   These cut out the rifle shots! You can hear and get phone calls with these also! You have to get used to how the controls work but once you do, you’ll find them very easy to use! They also charge up pretty quick too!

   First off arrived well in advance of the time quoted.
   They are really comfortable and block out the noise well. I use them for clay pigeon shoot.

   You can also hear comfortably with them on and can turn it up as well if needed!

   If you play music through them they seem reasonable. Not aa good as maybe a dedicated music headphone but certain more than OK for what they are used for!

   Really happy with my purchase!

   Very fast service from KART IT. Price was lower than anything available locally. I have used these hearing protection ear plugs for years and the little guys seem to last forever. Fully charged, the case will remain charged for several weeks if the ear pieces aren’t used extensively. All of the different sized ear tips are a plus. If a reset is ever required, it’s a quick and easy process. The one thing to watch out for is one falling out of your ear without you realizing it, and losing it. It’s a good idea to use the included lanyard (voice of experience).

   I have different types of hearing protection I use when I go to the gun range but none of them are as portable or convenient as these E-MAX Shadows Pro. They’re my new favorite. Here’s what I like and don’t like about the Shadows Pro: **************************************************** LIKES *They Work!- Obviously the most important thing about something that’s advertised to protect your hearing is that it actually does that. Though I don’t have the measuring equipment to be able to tell you exactly how many decibels these things block, I can verify that they are every bit as effective as other ear plugs I’ve used. One of the most important things is that you have the right size and type of ear tip in. Only the expanding foam/rubbery ones actually protect your ears, the straight rubber ones are just for everyday use. They should be snug. If they aren’t tight in your ear they won’t form a good seal and won’t actually protect your ears. If they feel too loose or you can hear yourself snapping/clapping when they are in your ears, then you probably need to try a different size. Once the proper fit is achieved, these work fantastic at blocking out the loud noises. *Ambient Pass Through Mode- This is my favorite feature of these things. If you double tap the Right Ear button or MFB (multi-function button) these go into ambient pass-through mode where the microphone turns on and picks up the surrounding sound and sends it to the speaker so you can hear what’s going on around you. The sound is a little “tinny” when it does this but it’s an awesome feature for when you need to hear someone talking or listen to your surroundings. The feature works great and is a huge convenience because you don’t have to continually take the ear plugs out and in repeatedly. *Comfortable- Both the rubberized foam protection ear tips and the standard rubber ones are very comfortable. The earbuds stay in my ear snugly without touching the surrounding skin inside my ear. They are very comfortable to wear for long sessions at the range. *Portability- This is probably one of the other features I love the most about these. I have many different types of hearing protection but none of them work as good as these while having a small enough size to slip into my pocket when I’m not using them. The included lanyard also means I can just drape them around my neck when they aren’t in my ears. *Rechargeable Case- I haven’t measured the exact duration but the battery lasts a long time and when it dies they just become regular ear plugs. But the good thing is you can just pop them in the case and recharge them again. I’ve been impressed with the battery life overall. *Great Sound Quality- for something that wasn’t designed to be studio-quality earbuds, these have fantastic sound quality. I’m no expert but they sound every bit as good as some of my higher end headphones. *Multiple Ear Tip Sizes/Types- Caldwell included a bunch of different tips of both the protecting and unprotecting variety to accommodate different size ear canals. I had no trouble finding the one that fit me snugly and there’s both a protecting set and a standard tip for when I just want to use them as ear buds. *Accessories- The included carrying case and lanyard are just a couple of really nice bonuses that make this set even more awesome. Caldwell did a great job with the little details on these. **************************************************** DISLIKES None! I love these things! **************************************************** Overall I’m extremely happy with these E-MAX Shadows Pro Earbuds and I would absolutely recommend them!

   First thing is that if you want be able turn the ambient volume up or down, you need to have it paired to your phone. Not sure why they require you to but that’s the way it is. Noise cancellation, wearing the medium foam tips, it does well enough to limit the sound in a firing range with AR rifles. Ambient works well enough but you will want to turn it to a lower setting while in the range. Sometimes also, if I move my ears a little, the seal would break for a slight moment. Although it wont cause ringing in your ear when that happens, you will notice the seal breaking if a shot is fired near you. They didnt fall out when I was on the range. I tried to double up with these and ear muffs but their size pushed the ear plugs in where it was mostly incomfortable, unless you have oversized ear muffs. Good thing though, if you run out of battery, these can still be used as normal ear plugs. They include different sized foam plugs to try and also rubber plugs for comfort if you are using these for the gym or something, so far the rubber plugs are pretty comfortable
