Great investment in comfort and safety
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.All around happy with these headphones. I often work driving loud trucks and heavy equipment. While I need to hear alarms, horns or changes in the sound of the machinery the dull roar can become incredibly exhausting. However with these headphones I can adjust how much of the ambient noise I hear so I do not interfere with the safe operation of said equipment. I am also very pleased with the call quality and I am told that I sound much clearer when on the headphones whether or not I'm operating equipment
