Активные наушники howard leight impact sport bolt

Обзор активных наушников Howard Impact Sport

Уши надо беречь. На стрельбище – особенно. В ряде случаев, если вы стреляете мало или стрельба ведётся из оружия без дульных устройств, можно обойтись и без наушников. Но если на оружии стоит ДТК, то первые же выстрелы могут привести к контузии или даже повреждению барабанной перепонки.

«Ховарды», совместное применение с противогазом и адаптированным под наушники баллистическим шлемом

В стрелковом мире применяется 3 вида защиты органов слуха: разнообразнейшие затычки (беруши, вата, бумага, свежие листья, гильзы от ПМ и т.д.), пассивные наушники (начиная от 100-рублёвых строительных) и сплав современных технологий — активные наушники.

С первыми двумя позициями всё понятно, поэтому сегодня мы поговорим об активных наушниках. А начнём с популярной в России модели Howard Impact Sport.

В наушниках Impact Sport производителем заявлен коэффициент снижения шума в пределах 22-25 дБ, при усилении внешних звуков до безопасного уровня в 82 Дб. Звукопередача производится в стерео режиме – это большой плюс. Электроника наушников автоматически блокирует звуковые импульсы, если они превышают безопасный уровень.

Наушники Impact Sport привлекательны внешне и выглядят вполне современно. В сложенном виде наушники очень компактны. Что немаловажно в нашем случае – наушники имеют достаточно плоские (низкопрофильные) чашки и не создают дискомфорта при стрельбе, при этом есть возможность индивидуальной регулировки в широких пределах.

Конструкция наушников прочная, что подтверждено их популярностью. Как уже было отмечено выше, наушники имеют направленные стерео микрофоны, что позволяет определить направление источника звука. Из органов управления есть только один регулятор, который отвечает и за включение/выключение и за регулировку громкости. Это удобно.

Для любителей использовать любое оборудование по максимуму есть AUX вход, благодаря которому к наушникам можно подключить радиостанцию или внешний MP3-плеер. Блок питания рассчитан на 2 батарейки типа ААА (мизинчики), которые, по заявлению производителя, обеспечивают 350 часов работы наушников. Если вы забыли выключить наушники после тренировки, для сбережения батареек предусмотрено автоматическое выключение после 4 часов нахождения наушников в неподвижном состоянии.

На голове наушники сидят комфортно – плотно, но не давят. При необходимости расположение чашек можно легко отрегулировать по высоте. Включение наушников и регулировка громкости звука проблем не вызывает – пальцы сами находят рубчатое колёсико на плоскости левой чашки.

При стрельбе наушники не мешают вообще, но для работы с ними требуется некоторое время к привыканию. Досадно, но под стандартные баллистические шлемы российского и американского производства эти наушники не подходят – нужен «горшок» с соответствующими вырезами.

Howard Impact Sport без проблем могут применяться совместно с противогазом любой конструкции

Самое главное – они замечательно гасят звук выстрелов, причём как своих, так и соседских, которые по ушам могут бить гораздо болезненнее. Одновременно усиливают тихие звуки, в т.ч. – разговор. Конечно, присутствует и паразитарный фоновый шум, но тут уж ничего не поделаешь. Наушники крепкие, батареек хватает надолго.

Howard Impact Sport являются отличным бюджетным вариантом наушников для спорта – это факт, тем более что предназначение заложено и в название изделия. А вот заявления о пригодности этих наушников для охоты лично у меня вызывают сомнения. Ради интереса я походил по лесу в наушниках (включённых, разумеется) – слишком много паразитарных шумов. На охоте с засидки эти наушники могут оказаться куда полезнее.

Description

The Howard Leight Impact Sport BOLT Electronic Shooting Earmuff offers a lightning-fast .5 MS (millisecond) attack time for instant hearing protection that doesn’t leave you in silence afterward.

Featuring a digital processor that turns the amplifier on/off 250X faster than any of our previous electronic ear protection models, the Impact Sport BOLT Electronic Earmuff blocks gunshot-noise spikes and other ambient sound over 82 dB. This is essential for range shooting, where constant gunshot noise can fatigue your ears.

The .5 MS attack time also keeps you connected to your shooting environment by eliminating sound-clipping (the inadvertent blocking of ambient sound after a gunshot). This is crucial for hearing range commands or simply conversing with fellow shooters. The amplifier features built-in stereo microphones that can boost range talk or quiet animal sounds up to 5X. The microphones are also directional so you know where the sound is coming from (a real benefit for tracking prey or following range commands).

The passive hearing protection for shooting of the Impact Sport BOLT is also impressive. The earcups feature Air Flow Control Technology (AFC) which lets in low frequency conversation while protecting against high frequency gunshots.

From a design standpoint, the low profile earcup features an indented cutout that allows your cheek to press flush to the gunstock without breaking the seal of the ear cushion. The leatherette headband is padded for comfort, and adjustable for a secure fit. Connectivity is also built-in, with an AUX input and 3.5 mm cord facilitating hookup for MP3 players, scanners etc. Two AAA batteries (included) deliver approximately 150 hours of usage, and the four-hour auto shut-off prevents needless draining. The Impact Sport BOLT Shooting Earmuff features a Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) of 22dB for ear protection. All Howard Leight earmuffs and safety eyewear are compatible for use with each other.
