Thread: Starky SoundGear Hearing Protection

Hi I have a pair of these. My experience has been mixed. I wouldn’t use them at the range where you don’t know who’s going to be shooting what. They don’t seem to me to be as effective as ordinary plugs or muffs. But it’s very hard to tell. I had a difficult time with the audiologist who fitted them - I didn’t feel confident in her level of experience with the device and given it’s $1000 investment stress levels were high. They are however very comfortable and enhance sound quite naturally so stalking the bush with a suppressed rifle they’re quite good. You get more protection than just the suppressor and you hear a lot. I wouldn’t trust them with an unsuppressed rifle.
