What is Hearing Protection?
Hearing protection is the practice of wearing various devices to reduce hearing damage during certain activities. For example, hunters often wear earbuds and monitors that reduce the damage caused by loud gunshots while still allowing the sounds of nature to filter in.
You may need a hearing protection device if you regularly engage in a hobby that can be damaging to your hearing health. Manufacturers make custom protection devices for many of these hobbies, which we cover below.
