Elvex Aware Electronic AM/FM Radio and Communications Ear Muffs (NRR 22)

This item has been discontinued. Don't panic! Go back to View All AM/FM Radio Ear Muffs. Elvex Aware™ Electronic AM/FM Radio and Communications Ear Muffs are specifically designed to permit face to face communications in high noise environments. Aware™ Communications Ear Muffs feature two microphones that pick up sounds in the environment. Low level sounds such as voices are amplified and dangerously loud noise is suppressed. The resultant compressed soundscape contains all the sounds present in the environment, but adjusted in volume so they can be safely heard. This soundscape is then delivered to the ear at the volume chosen by the user, up to maximum volume of 82 dB as permitted by the built-in limiter. The resulting output from the Aware™ circuit means face to face communications are simple, even in noisy industrial environments, and because the user can hear, he has no reason to remove his hearing protector as is too often the case with ordinary hearing protectors.

Aware™ goes further, providing the user with a quality built-in AM/FM radio and a stereo input jack for listening to an iPod, two-way radio (listen only), or other music source. Aware™ allows the user a choice of hearing just the music, or the music together with the ambient sound processed into the headset. The radio also can be heard along with the ambient sound so the user can be entertained on the job, and still remain protected and situationally Aware™! UPC# 729294366806
