Another common argument for doubling up on earpro is that it can mitigate the possibility of hearing loss through bone conduction. I am reading more about this myself due to the heavy equipment that I work around and working at an indoor shooting range in the past.


This thread prompted me to do some digging and reading:

Hearing Protector Performance

Attenuation of Earplugs In Conjunction With Earmuffs



What sort of information have you folks come across in regards to hearing loss through bone conduction?
