Hi all,
I am new to the world of guns. I just bought my first gun and am looking to purchase some ear protection as well. I would prefer the electronic kind but I don't know much about it really. So I'm hoping to pull from the wealth of knowledge I've seen on this site.
The catch here is that I'm deaf in my left ear. Now from what I know about the fancy electronic ear protection, SOME of them actually have mics on each ear and ONLY put out the sound to that particular ear. Is all electronic ear protection this way or no? In my case I think it might be better if I get something that plays the sound in BOTH ears regardless of which direction the sound came from, because I'd rather hear the sound in my right ear even if the source is the left side of my head, than to never hear the sound at all because it's only piped in my deaf ear. Make sense?
Can anyone recommend the best electronic ear protection for someone like me or give me any additional advice? Price is not really an issue because with one good ear left how can I put a price on my hearing.
Thanks,
Matt
