Because the Honeywell and Howard Leight earmuffs are a bit on the small side for my head, the seal breaks easier (letting noise in) when I completely turn my head to the side. They also filter out background noise so that your voice sounds clear to the person on the other end. All of them also included the required usage example and supplemental attenuation data by frequency (ANSI S3. With most music and audiobook sources, I found the volume perfectly adequate even under loud conditions (up to about 98 decibels).

Update: In the meantime, I have also gotten 3M’s gel replacement ear cushions for the Worktunes Connect. Audio assistant provides status updates, so there is no need to remove the hearing protection in hazardous areas. Note: I am not suggesting that you should try to listen at unsafe sound levels, but merely compensate for recordings that are clearly too quiet. They work well for podcasts and audiobooks, but in terms of sound quality, I much prefer both Worktunes earmuffs. Battery life: I got about 50 hours of Bluetooth listening (three disposable AAA alkaline batteries).

If you prioritize comfort over everything else, the Walker’s Silencer BT earbuds are perfect for you.Although your Bluetooth HPD’s primary function is to protect your hearing, it doesn’t mean you should compromise on sound quality. I purchased all Bluetooth earmuffs reviewed here at standard retailers and put them through some good testing. The 3M WorkTunes Connect + AM/FM Hearing Protector effectively blocks external noise with an NRR of 24dB.
