Tools and Hardware Reviews of Peltor WTD2600 Worktunes Digital 26 dB Radio/Hearing Protector
Customer Review: mixed feelings
Summary: 3 Stars
I work construction and there are 3 of us there with 3 different radio headphones so I'll give some feedback on all 3.
Kelly has the widely available AO Safety Worktunes and I have the Peltor WTD2600 model. These two sets are both made by Peltor and are almost the exact same. The AO Safety muffs are not as deep. This means that sometimes you can feel the foam stuffing on your ears and also the noise suppression is only 22 db. The Peltor WTD2600 set have deeper muffs, which means higher profile, slightly bulkier but very quiet. Besides that, they seem to function the exact same in regards to the radio and MP3 playback. I am a bit disappointed in the radio. We live in an area with great local college radio stations and these headsets only pick up the really big, corporate radio stations. This has a lot to do with location but any jobsite radio or car will pick up the smaller local stations and these headphones will not. The AO Safety are about $50 and the Peltors are about $60, the difference being the db suppression, I assume. The sound quality is mediocre. One drawback to these ear muffs, more so for the Peltors, is that when you have them on you will not be able to hear someone speaking to you whether you are playing music or not. For that feature, you would have to have noise canceling headphones, ones that actually let in sounds of lower decibels but suppress the louder ones.
Ian has the Ryobi Tek4 4V Noise Suppression Headphones, for about $70. These have a similar muff to the AO Safety and also a comparable sound quality for MP3 playback but they have no radio. These ARE noise canceling, however, and that is a pretty nice feature to have. There is an easily accessible knob to regulate how much of your environmental noise gets through. At the highest suppression level everything is really muffled and you will only hear loud things such as saws or hammering. At the lowest suppression level the saw will be sharper but still quiet and certain things, such as birds tweeting, will actually be slightly louder than usual. Also, they come with rechargeable batteries. Ian claims my Peltors are more comfortable.
