Fury Dual-Defense

I normally care about whether or not headphones are comfortable but I care more about functionality than anything else due to my current work conditions. I had purchased three pairs of work headphones all from different brands prior to this purchase and all three have broken within a four month time frame. The fact that this pair arrived before Christmas was already a relief so first and foremost, thank you to Elgin and USPS for the quick shipping. Second, the 40 decible noise reduction caught me off guard and I didn't believe it was true when I read it and after checking the only other review on this product (at the time of this purchase), I decided to take the chance and purchase these headphones. I was NOT disappointed at all. The earmuffs alone provide great protection more or less within my employer's workplace required regulations for noise reduction (because they're weird about it) and the earbuds provide the additional protection and overall the headset has really good sound quality up to my personal standards for headphones which definitely helps because I'm always picky about that when purchasing headphones. I'm also happy they arrived with all the different silicone and foam tips for the inner earbuds. Mine came with 3 different size foam tips, 2 different sizes silicone tips, and then 2 different size normal earbud tips which absolutely helps because I have sensory issues within my ear cannals and can't use specific shape or material ear tips without fidgeting with it and breaking things. The instructions are simplified and easy to follow and they even sent the correct charging cord plus a AUX audio cord. So far it's pretty durable and I'm happy about that so now I'm hoping it can take a little bit of a beating because I buy my products for long-term use. Back to the noise reduction. The 40 decible reduction checks out. I couldn't hear literally dang-near anything which is impressive in itself and the only reason I could hear anybody speak clearly through the reduction is because my bosses have loud voices and I was unlucky enough to inherit my dad's super hearing so the extra reduction helps with my hearing sensitivity and normally overwhelming background noise. Bluetooth connection is super simple and works just like completely normal earbuds. Now a quick word of information to anyone wanting to purchase these. The carrying case itself doesn't really feel like it's durable from the outside but it's designed like that on purpose! A thin foam exterior and harder interior (that's what it feels like to me) is better for shock-absorbing drop-proof protection so it generally keeps everything safer inside the case that way. That's normal! I see a lot of headsets get bad reviews and/or conflicted reviews for that only for me to purchase the headsets and the carrying cases be completely fine so I just wanted to clarify that. The case is also well-built in my opinion.

My review simplified is great sound quality, great noise reduction, good durability for both the headset and the case, ease of use and functionality is great, comfort is adjustable and also great, and the shipping got it here quickly and on time before Christmas.

10/10 headset, definitely worth the extra money, and would absolutely purchase again. Thank you Elgin!!!

I was skeptical to say the least when purchasing. 40dB NRR is practically unheard of (no pun intended) but I figured if they were anywhere near that, for the sale price I was getting it would be a good deal - I even bought a second set for my friend whose birthday was coming up. A few days after receiving, I needed to move some logs using my tractor so I put them to the test. My tractor has a cab which is noisier than you would expect. Bluetooth connectivity was simple they paired right up to my phone without issue. I put the music at a pretty low volume and it was like the noise of my tractor disappeared, even with the engine running. When standing in front of the tractor to load some logs into the bucket by hand, I could not hear the engine at all. I wondered if it was even running and put my hand on it to make sure and it definitely was. I bought these explicitly for the purpose of using with my tractor and they do an excellent job. The only criticism I really have for them is that the ear cups are pretty stiff and they probably need to be in order to achieve the low profile they have. I would have been totally fine with thicker, softer ear cups as that would make them a bit more comfortable but other than that, these things are pretty great.

Only was able to use fury dual- defense for about a week before they quit working. While they worked they were awesome. Especially in manufacturing plant that is extremely noisy.
