Unorthodox design

Very unpleasant in form and fit. To compressing as wire is pre-tensioned by design. Thought after years of wearing conventional muffs I just might like this design. NO, not for me.

Weak earpiece

Plastic arm that attaches the wire to the ear muff breaks easily making the protectors useless. Caldwell doesn't show a replacement part.

Worth purchasing

These ear protectors are a good buy, and I'm very happy with them. The fit was comfortable, and they fit under my headgear. They pass the softer sounds well, and damping of the loud sounds was quick and effective. My only suggestion is that they could use a fabric strap across the top of the head to hold them in vertical position. As I was moving and shooting, I could feel them dropping until they bent down the top of my ear. I may try to build such a strap and attach it.

Good value but they have a weak spot.

Since I prefer behind the head the choices are limited. These are OK. They work fairly well. The clamping last a bit too long so when much shooting is going on, it's hard to have a conversation. 1/2 second is a long time when trying to talk. I always carry 2 sets because they break easily. The plastic piece that attaches to the earpiece breaks without much pressure. Once I called Caldwell and they would not sell me the replacement pieces but they did send me a new headset. At this point I had 3 headsets and enough parts to make 2. I have since learned to be more careful when putting them on by holding them by the spring wires rather than the earpieces. Now for the good news. You can buy the non electronic version for $10.99 so for a few bucks. you get 4 replacement brackets to extend the life of your electronic headset

Weak ear support.

Had these for a while. Very comfortable however the 3rd time I used them the muff support broke. Not sure there are any parts available. Never received an answer from Caldwell. :(

About Caldwell E-Max BTH

The E-Max Behind-the-Head hearing protection combines great circuitry with a low profile ear cup that's ideal for shotgun shooters and action shooters. The E-Max amplify sounds up to 20dB, controlled by the volume dial on the right ear cup. This is beneficial for normal communication, range commands, and environmental sounds. With sounds above 85 decibels, the speakers shut off for a split second to protect the shooters hearing. Two microphones, one in each cup, give the user true stereo function and help the user to localize sound.
