Sound Gear Electronic Hearing protection

Post by ecomeat »

Has anyone here in Australia ever had any experience with these ?
Len Backus' Long Range hunting website in the US is selling these supposedly very superior hearing protection devices for $469-00, so posted they are about $520-00 from memory.
That is a lot of money for ear plugs if it was a bit of a con, but if they really were anywhere near as good as Len writes them up to be, it would money well spent.
I had a 36 hour bout of tinnitus "like" ringing in the ears and unsteadiness/light-headed ness about two months ago, and it was scarey. Thank God it only lasted less than two days
If these electronic devices were anywhere near as good as is claimed, I would buy a set pronto, but the cynic in me is hoping to find an Australian based reference for them first.
Anyone got any feedback ?
Regards
Tony
Extreme accuracy and precision shooting at long range can be a very addictive pastime.
