Tools and Hardware Reviews of AO Safety/3M Tekk 90534 WorkTunes AM/FM Hearing Protector
Customer Review: Great product initially, wear out in about 8 to 12 months.
Summary: 2 Stars
I have purchased two of these units for use in my wood shop and they work just fine for the price. The analog tunung knob is easily changed by turning the unit off and on. Reception is good, not great in my area (urban). The only real complaint is the lifespan. In both of my units, the same problem occured, the cable between the battery case and headband failed within months of purchase. I have fixed the cable to prolong the life of both units until it simply got too short to solder. In the case of the last pair that died, a cable became crossed and it nearly melted while I was wearing them. I would advise purchasing a different manufacturer, as I will this time.Customer Review: Great product!

These earphones are great. i bought them as a gift for my dad and i was using them the one day using a power sander and they are great. they drowned out all of the noise and the reception was really good. i will definitely buy a pair of these or at least ask my girlfriend to get them for me for my birthday or christmas. Definitely a great buy!!!Customer Review: Hearing Protection Radio
Summary: 4 Stars
Good basic unit. Hearing protection is good. Radio works well. I have no reception problems as I live in a large metro area. A little hard to tune in radio stations. I don't change stations much so this is not a big problem for me. Suggest the digtial display unit if you change stations often.Customer Review: I use these with an FM transmitter, Zune and MP3 player to listen to mp3, audio books and watch mp4 movies.
Summary: 5 Stars
I've been using a pair of these AM/FM Hearing Protectors for over a year now. I work on a flightline and around aircraft shop noise. My AM/FM Hearing Protector was one of the best buys I have ever made. I like talk radio in the morning and old school music the rest of the day. I have a Zune and a cheap little mp3 player that I plug a battery operated (one AA bat)FM transmitter into.
That gives me the option of listening to mp3 music or an audio books or watch an mp4 movie on my zune and transmit the audio to the AM/FM Hearing Protector.
Or I can use the cheap little mp3 player and FM transmitter to transmit and listen to music or audio books on the AM/FM Hearing Protector.
The AM/FM Hearing Protector uses two AA batteries that seem to last two weeks at a time when used 8 hours a day. I left them on over the weekend more than once and came back on Monday morning and they were still playing.
After a year of use I've only had to glue the ear pads back on once. I have to use a piece of duct tape to hold the battery compartment flap on.
After I found all five or six radio stations I liked I marked them off on the shell next to the tuner knob with a white paint maker so they wouldn't be hard to fine. I used a red paint marker to mark off the FM transmitter stations.
When this pair breaks I will not hesitate to buy another pair.
Sometimes cheap low technology is the best technology. Old school AM and FM are still relevant in my book.
Customer Review: Just what I was looking for.

Needed some tunes to make cutting the grass more enjoyable. These drown out the lawn mower noise. These have both AM & FM stations. Perfect. I've seen these same ones in stores for $20 more that here at Amazon. Great deal!!
