Comparable to Peltor. If you shoot a lot save your money and buy Sordins.

Mine have worked great for two years, still going strong.  Fantastic quality and performance to price ratio; buy with confidence.

I bought some two years ago to replace an expensive brand I broke.

Highly recommended.

They are made in Switzerland and you know the Swiss make good stuff.

Love mine. Plus I can listen to my iPod at the range, so that's nice.

I have been using for 6 months now. No problems at all. I'm going to buy another pair as backups and for the kids.

Same here, I plug my phone into them with the supplied mini-stereo cable and listen to music while I shoot.

If I get a call, I just turn on speaker phone, and my blackberry pipes the sound into the 'headphones'. I must look crazy sitting there with my ear pro still on, looking like I'm talking to myself.

Was pulling out my wallet to buy some Peltors just now.  Thanks for saving me some money!  Seems like some good/great testimonials from people on here too.

Had one microphone go bad on mine. Factory sent me a new one. After the headband broke on that one, they wouldn't send me another so I had to salvage the headband off the old one. That said, I still use them at the moment until I can get something nicer for use with comms.

I'm considering them.

I've got a bit of hearing loss after abusing my hearing. I decided it was time I bought a nice set of cans to protect my hearing. I was set to spend $150-$200 for a set of electronic muffs. After researching what was available I only found 2 sets that had better protection in that price range. One set had 1db more protection for $100 and one set had 2db more protection for $150. I bought the Howard Leights for $35 and couldn't be happier. They were a little tight on the head and the padding was stiff at first but now that they have broken in they are quite comfortable. They sound great too. The cheap ones I had before were a terrible mono set.

Mine sometimes make a buzzing noise, and I wanted to talk to them about it. How did you get in touch with them? I wasn't able to find any real customer service number on their website.

Good to go.  most times I wear earplugs too so I like the amplification as well as low profile.

Just ordered a pair (and a holster...  and two spare mags).

Thanks for the link!

Only negative is I do get the cell phone interference sometimes. (The clicking noise)

It's rare though.

I just got mine Monday from Amazon, I liked the way they folded (nested) for taking hunting. You also have bionic hearing if you turn them up, they are louder than I thought when shooting but not offensive, overall good purchase.

You have to fill out the contact form on their website before they'll contact you via email or phone. Normally takes them a few days.
