Overview
The AXIL XCOR PRO II earbuds are the second generation of AXIL’s flagship shooting earbuds, combining hearing protection, amplified hearing and Bluetooth audio in one slim in-ear design (brand part no. XCORPROII). Fitted with the included foam tips they carry a 24 dB noise reduction rating, and AXIL’s SonicShieldX filter compresses gunshot impact at the microphone before it ever reaches the electronics. New in this version is Active Noise Reduction, which strips background noise in hear-through mode so conversation and range commands come forward, while the enhancement mode amplifies quiet sounds up to six times. Bluetooth 5.3 handles calls and music, and Automatic Sound Balancing blends that audio with what is going on around you. For a shooter or hunter who wants one set of earbuds for the range, the blind and the drive home, AXIL built this one to do all three.
Features

- Wireless audio runs on Bluetooth 5.3 for calls and streaming from a phone.
- Active Noise Reduction filters environmental noise in hear-through mode, bringing speech forward.
- SonicShieldX is a physical filter at the microphone that compresses explosive impact noise before the electronics see it.
