Safety Notice from Westone®: Digital hearing protection is designed for people with normal hearing only. The purpose of hearing protection is to reduce the impact of the sound and to reduce the potential for hearing loss. Digital hearing protection devices, including DefendEar products, do not eliminate sound. The user is responsible for determining whether the noise reduction provided by DefendEar products will provide adequate hearing protection based on the user’s unique medical history and exposure level. Your medical history, particularly any prior trauma to the ear or prior hearing loss, as well as the noise (decibel level and exposure time) the user will be exposed to should be considered prior to using DefendEar products. If you have any questions concerning the appropriate exposure levels or the level of hearing protection provided by DefendEar products, or if you have hearing loss or ear injuries, contact your local hearing professional before using.

Impulse noise is a loud blast of noise and may come from fireworks, gunfire, or explosions. Impulse noise is measured in dB peak pressure (dBP). Impulse noise greater than 140 dBP can cause immediate, permanent hearing loss. Even if immediate damage does not occur, impulse noises have the potential to damage your hearing over time.
Factors That Increase Risk of Hearing Loss from Firearms:
- Shooting in an indoor firing range or an enclosed structure such as a hunting blind which can redirect the sound wave energy back to your ears, increasing the noise levels reaching your ears.
- Shooting short-barreled guns because the muzzle is closer to your ears, increasing your risk.
- The caliber of the firearm can increase risk. Larger calibers generate higher energy sound waves, increasing dBP.
- Link: Peak dB SPL of Various Firearms
- Link: Peak dB SPL of Various Firearms
- Firing multiple rounds at a time, such as when range shooting, clay shooting, or bird hunting.
- Adding muzzle ports or muzzle brakes that send shock waves back towards your ears instead of out of the front of the muzzle, increasing your exposure and risk.
Hearing protection, if used properly and consistently, can help prevent noise-induced hearing loss from firearm activities. Contact us today to learn about your hearing protection options, so you can select the best hearing protection for your listening needs.
