Ear protection / enhancement under $200 Axil Gs Extreme 3.0?

[Quietking]

I’ve been looking into the Axil gs extreme 3.0 in ear protection, I was wondering if anyone has any feedback on them, or if they have a better recommendation under $200. In ear would be ideal but if there is better over ear options for the price I’ll take a look at them. Thank you in advance!!

I just bought my sister and her boyfriend a pair for Christmas. They seem to like them. I have the Sig in ear and honestly, I'm unsure if I like them or not. Kind of inconsistent. I will probably be replacing them with the Axil.

And the price is pretty good.

what is inconsistent about the sigs. Do they use them for range or for hunting as well?

Just occasionally they change volume on what they let in. I seem to always be either turning them up or down. Eliminating gunfire works great. But in conversation, it’s up and down.

I have (I think) the 2.0’s.
Used them the first time this hunting season.
They did a lot better than I expected.
Sound had a small amount of “muffling”, wind noise wasn’t bad and they were comfortable for about 3 hours.
I’m going to experiment with the different tips some more to try and find a better fit.
But, I didn’t think that 3 hours was bad for the first time.

Noise suppression was good. No ringing after the shot and noticeably quieter.

I have the 2.0. they lasted about 2 years. They have started picking up some interference with Bluetooth on.

Was never impressed with the pass-through audio on them.

In the market for something else in 2026. Watching thread.

Have a pair of the 2.0’s. Save your money and buy some foamies.

Did they only last the 3 hours or was that as long as you used them for ?

And when you say “foamies” what are you referring to? Like disposable ones?

I only wore them that long due to comfort.
Probably not their fault. Just my ears not being used to them.

They did not work well for me, but everyone is different.
