Silencio
Stopped by one of my fav thrift shops, today. Found these:
http://www.cabelas.com/prod-1/0027561226688a.shtml in black for 99 cents. They work SO well, I can't even hear my Blue and Gold Macaw's long range echolocation SONAR, a deafening flock call I'm sure can be heard at 20 miles in open country. Sometimes you wanna little "quiet time" where you just can't hear anything. These are great. I have no data but I'd bet 50db of attenuation would be conservative. They fit nice without touching your ears inside the cups. My only complaint is, to get a good seal, the cups are softly padded vinyl which, of course, makes you sweat. With the intensive internal foam attenuators, they'd make your ears warm at -50C...(c; Well, you don't feel it when you're napping in your favorite computer chair....as life goes clanking and screaming around you.... |
