Headsets and ear plugs?

[Gomer Pylot]

The earplugs don't have to be deep in your ear canals. When I use foam plugs on my CEPs, I clip about 3/8 inch off the ends so they don't go so deep, are easier to insert, and let the sound from the CEP speakers come through more clearly. I get just as much noise suppression. Normally the earplugs should protrude from your ears, but I prefer getting them in further, to allow the CEP speakers to lie closer to my ears, so the skullcap doesn't bend them around so much, and clipping them off allows that without putting them so far into my ear canals.

The CEP work pretty will with regular DC's too?

 

Im getting rid of my ANR DC's because the left speaker broke 3 times so far this year. I'm thinking it may have something to do with having the volume cranked up so high so I can hear the radios with foam earplugs in. I don't want to blow up my Zulu either, so I'm looking for another solution.

Yes, CEPs will work with regular DC headsets.

Do you have to send them in to DC to have the connection done? Or can you buy the kit and do it yourself. I have a little experience with ALSE and installing CEPs on the HGU-56s was a bit of a process.

I'm almost certain you just do them yourselves, but I'm not 100% sure.

Hello,

Do you know that the earplugs has NRR(noise reduction ratio). The earplugs having more noise reduction ratio can resist the noise upto large extent whereas the earplugs having low NRR cannot resist the noise upto that extent. So, recommend you to use the earplugs having more NRR.

Thanks
