Quote from: Sixes on March 07, 2023, 10:57:25 PMFor you guys that have the Tetras, are they available in single ears?My hearing loss is in my left ear, I take yearly audiological tests yearly for work and receive the results and the hearing in my right ear is above average for my age (52) but my left ear is pitiful. Shooter's ear. Ive tried Walkers Gameear, Walker's muffs, Howard Leights, and a couple of off brands and the Walker's Gameear is the only one that I have had partial success with. It definitely enhances sounds, but I cannot for the life of me tell what direction a noise comes from.If I hear a turkey gobble or a deer walking, it is always 45-90 degrees further to the left than what is registering in my brain. I've just dealt with it the last few years and not worn anything, but I would buy something that would work. But, in reality, I only need something for my left ear.If they are only available in pairs, are they individually set for each ear? That was the problem with the Leights, they enhanced both ears and my right ear was still a lot more dominate and caused me to have problems pinpointing the sounds. The Walker Gameear worked the best for me because I only used it in my left ear
Quote from: ncwoodsman on April 19, 2023, 02:41:32 PMI would like to mention something regarding the Tetra turkey amp pods. This season is my first season using them and I can truly say they are awesome hearing devices but I didn't read the fine print below listed on there website which is on me. DO NOT think they are going to block the blast of a shotgun, ask me how I know. My ears have been ringing for several days since I shot with them in. Hopefully this will save someone else from going through what I am right now.AmpPods suppress the volume of the gunshot significantly compared to an open ear. However, because AmpPods do not create a total and tight seal in the ear, they are not designed as hearing protection devices.

With them in you hear everything making you think your being clumsy. It takes a good season to get use to them. But make sure you wear them after your set up. Smart investment. Good luck.

Quote from: JeffC on April 25, 2023, 03:37:27 PMThank you ncwoodsman, would hate to spend money on something that wont help where I need help.[/quI totally agree. My hearing loss issues are with high pitch sounds so I can hear bass like sounds very well. Might be worth giving them a call and discussing what you are looking for.
Quote from: strum on March 02, 2023, 01:38:28 PMI visited their site on your recommendations. I don't have any of the HSA so I'd have to pay straight up. I did the hearing test per their instructions . waiting to hear back from them. I was really looking into something like the walker razor xv3.0 or the around the or the rope hearing enhancer. This tetra stuff is very pricey. May be more than I'm ready to spend and yet they do look pretty promising.
