. I would be interested to know how they work in an indoor range; seems they should do well.

We start shooting indoor matches next month.  I’ll give some feedback when we do.
