poorpeet Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Get on to eBay and buy some of the diy two part putty to mould your own plugs. They work well and for a tenner or so it's worth it to see how you get on with plugs. CENS are great but kin expensive! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshwarrior Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Do the cens in ear jobbies have sonic valves ? No it's micro speaker Microphone set up like hearing aides but with a suppression modula as well as ampliphcation I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gozzy Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 There the ones I'm thinking of , do they have the valves that snap shut when gun goes off ? Can't justify the in ear amplified type. Have the can ear defenders with amplifacstion type that knock on stocks that are great but too hot in summer. £500 way too much to justify Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmyb79 Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 CENS do a variety starting at £100 for the passive modules. These have no electronics and as far I'm aware don't have a valve in either. The main benefit to them is that if you're looking to upgrade later you only need to buy the electronic modules as the moulds will accommodate either.

Conversation is muted somewhat though after a few minutes of talking and listening with them in you get used to the lower volume, but gunfire sound reduction is excellent.

David 686 Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 Peltors are the only way to go. Electric ones. I've use these for a few years now sometimes 4 times a week for 6 hours a day. Good battery life as well. Top ear defenders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
