At the same time, they allow users to hear speech and localize noise origin. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This gives users a safer experience, especially in loud military environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The XCOR Pro includes Bluetooth connectivity, while the XCOR does not, as some military and law enforcement units don\u2019t allow connectivity due to security concerns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2000\" height=\"2000\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/MX-ELECTRONIC_3.png.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-109213\" srcset=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/MX-ELECTRONIC_3.png.png 2000w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/MX-ELECTRONIC_3.png.png?resize=150,150 150w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/MX-ELECTRONIC_3.png.png?resize=300,300 300w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/MX-ELECTRONIC_3.png.png?resize=768,768 768w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/MX-ELECTRONIC_3.png.png?resize=1024,1024 1024w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/MX-ELECTRONIC_3.png.png?resize=1536,1536 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Axil released its MX electronic earmuffs in April. (Axil)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both models have an industry-leading single number rating, or SNR, of 29, Smith said. SNR is the average noise production provided by hearing protection across a range of frequencies. The higher the number, the greater the protection. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, a 29 SNR means that a 100-decibel sound will be reduced to an estimated 71 decibels at the ear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The XCOR and XCOR Pro can run up to 12 hours on a single battery charge and their charging cases allow for two additional charges, pushing their use up to 36 hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Axil\u2019s recently released <a href=\"https:\/\/goaxil.com\/products\/x30i-earplugs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"\" title=\"https:\/\/goaxil.com\/products\/x30i-earplugs\">X30i earplugs<\/a> don\u2019t feature electronics. Its open-and-close mechanism allows users to toggle protection on or off to better hear lower-level sounds. But in case the user forgets to toggle back to protected mode, a mechanical device will shut off sound that meets the 85-decibel threshold. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe have [a] proprietary mesh filter behind [the] sound tube that decreases impact noises,\u201d Smith said. \u201cThe earplug will also mechanically swell to reduce frequency threats.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The earplugs cost $39. They can be cleaned with dish soap and water for low-maintenance needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Axil\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/goaxil.com\/products\/mx-electronic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"\" title=\"https:\/\/goaxil.com\/products\/mx-electronic\">MX electronic earmuffs<\/a>, released in April, offer 85-decibel compression and six-times hearing enhancement. They\u2019re powered by two AAA batteries and are compatible with helmets. They\u2019re also sweat- and water-resistant. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The MX earmuffs retail at $93.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Axil&#8217;s devices use compression to deliver hearing protection while still letting users hear speech.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":109210,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-noindex":"","_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-nofollow":"","_yoast_wpseo_canonical":"","_acf":"","_yoast_wpseo_primary_category":71,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","_smg_distribution_targets":[]},"categories":[101,71,25,13],"tags":[],"coauthors":[3396],"class_list":["post-72302","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-daily-news-roundup","category-gearscout","category-newsletters","category-off-duty"],"acf":{"subheadline":"","legacy_arc_id":"7SSKYRU2UZC2DNVIJACGQB2GRQ","arc_canonical_url":"\/off-duty\/gearscout\/2025\/05\/27\/axils-hearing-protection-enhancement-give-users-a-range-of-options\/","remove_feature_photo":false,"is_sponsored":false,"subtype":"","redirect_url":"","disable_inline_ads":false,"native_logo_pretext":"Presented By:"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.0 (Yoast SEO v28.1) -
