[QUOTE="FearNoWind, post: 1060645, member: 50867"] When making your fina decision, consider this. The objective of most ear protection devices is to prevent sounds over 85 db in intensity from reaching the inner ear. A set of noise reduction headphones or ear plugs or earmuffs that offer NRR 25 db protection sounds pretty good but the level of protection is a variable that must be applied with consideration of the sound level you're exposed to. If you're exposed to 130 db and your protection is 25 db then you're exposure is 105 db or 20db over your maximum level. That's not protection .... [/QUOTE]
