Really good set of hearing protection. Kind of awkward to get used to putting them in your ears at first, but once you get used to it it's no problem. Had a charging issue right after buying but customer service helped to solve my problem quickly.

I love the compact design and 29 dB Single Number Rating (SNR) ear protection which compresses sounds at 85 db and louder. My ears are no longer sweating and in pain. Bluetooth is a major plus to be able to listen to music or receive a call. My big negative is applying the plugs into the ear for a secure fit. If I don’t get the pinch, squeeze and turn just right they will slide out, which can end up causing loud sound to enter the ear canal.

My favorite feature would be how they fit once you get them in your ear. They are comfortable they’re tight they’re not dangling where they get caught on things and the quality sound is awesome

This product is awesome. It provides great hearing protection while being able to hear conversations and/or listen to music. My experience may differ from others, but for me the batteries on the devices themselves lasted a long time. I'll be taking care of these things so they'll last me a great long while.

Purchased these primarily because they went on a great sale. I previously had a set of walkers but disliked having to replace batteries. The sound suppression is pretty good but still have not used the Bluetooth feature enough to render a fair review. I thought these came with a phone app that would monitor status of the earbuds as far as battery level and protection level ( This would be a good product enhancement) More to come as I put them through their paces.

I enjoyed them. Very comfortable and light weight. Only bad thing was while shooting I could hear a slight crackle. I turned the volume down but then I couldn’t hear when I hit the steel targets. So I just kept them on high.

Worked as promised. Setup and connection was quick and easy. Just wish it would fit and stay more firmly in the ear canal while moving around in multiple shooting positions. I tried the different sizes of foam tips it came supplied with, but they never stayed seated in the ar canal vey long. I kept having to consistently push them back in every couple of minutes after moving. Other than that they performed very well. For the most part, I'm happy with my purchase. I Would buy them again.

I was pleasantly surprised how well they worked with a rifle. Very simple to use and setup. Comfortable to wear for extended periods of time and they did not fall off.

The ability to have the passive hearing that automatically kills the noise over 85db is amazing. I bought them for shooting but found myself using them more on the job site with nail guns and power tools going. Gives you the ability to maintain a conversation while still protecting your ears. The batteries for me have lasted longer than what they advertise. I highly recommend.

I have only had the XCOR earbuds for a few short months but have used them frequently. They are perfect for my intended use during weapons qualifications for the police department. A surprising benefit was when I decided to use them at a university football game. Normally the environment is too noisy to hear any radio communication. With the XCOR I was able to block out the crowd noise (Over 29 decibels) but could clearly hear the radio communication. Without the XCOR this would not have bee...

I bought these for my husband when he goes shooting and he absolutely loves them! They provide him with much better protection than his regular hearing protection muffs. Added bonus that they have Bluetooth connection. Great product!

I purchased a pair of these for me and my hunting buddy. They worked great and as advertised. After awhile I forgot I was wearing them. I plan to use on all future hunting and shooting occasions.

More Comfortable than the throw away hearing protection PPE and a lot comfier and better at their job than any cheaper of mid year hearing protection. And honestly they are sleek and smooth and look good on whoever is wearing them.

I have 2 sets. They are wonderful! My wife took my first pair and didn’t give it back so had to get another! I use them all the time for just a listening device but also easily placed for hearing protection as during my day I never really know when I need that so they are super handy to have on and available. The sounds is great. They are really nice as well with the turning on and off the outside noise. It picks up other sounds really well! Love these hearing tools!

The quality of this product is topof the line. You can clearly hear when needed and muffles shoot noise. Great buy for the range. I recommend to anyone wanting good gear

Ed F.Verified

Finally had a chance to use these. Wow! Amazing fit and concomitant hearing protection! The audio amplification is outstanding, clear and sensitive, yet the clamping speed for explosive sounds is even more remarkable!

This ear bud is probably best I have worn yet. As an over the counter and not special order to fit my ear, they perform quite well. I have worn them bird hunting numerous times as well as to the gun range. I utilize the foam insert that came with the buds and they really seal up my to help cancel gunshots, so my hearing does not become any more worse than what it already is. The sound quality is really good for a hearing supplement like these and they instantly shut out loud noises when they occ...

I wore them for a rifle qualifications the other day and they blocked out the sound of the short barrel rifle I was shooting. I used to have to double up my protection but the ear buds performed fantastically. It's always a plus to listen to Jimmy Buffett while shooting. Even with my music on I could hear all the range commands clearly

XCOR

Stephen P.Verified

As a welder and occasional shooter, I'm constantly around loud noises. These earbuds are solid at eliminating unwanted noise. With the foam ends in, I hear very little of the grinding and banging noises I make, except for the music playing through them. They come with plenty of replacements of different sizes. The pass through hearing mode does a great job allowing me to still communicate without removal. I am very rough on my accessories(phones, and now these earbuds). Not because I don't try ...

I just purchased the XCOR Wireless Earpro Buds and I have to say, these things are fantastic. I mean come on, how comfortable can something sticking in your ear really be but I have to say I found the right foam insert and I'm very impressed. I popped in my local range for some RSO duty for the very first test run of these earbuds. After getting set up and entering the pistol platform I soon realized the decibel reduction was quite impressive. And then wandered over to the rifle range not knowin...

Cara G.Verified

My husband requested the XCOR earbuds for his birthday. He goes to the shotgun range weekly and he says the earbuds are comfortable and work really well. He did say he likes being able to completely shut off the outside noise (conversations) when it's his turn to shoot.

Russ D.Verified

Work better than expected. Use them for hog hunting from a box blind. I can leave them in enhanced hearing mode and hear all the sounds in the woods and there is no need to position ear pro before firing the rifle.

These buds work surprisingly well. I’ve shot multiple hand and long gun calibers with out a problem. Extremely comfortable once I figured them out. I use them for music at work and target practice at night. I love this product.

Dan M.Verified

Excellent upgrade. Was using AXIL GS Extreme 2.0 plugs of which I was very satisfied. I decided to upgrade to AXIL XCOR plugs which have proven even more comfortable and affective. That's a true upgrade from an already amazing product.

Christopher B.Verified

I've been a big fan of the GS Extreme 2.0 earbuds for a couple of years. I'm not a huge fan of the wire wrapping around my ears and going behind my head. The XCor is more comfortable, has excellent hearing protection without compromising conversation quality and excellent sound quality listening to music or conversing on a phone call.

Carl G.Verified

They work for grass cutting as well as the gun range. Hearing loss is a worry of mine. I have to protect what I have left. I am very happy with my purchase. They do a wonderful job with a bonus of my favorite music while I put in my work .

These earbuds are amazing ! The fit is solid and comfortable. The noise blocking is on point. Having conversations while they’re on is crystal clear. And I love the clear Bluetooth ! Knocked it outta the park !!

Although I've only used the TRACKR a few times pheasant hunting this season, I find it comfortable to wear, better fitting than other headsets I own, and the sound quality is outstanding. Great product.

can't hear a peep of the gym music when I have these on with the silencing plugs, but if I want to hear someone/something it's just a click away with the enhanced hearing

John S.Verified

It appears to seal very well and has alternatives for different diameters of Ear Canals. The sound suppression is great. The connection to BlueTooth is pretty easy. I like the "no cords" feature.

XCOR

Louis D.Verified

I was a little confused at first as to how to adjust them but quickly learned how they work. My ears usually don’t hold ear buds very well. Not the case here. They fit well and work great. Glad I purchased them and highly recommend them. Comfortable with good sound amplification and very good protection from shooting noise.

XCOR

James L.Verified

Quick start guide was thorough and informative. It made the startup process very easy. Sound quality is great. Sound enhancement works well, but could use some sound filtering improvement. Hearing protection quality is good. Sound compression is good and easily adequate for load environments. I found the devices comfortable and effective for hunting use.

XCOR

John P.Verified

For me they are more comfortable than previous versions the ear fittings are slightly smaller feeling. It’s great not dealing with a connecting cord. Seems like they shunt gun shots better. I use hearing aids so sound application is a must and they do good, not quite up to my hearing aid quality but at a fraction of the cost I would not expect that

Sabrina M.Verified

I cannot begin to tell you how much I love this ear protection! Even if I forget to turn them on when standing out on the range, they block the sound of other weapons being fired and I absolutely abhor the clunky ear muffs! The Bluetooth option is an awesome extra added bonus! Thank you, Axil!

Ron C.Verified

I have worn my Axil's while running a tractor and bush hog, while using a chainsaw clearing downed trees, and all day shooting sporting clays. I really like being able to hear conversation while blocking the damaging loud noise, and being able to blue tooth to my phone while on the tractor. While shooting being able to block out background conversations increased my score and were comfortable all day

GS Extreme 2.0

Michael G.Verified

Great product, quick delivery. I run heavy equipment and shoot competitive sporting clays as well as use them to enhance wildlife sounds while hunting. Caught them an sale and purchased two pair. The Bluetooth is great with stereo quality music.

I wear these while working out and listening to podcasts via the Bluetooth connection. They work great, keep the gun fire sound out while staying in place and playing my pod. They are a little clunky compared to AirPods, but can you shoot with AirPods?

GS Extreme 2.0

Jason G.Verified

These are amazing! It is really great that you can protect your hearing but at the same time, be connected to your device and also hear your surroundings! Also they have excellent customer service to boot.

Not a fan of ear buds, have gotten real used to bone conduction. While mowing and trimming I used bulky, hard to hear Bluetooth earmuffs. Have used my Axils for a couple of weeks, sometimes up to 8 hours at a time… complete comfort! Phone calls are easy. Sound is great.Haven’t had the chance to “play” with them on the range yet, but looking forward to it. Even bought the wife a set! Definitely a worthwhile purchase!

GS Extreme 2.0

Eric W.Verified

Don't have a lot of use on them yet, but the time spent with them was a trip to the range and some lawn mowing. The initial fitting is very important, you'll likely need to make a few minor adjustments before they are perfect. Noise cancelling is my primary use and they worked great for that. There is some "hiss" at the higher amplification levels when used for enhanced hearing. Also so much better than wearing over the ear muffs. Lighter, doesn't get in the way and you don't get wet sticky rub...
