Double-Up Muffs and Plugs for Maximum Sound Protection

For maximum safety and protection, we recommend running good foam plugs under quality electronic muffs. “Doubling up” with plugs AND muffs can reduce total sound energy levels by 5 dB or more. That may not sound like much, but the decibel scale is logarithmic, so just a 3 decibel increase in noise represents double the sound force on your ears. Reducing sound by 5 decibels (by running plugs under muffs) offers very significant extra protection.

Your Editor has tried many different varieties of ear plugs, both the foam variety and the soft plastic flange-type plugs. I now favor the Howard Leight MAX-1 plugs. Rated at NRR 33, these are, quite simply, the best ear-plugs I’ve ever tried. The first thing I noticed about these plugs is how much more effective they were than muffs alone. With just muffs in place, a rifle report is still quite audible. With the red MAX-1 plugs, the noise from a shot is much, much quieter. Proof of the “real world” effectiveness of these plugs came when talking. The plugs work so well that I had trouble hearing words spoken by a colleague from just four feet away. With conventional (non-electronic) muffs I can hear a normal speaking voice from many yards away.
