Howard Leight Impact Sport Hear-Through Amplification Over-The-Head Electronic Shooting Earmuff, Black, SNR 24 dB, Audio Input Jack, 1034490 (1 Piece)

wow really comfortable I had seen a review on here how tight they were so I'm not sure what's going on there but they're absolutely spot-on. I do wear glasses and they fit comfortably within the glasses or I can put the glasses a little bit over the top which it's fine absolutely spot-on the clarity is just amazing turning the volume up and down and it's so simple and there is an option for the Jack for your iPhone which I think is really good because it keeps this product very simple without going through technical buttons and data et cetera to get what you want at the end of the day it blocks out the noise but it gives you local noise if you want it I genuinely would recommend this product because it really folds down just spot on in the bag very happy with this definitely get one.

I've been using these earmuffs for about 6 months at the shooting range and they work splendidly for their rather low price. Two AAA batteries will power these earmuffs for many outings at the range (but carry spare batteries with you just in case). Replacing batteries is extremely easy. The sound isn't spectacular (don't expect Hi-Fi sound from these), but the sound amplification when you turn the volume up is amazing: I can hear bees and flies buzzing the nearby fields as if they were right at my ear. Loud noise detection (and muffling) could be better/faster, but they manage to do the trick and muffle shots relatively well, although I tend to lower the volume all the way down when at a very busy range (or at a target competition). They are very light to wear and comfortable even for several hours, although the rubber pads that don't absorb any moisture do cause some extra sweating in the summer. I would recommend wiping them with baby wipes after each (sweaty) use, as the rubber pads will stick together when you fold them and leave them a couple days. They aren't ideal for people with smaller heads (my wife has a couple centimeters of room between the top of her head and the headband). For me they are a perfect fit. They fold neatly into a very compact package, leaving more room in your range bag for other gear. Highly recommended (considering the price you can get them for - under 40 GBP). Obviously, more expensive active earmuffs will be better, but at this price range, Impact Sport are unbeatable - definitely the best bang for the buck.

I have used Peltor slim passive ear defenders for clay shooting for many years but decided to try an electronic set. These make it easier to hear one's fellow competitors speaking but also to hear the scorer calling a kill or a miss. The Impact Sport headset is slim, light and just as comfortable to wear as my old passive set. Ordinary noises such as speech or birdsong are transmitted clearly but the sound of gunfire is muffled at least as effectively as my old ones. The volume control is easy to use and I cannot think why one would want individual control for each ear unless perhaps one's hearing had already been damaged in one ear. There is some white noise when the volume control is turned up very high but as I found the ideal setting was about one third of the maximum, this is not likely to be a problem. The order was delivered within two days of ordering. At £61.99 post free these are very competitively priced and very effective.

Nice product, I added the gel ear cups for the off as tend to wear ear defenders for 6 to 8hrs, and they’re very comfortable and cut range noise and boost ambient sounds well. Why 4 stars? I had some Peltors before these, and they beeped when you turned them on, didn’t pick up the wind so much and responded instantly to the volume control. These take a second to respond to the volume controls and don’t beep when you switch them on, so I have a brief moment before I know they’re on, and I also often overshoot the volume I want - not a big deal and I’m sure I’ll get used to it. They do really boost ambient sounds though and cut loud noises, so would be great for wearing in a wood, as long as it wasn’t too windy. For the money, I’d buy them again.

I have always used hearing protection for shooting but used ear plugs in the past as they did not interfere with gun mounting. Noticed the plugs were not as good as I thought after firing a lot of cartridges one day and decided to invest in these. These are great. Once you adjust them on your head so that you don't hit them with the stock when mounting the gun they work very well. Now I won't shoot without them. They take away the percussion noise that damages your hearing and at the same time not only allow you to hear normally but can amplify the noises in your surroundings dependant on the setting. This ensures safety as your normal perception of your surroundings is not comprimised and also allows you to detcect approaching quarry easily. They take standard AAA batteries so no searching for obscure expensive batteries not that I have had to change the batteries that came with them despite extended use. Depending on whether the weather is hot or cold the fact that they keep your ears warm is a plus or a minus. I use them most in the winter so that is not a problem. Overall a great piece of kit.

I purchased these electronic ear-muffs for target shooting. I am very new to the sport and I wanted to make certain I will be able to listen to the instructor's advice and any safety instructions without having to take the ear-muffs off (thus risking having my ears unprotected when someone else would fire). I have used it once so far and it works very well. I am able to amplify my surrounding sounds and at the same time, block any loud sounds (such as gunfire). The ear-muffs seat comfortably on my head and ears and the fact that you can control them using one button only makes them very user friendly. I would recommend this product to people that are interested in blocking loud souns but still maintain an excellent awareness of their surrounding environment.

Although I have not used these in the field, I have tried them using my stereo and they reduce ambient noise and then amplify sound effectively using the integral roller adjuster. They are adjustable and comfortable to wear and are a slimmer in design than others that I looked at. I sometimes shoot in a cap and at other times wear a trilby and experiments show that the headphones fit over the cap and under the trilby nicely, so meet that requirement. My shooting glasses arms fit under the headphones comfortably and are held in place firmly by them. All in all I think these are just what I wanted and hope that they perform as well in the field as they do in my lounge, if not I will come back and modify this review. Having shot with these headphones I can now add that I am very pleased, conversation is easy with them on but the sound of the shot much reduced - ideal. They need to be set at the right level or you will get a little feedback, but no more than I would expect.

These are fantastic very happy after having a bad experience with a pair of 3M Peltor Tactical 6S. Prior to purchasing the Howard Leights I purchased a pair of 3M Peltor Tactical 6S, I was Severely disappointed! They were incredibly hard to change the batteries, took 4xAAA, had two on off switches and volume controls and had faulty speakers!! I'm not even sure if Peltor even has a QA department as they were clearly faulty, if anyone had actually bothered to test them they would have known AND they were almost £30 more than the Howard Leights! for that premium price and the well known brand I expected a higher quality, how wrong I was. Compared the the Peltor Tacical 6s The Impact Sport by Howard Leight are fantastic! they are more comfortable, feel sturdier only take 2xAAA are very easy to change the batteries only have one power/volume dial and have very clear sound you can even hear people talking in the distance you couldn't hear with your own hearing. Overall if your into shooting and are on a budget you will not be disappointed with the Howard Leights! Also if they are good enough for Eric from Moss Pawn & Gun and IV8888 YouTube channel they are good enough for me.

Ich war es leid, dass mein Mann und ich uns beim Holzmachen oder meine Schießkollegen und ich uns anschreien :-P Bei dem hier beschriebenen Produkt bin ich hellhörig geworden aus folgenden Gründen: 1. Der Gehörschutz ist leicht und absolut schlank. 2. Die Stereomikrophone sind sehr vorteilhaft, wodurch der Gehörschutz auch für die Jagd sehr gut geeignet ist. 3. Der Gehörschutz lässt sich winzig klein zusammenfalten und nimmt kaum Platz weg. 4. Bei Bedarf kann mit einem AUXin Musik gehört werden (für mich weniger wichtig, aber für Technikfreaks ggf. erwähnenswert). 5. erfahrungsgemäß lange Laufzeit - auch ohne automatische Ausschaltung (ich betreibe sie mit entsprechenden Akkus und vergesse auch gern mal sie auszuschalten) 6. Robustes Design (auch im Vergleich zu hochpreisigen Modellen) Was mir (u.a. nach einiger Zeit der Nutzung) auffällt ist folgendes: 1. Ohne Kopfbedeckung passt der Gehörschutz schlechter auf meinen kleinen Frauenkopf, da sich das Tragesystem nicht klein genug einstellen lässt. Ich habe daher ein zusätzliches Polster angefertigt und am Kopfteil befestigt, welches die Distanz überbrückt. 2. Aus dem schlechteren Sitz resultierten (bei mir persönlich ohne Kopfbedeckung!) schlechtere Geräuschdämpfende Eigenschaften sowie schlechter hörbare Geräusche, welche vom Gehörschutz verstärkt und an mein Ohr weitergegeben werden. 3. Die Mikrophone sind von einem Schaumstoff verhüllt, welcher eventuell anfällig für Staub und Feuchtigkeit ist. Bei leichtem Regen und anfallendem Holzstaub passiert dem Gehörschutz nach meiner Erfahrung jedoch nichts! 4. Handys können (erfahrungsgemäß bei mir nur bei leise eingestellter Geräuschverstärkung) Störgeräusche/Rückkopplungen verursachen. 5. Andersfarbene Kappen (z.B. Orange) wären ganz nett. Weswegen ich mich für diese Version entschieden habe hat folgende Gründe: Sie ist wirklich um einiges flacher als alle vergleichbaren Produkte, die ich in Händen hielt (Peltor, Bilsom, Sordin> wobei diese auch in der engen Auswahl waren). Doch auch Sordin hat einen Schaumstoff vor dem Mikrophon und da dachte ich: "Naja, nehme ich erst einmal die günstigeren und schaue, wie lange sie bei Wind und Wetter und all meinen Vorhaben aushalten. Wenn sie kaputt sind, trauere ich "nur" um 50 statt um 250 Euro". Für meine Bedürfnisse ist der Gehörschutz perfekt und hat sich als unverzichtbarer Ausrüstungsgegenstand herauskristallisiert. Wenn meine Howard das zeitliche segnen und in den Elektroartikel-Himmel aufsteigen, ersetze ich sie nach aktuellem Kenntnisstand sofort durch das selbe Modell bzw. ggf. die nächste Generation!

Slimmade, snygga, bra ljud och sitter skönt över öronen. Helnöjd!

Even though I still double up on ear pro these have been pretty great and have changed my range experience since I can hear well and still have noise cancelation. Fits really well but someone recommended I get the gel pads instead of the original which I did right away so I can’t comment on the comfort of the original pads but with the gel pads it is super comfortable.

I was looking for a good electronic affordable ear protection head muffs and one of my friend recommended these. I must say wow! they are just great. - Fit: Initially right out of the box, when I tried to wear them, they felt a bit off to me. Then after some adjustment I felt that they fit me good and decided to take them to the range the next day. I was wearing my ear plugs and the howard Leight on top of it. They are very comfortable and does not create any pressure points which causes pain after wearing it for a long time. - Sound cancellation: They cancel out loud frequencies pretty well. I have to keep the volume control maxed out to hear the conversations because I also wear ear plugs inside my head muffs. That's not a big deal, once I turn these on, I can hear people whispering, I can hear actions clicking :). Its a fun experience when the loud frequencies are cut out and you can still hear range commands and people talking around you very clearly. I love it. - Compactness They are very compact once folded in but I don't do it anymore coz this changes the adjustment of the ear cups that you have done initially. I don't have any issues with space so I just don't fold it. - Music Well I have tried this, I have tried listening to music by connecting my iphone to the jack while I am shooting. It works pretty well but it just gives me an odd feeling :). I want to be attentive of my surroundings when I am shooting rather than listening to music and just being careless.. - price The price is just right and you get much more quality for the price you pay. Its good bang for the buck. - Rifle cheek wield I guess most of us have the concern whether the rifle cheek wield would be good with any ear muffs? Well in case of Howard Leight its not an issue. This is because of their ear cup shape. The bottom part of the cup is thinner as compared to the top part. The bottom part of the cup is shaved off to create this space that helps you wield your rifle butt better to the cheek. I shot around 250 rounds wearing these for over a period of 3+ hours and they were perfect for me. no issues. I highly recommend this to anyone who is looking to get into electronic noise cancellation ear protection. Thanks.
