    Brand name doesn't matter, they all work.You need to be interested in the audio cut off point, not the name. They should shut off at a level of no higher than 85db or so to protect your hearing. Then there are mono ones, and stereo ones. The stereo ones allow you to still get a sense of direction on what you do hear. mono gives you the same sound in each ear..Other than those two things, it's a matter of how pretty they are like everything else.

    as far as i can figure the electronics inside are a bit unprotected from sweat, i was at a big match once on a hot day, i was loaded and ready, i got a good jolt of electricity in the ear followed by a loud screeching, i suppose a pair of "sweat protectors"{like little covers for each of them} would prevent this, the second pair just started to have delay problems they would not turn themselves back on very fast after a shot

    i also have a pair of the cheapies from Caldwell's, they work fine outdoors, but indoors are a bit ruff

    Here, I bought a set of these and they work fine at the range. Where else can you get a set of electronic hearing protectors for $20.

    Both of the folks I know who have them like the Peltor brand.

    I have a set of Peltors and a set of the "Digital Quads" form Walker.

    I can't tell any difference in performance, but there was a huge difference in price.

    Well if locust forks gives me a good price and ships them over here...
    But maybe i should just get a whole box filled with that really cheap ones.(if they ship them to me)

    Then i can hand them out like gifts to relatives and friends.
    Over here those devices is really expensive....So if i dont tell how cheap i got them....At least around christmas i can expect to get much nicer gifts in return than i usually get...[:D][8D][:I][:p][;)]

    I have a set of Dillon electronic muffs. They work great. I have had them for 5 years and other than batteries (2 AAA per side) and 1 ear pad change I have not had to do anything to them. I also have a pair of Remingtons (not sure who really makes them) that are great for shotgunning but take a bizzare battery that is exspensive to replace. I have heard pretty good reviews of the Caldwell electronics from Midway USA and they only run about $35.00. I have not tried them myself.

    Got same exact ones. Work just as well as any $300 pair.
