Blue tooth ear plugs

Anyone ever tried the Axil Xcore ear plugs/buds…

 

[jds holler]

Are they for noise suppression only, or also sound amplification? jd

 

[Bogusname]

I think both.

everything about them was looking good until I saw that they are rechargeable. I have had so many thing in my live that once the rechargeable battery dies they are useless. I use etymoyic gps-15 for many years with a replaceable battery. only issues I have ever had is they are so small, I have lost them. now I clip them to me or run the cord through my ball cap . learned the hard way.

I had a hard time getting a good fit. Would not purchase again.

I was pretty happy with the Walker ear bud bluetooth (battery) . But I lost them and looking for another pair.

I have the Walkers.

I bought the xcors on the sale. The walkers foam ends are coming off in my ears. The battery doesn't last long enough for me to get through a match or mowing.

I've worn both mowing and streaming music.

I've shot with both. Need to work on the xcor foam size. I tried the smallest and I think it was too small.

I wear ear plugs while mowing and such religiously anymore. The music or podcast is nice.. saving my hearing is more important.

Sound quality is better on the xcor. I'm still learning the controls. The Walker app didn't work on my phone....an app to control would be great as they are both small and controls are limited and sorts drive me nuts. But that's kinda part of it. They are what they are.


If anyone wants a better comparison or xcor review, send me a PM in a month or so and I'd be glad to talk my thoughts after I've had more time.

I have a pair I will gladly send you. I good not get a good fit, Walker was not willing to do anything. Send me a PM with your information. I'll get them in the mail ASAP, you can have them by nest week-end.

I wish I could use rear plugs. In the summer here the heat and humidity make them impossible. Even though I scrub my ears morning and night, they seem to push sweat and dirt into my ear and I wind up with an outer ear infection that requires a trip to the doctor.

Damn you autocorrect, lol

That's funny. I hate auto correct.

 

[Mike Casselton]

Rear plugs?
Sounds a bit kinky.

Oh, I call it Auto-Incorrect...

Look at OtoPro Technologies. They’re a bit pricey but the customer service that goes with them is amazing.

One problem with rechargeable ear plugs is that you have to replace them when the battery goes bad. My son-in-law has had to replace his twice.

I agree with others that the rechargeable kind eventually die. I have used Caldwell and Walkers. The Caldwell were the worst in terms of durability.
