Radio Earpieces for Awareness or Isolation
Posted by Decibullz on Apr 5, 2021
Ensuring all day, in-the-field comfort is what Decibullz is all about. That’s why we’re excited to showcase our newest expansion of custom molded hearing products: two-way radio earpieces. Yes, you read that right, earpieces with an “s”. We launched one to market a little over a year ago, and now we’ve expanded to two options. One for +Awareness: for situations where you still need to hear your surroundings; and one for +Isolation: to reduce sound in consistently loud environments. By broadening our lineup, we’re able to better assist those in the public safety sector, including everyday heroes in law enforcement, fire response, EMS, Secret Service, and more.
THE BEST ACOUSTIC TUBE EARPIECES FOR MISSION-CRITICAL COMMUNICATION
Now, before we dive in, we know they’ve been called by many names, and there’s no doubt we’ll miss a couple here, but these walkie talkie, 2-way, acoustic tube, security, police earpiece, communication earpieces are the quintessential item on any mission-critical team.
So, call them whatever you want, but these communication earpieces answer some of the most requested needs out there. How do we know this? Because we heard it from you, our customers. We developed these earpieces based on real customer feedback. By listening to your most common issues, we designed two versions of our classic acoustic tube earpiece adapters. One keeps comms clear but lets the world in, while the other blocks out more of the chaos without limiting critical information, all thanks to you.
YOUR CHOICE - SITUATIONAL AWARENESS OR HIGH SOUND ISOLATION
AWARENESS (+)
Hearing protection is needed, but knowing your surroundings and staying aware in emergency situations is key. With a slotted earpiece, you can still hear sounds around you while keeping an ear out for your team. When lives are at stake, you need radio communication that is consistent, efficient, comfortable, and the last thing on your mind.
ISOLATION (-)
Communication is critical. You want every opportunity to reduce potential errors and distracting, if not hazardous, radio feedback. Crowd control, music venues, or anywhere with a lot of moving pieces requires a quality radio earpiece that can do it all.
OPTIONS ARE A DEPARTMENT’S BEST FRIEND
Whether you’re choosing our custom moldable radio earpieces, you’re taking control. For instance, if your job requires acute awareness while you communicate, then you’ve got the perfect earpiece for the job. Or, if you’re tasked with keeping a keen eye on the scene with limited distraction, then our isolation radio earpieces are just what you need. Look at it as the best of both worlds.
HEAR THAT? IT’S SAVINGS
If you’re in any of the service sectors like law enforcement, security, military, government, firefighting, or medical services, then you know the negatives of the “old school” communication options. You go to plug in that clear tube pigtail and realize there’s nothing there. And if it’s not you, it’s someone on your team. They were probably fidgeting with it, trying to make it fit comfortably with no sign of relief. But what’s worse is there’s no replacing the earpiece without re-ordering a custom mold, paying the insane fees, waiting for delivery, and hoping it doesn’t just happen all over again.
You’re probably seeing a theme here. And you’d be correct. Decibullz two-way radio earpieces don’t require the replacement hassle. With their price point, you can afford to keep multiples on hand. Not that you’ll need to, of course. Then there’s how durable they are after experiencing sweat and tons of movement. But accidents will happen. So, if you knock that clear acoustic tube out of your ear and send the earpiece to the ground, stepping on it will only bring about a short delay. You can rinse, re-mold, and re-set your radio earpiece in no time.
SO… AWARENESS OR ISOLATION?
No matter which one you choose, you’re guaranteed to get clear communication, all-day comfort, earpieces that don’t fall out, gear that holds up in extreme environments, and a custom yet quick molding experience.

I’VE USED THESE TYPES OF ACOUSTIC TUBE EARPIECES IN THE PAST. WHY ARE DECIBULLZ ANY BETTER?
For starters, Decibullz radio earpieces aren’t like any custom earpieces you’ve tried before. Aside from not costing an arm and a leg, these radio earpieces are custom moldable, which means they fit better, can be cleaned, reused, and re-molded should anything happen. This all adds up to extreme cost savings for small law enforcement teams to large military divisions.
In the line of work where acoustic tube earpieces are required, we know things are going to get messy, so odds are that earpieces are going to get lost, damaged, or left behind. The good news is, with the low entry point, you can afford to lose a few earpieces and still save money on TCO.
AM I SUPPOSED TO BUY MULTIPLE ONES FOR DIFFERENT SITUATIONS?
The great thing about an easily custom moldable earpiece is the ability to adapt it to just about any device. These are compatible with radio devices from major suppliers like Motorola, Kenwood, Midlands, and the list goes on.
Plus, while traditional custom earpieces require a lot of investment, both time and money wise, they aren’t the easiest to replace, again both time and money wise. With Decibullz radio earpieces, you can keep remolding, keep a spare around, or make the most out of our…
