sullyscroller Posted December 27, 2015 Report Posted December 27, 2015 At my request my wife got me a set of work tunes headphones for Christmas, I am amazed at how well they work. Even with my planer and air compressor going it muffles them to a whisper and i can still hear my music as clear as a bell. It sure beats the radio blasting in my shop. Picked them up at Lowes for around $60. sully bobscroll 1 Quote

redwine Posted December 27, 2015 Report Posted December 27, 2015 Sully, you will love these! I have had a set for about 3 years and use them constantly! Here is a tip to save on the double A batteries, get 4 or 6, however they are packaged, rechargeable double A batteries along with a charger and you will always have a set ready to go. The head set is fairly easy on batteries but you will always have them handy! Erv sullyscroller and bobscroll 2 Quote
bandaideman Posted December 28, 2015 Report Posted December 28, 2015 Sully those a great. I have used them for several years same set. Use them on the mower and in the shop and yes it does help muffle the wife. I also found if the Scroll saw is not too far away and your radio plays CDs and you and has a plug in for audio jack then you can hook up to the radio and ear phones save the battery and listen to your own music. sullyscroller 1 Quote
spirithorse Posted December 28, 2015 Report Posted December 28, 2015 Great news, Sully, and glad to see you back on the forum!I'm just wondering if you can wear these comfortably with eye protection?I just use common ear muffs or what-ever you call them but, I usually find myself removing my glasses. I know I shouldn't but, I have trouble wearing both. God Bless! Spirithorse Quote
kywoodmaster Posted December 28, 2015 Report Posted December 28, 2015 Thanks for the info. I will have to look into those. Quote

Phantom Scroller Posted December 29, 2015 Report Posted December 29, 2015 Roly, Care to enlighten us as to WHY you might be concerned?? jerry Well my machine is behind the door and she scares the crap out of me just as I'm on the delicate part. I think that's a good enough reason plus she calls my for a cuppa when it's ready, oh and she don't like coming out in the rain. Quote
Young_Scroller Posted December 31, 2015 Report Posted December 31, 2015 Those are always nice to have, I usually just blast some music through my earbuds and that muffle all sounds Quote
