Dimension Series Pro-ears

[Blockhead]

I lucked out and won a certificate towards a set of Dimension Series Pro Ears at the SMM3G Shooter's Banquet. The cert says it's good for one of the following models:

1) DPS-1 Pro-Slim

2) DSC-1 Sporting Clays

3) DPM-1 Pro-Mag

The Pro-Slim look the lightest and smallest. Any suggestions????

I have used the Pro-Slim for 6-7 years, and I like them. If you want more sound reduction, as provided by the Pro-Mag, you can always double plug (foam plugs under your Pro-Slim). I recommend you replace the foam Sealing Rings every other year.

Call Ridgeline directly I spent about a 1/2 hour with them on the phone before they recommended I buy the industral line.

I bought my Pro-slim's back in December and the rep at Ridgeline told me that January of this year they have an upgrade package (Stonger headband and fatter ear cups) for the Pro-Slim's that give you the exact same performance as the Pro-Mags for $40 more. Quite honestly, the Pro-Slim's are great and I don't need anything more. I shoot outdoor IPSC, Single Stack and IDPA as well as shoot at the indoor range for practice with no complaints in noise. Take the Pro-Slims!

I'm thinking of getting the hearing aid style hearing protection. When you go out in the Summer heat with Hat, Hearing Protection and Eye Protection, it gets pretty hot. The only problem is that cost about $800 for the analogs and I heard about $1600 for the digitals.

Thanks for the input. I ordered the Pro-Slim "Plus". While they still sell the original, it was only $20 more for the comfort improvements and an increase in the rating from 21 to 28.
