 "Sounds" Great May 24, 2010
Louis A. Cintron Jr.
I was scared to buy into product because I had not had a chance to 'listen' and/or try them on for size. When I got them.....fell in love with them. Great product for the price! Changing battery was a bit scary but YouTube helped (NOT MY VID BUT IT HELPED): [...]
Great for gun range, not so great for noisy environments April 28, 2010

I found that these were really useful when used in a quiet environment with loud sounds that come periodically, like a gun range. When worn with ear plugs, they amplify speech so you can hear conversations in between shots or bangs.
However, when used in an area with high ambient noise (engine room, construction site), they function about the same as regular earmuffs because the amplified audio cannot be heard over the ambient noise.
Pros: Works well for the range
Cons: Doesn't work well for areas with high levels of ambient noise
Overall: 3/5 stars
I recommend using rechargeable batteries.
 Peltor 97044 Tactical 6S March 31, 2010
Tedfs (MI USA)
I took this headset to a handgun class on 3/27/2010 and a Rifle class on 3/28/2010.
3/27 was cold but sunny and the headset ran fine all day.
3/28 was over cast all day and rained the whole 8 hours of the class.
The Peltor 6S held up very well in the rain and cold both days with zero issues.
While I normally use earplugs and a heaset, a head cold was preventing me from hearing
normal voice levels with plugs and the headset.
I switched to just the headset and could hear normal voice levels just fine while still
maintaining hearing protection with the 6S noise reduction.
works great March 3, 2010
Travis Smith
I bought these for a shooting school I attended, and they worked great. The inner part of the earpiece is a little on the flimsy side, so be careful when you're popping them out to swap the batteries. Other than that - they performed fantastically.
