Axil have taken to Kickstarter to fund the production of their new noise-filtering earplugs. (http://kck.st/2oxHS0J.) The XP Defender and XP Reactor, both non-digital and made of silicone, give users control over what sounds to block out, unlike other noise-canceling earplugs. The filters of the XP Reactor let in low-level passive sounds so users have normal hearing whether loud noises are around. They provide a low NRR rating of around 8 dB for passive attenuation. The disc and mesh inside of the filter together provide a noise reduction of as much as 33 dB automatically. The XP Defender operates the same way as the XP Reactor. It comes with a switch that allows users to make the earplug's passive attenuation go up to NRR 18 dB. The XP Defender also has a special sound valve that can be opened and closed by a switch to let in select sounds.
The XP Defender and the XP Reactor are manufactured through a collaboration with Dynamic Ear Company, which specializes in sound filtering technology. Backers of the campaign will be able to purchase the products for $19 each. Axil has surpassed its fundraising goal of $20,000 and reached $53,397 at the time of publication. The Kickstarter campaign will remain active for 28 more days.
