Hello everyone,
The world of jobsite Bluetooth hearing protectors is nothing but garbage. 3M work tunes, ISO-Tunes, it's all crap.
So rather than going the route of Bluetooth earmuffs, I figure I can probably get much better sound quality by just using some quality Bluetooth IEMs under my normal 3M X5A Peltor hearing protectors.
The thing is, the need for these IEMs to fit underneath a pair of earmuffs changes the ranking criteria of most reviews. Small size and good battery life become the most important aspects, so that they can fit, and can last through a workday. Sound quality takes a backseat.
So, I'm wondering what you guys would recommend as a sub-$300 pair of IEMs that would have great battery life, but still be small enough to not extend beyond the bounds of the ear.
Any help is appreciated, thank you.
