Active vs Passive earplugs. How to choose hearing protection for Shooting.
Passive Earplugs
Passive earplugs works by physically blocking sound waves from entering the ear canal. While it effectively reduces noise levels entering the ear, it also blocks out all sound, making it difficult to communicate or hear warning signals.
Sound Experience:
- Muffled overall, like turning down the volume of the world.
-
High frequencies (speech clarity, treble in music) are reduced more than low frequencies.
-
Imagine putting your hands over your ears — it’s a bit like that.
Active Earplugs
Active earplugs use electronic technology to analise and cancel out harmful noise (usually impulse sounds like gunshots, or constant hums like engines), while preserving speech or ambient awareness.
Sound Experience:
- Quieter background noise, but clear speech or warning sounds.
- Sudden loud noises (gunshot, hammering) are instantly dulled.
- It feels like an intelligent “auto-volume” for your ears.
Active earplugs have become very popular in shooting sports and recreational activities. It allows you to hear commands and communicate with others, while still protecting your hearing from loud gunshots.
Both active and passive earplugs offer effective hearing protection, but they do so in different ways suited to various environments. Whether you choose passive or active, both technologies are designed to protect your hearing and reduce the risk of noise-induced damage.
