Post up what you have had good quality luck with.
My walkers failed at 2 years. Want a new pair.

I have a set of iso tunes in ear pods and muffs for tractoring. They are bluetooth, so I listen to music. They seem much nicer/better sound than my walkers.

To me the in ear pods do a much better job of noise cancelling, the muffs are still very good though. 6401342F-02CD-4B9A-A54E-3774B1040EF3.jpeg F3253724-FB82-43D7-803B-C4C7E9829F36.jpeg

I use these walkers

I pull the foam ear plugs off and remove the inner plug from Surefire sonic defenders then slide them on the Walker’s shaft.

Works well and I can Bluetooth music if I wish.

Have a pair of Howard Leight right now that work well. The Radians Pro Amp headphones i had before lasted about 2 years and died.

Most everybody at the gun club had the same Leight's and seem happy with them.

Edit- these:

mic on these can be turned off and on? Work well for large calibers? Some reviews talking about not cancelling well.

Yeah- dial on the side turns them on/off. I wish they had an auto-off feature.

Biggest thing i shoot is .308 Win and they work fine. Never had an issue with the noise of the speed they cut off the bang.

Mine have held up well. As for effectiveness, they attenuate 12ga 3.5" turkey loads to comfortable levels.
My fav story after I got these was shooting at the wma outdoor range up by lula. I could hear everyone talking shit about how loud the brake was on a WASR. It was a helluva noise that came from that thing...first round someone down the lane said "dafuq is that cannon"
RO was a dick about it too
