Sordin Pro X LED Headphones
The Sordin Supreme Pro-X are excellent headphones for those looking beyond budget hearing protection. The Sordin Supreme Pro-X LED model comes standard with gel cup ear muffs which are extremely comfortable. The LED model also comes with a small white LED integrated into the headphone cup which is very handy if you do anything in the dark. The Sordins have great positional audio and don't completely cut audio during gunfire like cheaper hearing protection. These headphones have a 3.5mm jack for plugging in comms like radios and PTT mics and can be purchased with a neck band set up for wearing under a helmet. The Sordin Pro-X line can be bought for around $280-$330 which is significantly more expensive than budget options like the Walker Razors ($50) but cheaper than higher end headpones like ComTacs and Ops-core sets. If you don't need the extra bells and whistles or are just getting into shooting I would go with the Walker Razors.
