Peltor Sport Tactical 500 Bluetooth Hearing Protection Ear Muffs, 25 dB Noise Reduction Rating, Electronic Hearing Protection Headphones for Shooting, Hunting, Mowing, Construction, Concerts, & More

I bought these to replace an older model that still worked (after 5 years) but was showing a bit too much wear on the headband. Significant improvement in fit and comfort. All controls are easy to use, even when wearing gloves. Bluetooth lets me listen to music while reducing outside noise. The sensitivity adjustment lets me carry on conversations while automatically suppressing really loud noise. Not suited to use with live music because the suppressor turns on whenever the combined noise pressure gets too high. Makes the music choppy.

Great product. great compression, Bluetooth, Very comfortable ear cups. The headband for fat heads like mine need work, but does definitely fit big heads, yet just a tad on the uncomfortable side. I put a padded headband on from my passive earmuff collection. Very simple to pair up with Bluetooth , and very easy to shuffle through songs with jack cord... answer and reject, and end calls just by pushing the BT logo on earcup. Works great with HY80 ear seals . Of course I put fleece in mine. Great mics pick up voice, when taking calls ...nothing in front of your mouth. (That doesn't bother me though.) Little LED light lets you know what function the earmuffs are in...voice assist is great, and by pressing the BT Logo and power button at the same time, you can cut on or off certain features. I will be testing out the voice aspect at work, and soon will test out the noise compression, shooting my 40 cal and shotguns. Worth every penny...I highly recommend this headset, and I gave it 5 stars, despite the funny feeling headband. Its very easy to change it out to the padded headband for the passives. A small Philips head works great. You gotta get it, and great for shooting and mowing, and work, industrial ...alot applications for this headset. A must have. Picks up background noise. The Alert and ProTac XP don't do that. Only thing besides headband that really needs work.

This review is for Peltor Sport Tactical 500 Smart Electronic Hearing Protector with Bluetooth Wireless Technology, NRR 26 dB. What initially brought me to order this set was the outstanding reviews (both customer and professional), high NRR rating, digital voice listening (for person-to-person communication), and wanting Bluetooth capability for phone/multimedia interactions. I'm going to break this review up into sections. Pros: This set has a high 26 dB NRR rating. This is one of the higher NRR ratings I have seen for headphones. Since they are headphones, you can wear them with earplugs to further increase your ear protection. I have been able to wear these for an hour at a time without any issue. I have not tried them longer than that. These are quite adjustable for a large range of head sizes. The headphones do collapse for better storage, and they come with a nice storage bag. These also feel sturdy and appear to be very well constructed. These fit fine with thin safety glasses. I have not done much with the Bluetooth functionality or the digital voice communication. These have auto power shut off and lower battery warning. Cons: These headphones are a bit on the bulky side. They are definitely not the bulkiest out there, and they aren't obnoxiously bulky. However, there are applications where they could be in the way that you may need thin headphones or earplugs for instead. The headphones are medium in weight. They are definitely not heavy, but if you need to wear these for hours continuously, you might start to notice the weight. The padded cups don't feel very comfortable at first, and they apply a fair amount of pressure. It takes me a bit of positioning to get them into a comfortable position so that they aren't applying pressure to my temples, so that I don't get a headache. Other Thoughts: Overall, these are outstanding headphones for hearing protection. They are feature rich, very adjustable, high NRR rating, and well made. I don't really have much to say about the price, because I find the price to be equal to the quality and feature set. Therefore, I find the value to be good for the price. I ordered the ALPHA1100 rechargeable Li-ion battery pack for these headphones, and I definitely recommend this battery over 2 AA batteries. I do regret not ordering the gel replacement earcups. I have gel replacement earcups for a different set of hearing protection headphones, and they make a big difference. The gel replacement earcups are far more comfortable, provide a better seal, especially with safety glasses on, and they have the potential to offer a slight increase in NRR. This potential NRR increase is possible by achieving a better seal (particularly with glasses on), the material used, and the double hump design (allows two chances to create a complete seal). Update - 10/21/2023 I finally upgraded the stock ear pads on the 3M Peltor Sport Tactical 500 to PROHEAR gel ear pads. It was immediately a significant improvement. The noise reduction was noticeably improved. The gel pads are more comfortable, and they seal much better, especially with glasses on. Each gel pad is about 1mm thicker than the stock pads. I looked at both the gel pads with and without the replacement plastic base. I went with the version without the plastic base, only because they were a bit softer. I'm going to assume it just happened to be a sample variance, and that normally they are both the same. To install I peeled off the original pad, no tools required. I removed the original adhesive residue from the plastic base. Then I did a dry lineup of the new ear pad, removed the adhesive cover, and installed the new pads. I can also say that the digital capabilities for listening with the built-in microphone and speakers is excellent. I am able to hear everything just fine while having hearing protection. It is also very good about muting loud noises but keeping speech audible. I'm also able to hear the digital output (speech/sounds) just fine with earplugs in. This is great, because I can get a very high level of hearing protection, while having very good situational awareness. I would never consider anything other than digital headphones for hearing protection.

As someone who frequents the shooting range on a weekly basis, I can't help but express my absolute satisfaction with these ear protection headphones. Having tried three other models in the past, I can confidently say that this one stands head and shoulders above the rest. Comfort is paramount during my range sessions, and these headphones deliver in spades. Their ergonomic design ensures they sit snugly over my ears without causing any discomfort even during extended wear. The large buttons for volume control are a practical and welcome feature, making adjustments on the fly a breeze. What sets these headphones apart is their versatile functionality. I frequently use the Bluetooth capability to enjoy some music while at the range, which adds an enjoyable dimension to my shooting experience. To enhance comfort even further, I invested in the gel pads, and the difference is remarkable. Admittedly, on scorching hot days, these headphones can make you a bit sweaty, but I consider this a minor inconvenience given the substantial benefits they offer. The most crucial factor, of course, is their ability to dampen sound. In this regard, they outperform any ear protection I've ever used. My hearing is precious, and these headphones do an exceptional job of safeguarding it without compromising my range experience. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly endorse these ear protection headphones for fellow shooting enthusiasts. Their comfort, user-friendly controls, Bluetooth functionality, and sound-dampening capabilities make them a standout choice. While they may get a bit sweaty on hot days, their overall performance and safety benefits more than compensate for this minor drawback. These headphones have truly elevated my range sessions to a new level of enjoyment and safety.

Una compra muy,muy buena Vendedor excelente Gracias por todo

Muy buen producto

Quick delivery also great product good stereo production on Bluetooth great for shooting

I use these in an industrial enviroment. they work way better than other electronic muffs by filtering out useless noise and amplifying voices. i was unsure but after testing several makes of electronic muffs these definitly stand out. phone call quality is excellent, music quality is terrible. but since i wear these for 8 hours a day i will continue to use them over other brands.

まず、購入レビューで、梱包は綺麗にも関わらず開封すると製品の箱が汚損されていたとの書込みがあったので、到着まで不安がありましたが、このたびの商品はとても綺麗な状態でした。 製品の機能については、狩猟にて数回使いましたが、電子機能はとても高性能で着け心地も良いですし、電池を入れますが重量感も気になりません。 あとは耐久性ですが、降雪や極寒の中での使用なので、丁寧な手入れを心掛けたいです。
