Introducing the PRO Impulse Custom Earplugs, the ultimate solution for Australian shooting enthusiasts. These ear plugs feature the innovative PRO Impulse filter, specifically designed to reduce sudden high-volume sounds while preserving normal hearing in all other situations. This advanced filter technology is engineered to respond to sound intensities in real time, making it highly effective for both indoor and outdoor shooting environments. Invest in the PRO Impulse Custom Earplugs and experience unparalleled safety and comfort during your shooting activities.
Responsive and fast acting:
The new PRO Impulse filter has been specially developed to reduce sudden high-volume sounds from being transmitted to the inner ear, giving the wearer protection when they need it while allowing normal hearing at all other times.
Superior noise reduction:
The filter gives a constant noise reduction of approximately 15dB, increasing to a maximum of 33dB when activated by sudden high noise. For higher levels of noise protection, the PRO Impulse can be worn in conjunction with over-ear headsets. According to research, combined hearing protection strategies, like using both earplugs and earmuffs, can reduce noise exposure by up to 20-30 dB in extreme conditions. The custom-made version utilises the same proven design as ACS PRO hearing protection with a discreet and comfortable soft silicone in-ear mould that’s custom-made to fit the wearer.
Compact for ultimate comfort:
Using ear plugs for shooting shouldn’t mean sacrificing your comfort. The small size of the Impulse filters makes them unobtrusive and comfortable to wear, fitting easily under communications headsets or earmuffs where double protection is required.
Developed for military use, the Impulse filter offers users the perfect ear plugs for shooting. These earplugs protect hearing from gunfire, artillery noise and impulse sounds from nail guns, drop hammers and riveting. Designed to allow air to enter the ear, this unique filter technology retains spatiality and sound directionality as required in hunting and combat situations. Ventilated shooting ear plugs Australia have been shown to reduce the discomfort associated with prolonged use in high-pressure environments like shooting ranges.
Unlike other ear plugs for shooting in Australia, this ventilation minimises the occlusion effect and reduces irritation within the ear canal, maximising user comfort and limiting the causes of inflammation and infection.
The Impulse filter has undergone full environmental testing for humidity, hot and cold temperatures, 12-hour comfort, and sandstorms. Fully washable with water and normal detergents, Impulse offers ear protection for shooting in both outdoor and indoor situations. The Impulse filter with custom mould has a constant noise SNR value of 15dB (estimated), suitable for continuous safe use to 100 dB. ANSIIPIL-certified Impulse protection is 33.1 dB maximum.
Please ensure that a noise assessment is carried out on-site before purchasing your hearing protection as it is imperative the correct protection level is used.

Yes, if you participate in water sports and are prone to ear issues. They can make all the difference between an enjoyable hobby and one that leads to pain, hearing problems and worse.
It depends on your needs and budget. Many casual swimmers who don’t have ear issues can make do with off-the-shelf options. However, if you’re prone to ear infections like swimmer’s ear, have grommets (also known as ear tubes) or a ruptured eardrum, you’ll need custom moulded plugs that create a perfect watertight seal and keep your ear canal dry.
Yes – custom plugs can be made to fit any size ear. It’s especially important for children who’ve had grommets fitted to use swim plugs.
Absolutely. Swimmer’s ear happens when water is trapped in your ear canal, so the best solution is to avoid water entering your ear in the first place.
They can. Surfer’s ear, also known as extoses, are bony growths in the outer ear triggered by repeated exposure to cold water. By protecting your ear canal, earplugs can prevent them from forming, or getting worse.
While your custom product has the potential to last indefinitely, we recommend obtaining new ear impressions every 4 years. This is advised because the shape of your ear canals can undergo changes over time.
Swimmers, open water swimmers, surfers, surf instructors, kitesurfers, wind surfers, paddle boarders, wakeboarders, waterskiers, surf kayakers, white water kayakers, surf instructors, coasteering, watersport, SUP and more. They are not suitable for SCUBA diving or FREE diving.
No, some individuals perceive that earplugs impact balance, but it's merely a shift in spatial awareness. Using any type of earplug does not have any physical effects on your balance. Many surfers and open water swimmers use them without issue.
The objective is to achieve a snug, waterproof fit, our Swim Plugs and Pro-Aquaz will generally accomplish this. However, we cannot provide a guarantee due to the anatomical variability in people's ears. Nonetheless, in all scenarios, the flushing effect of water and wind chill will be minimised, and it is this reduction that will aid in preventing Surfers Ear, Swimmer’s ear and ear infections
Aboslutely, if you've encountered surfers ear, dealt with infections, or faced downtime from the water due to surgery or waiting for antibiotics during any water sports, then the answer is a definite YES. Surfboard ≈$700 Wetsuit ≈$400, The Fins ≈$100, and protection against infections & surfers ear? That's PRICELESS!
Yes, we keep your impressions on file for 4 years and within this time you can have as many spare sets made.
Yes, our custom swim and surf plugs are tailor-made and suitable for use in these conditions. However, it is essential to follow the guidance of your specialist, who can determine whether our custom plugs are appropriate for your specific medical condition.
We expect the typical lifetime to be 3 to 4 years although some natural anatomical changes to the ears may require an update sooner.
Please email our reception@earlab.com.au. We can guarantee proper fitting and assess whether any slight adjustments are necessary to ensure they fit accurately. Providing a close-up photo of the plugs in the ear may aid us in diagnosing any fitting issues.
That's because the Evoke's use only a single driver for the range of frequencies. All the other ACS IEMs have at least a bass driver, and a separate treble/ tweeter driver. So therefore the range of the Evokes is not as wide, so they need to compact all the parts in a tiny driver.
The cables ACS uses for IEMs have the 0.78mm variety of 2-pin. Therefore, the cables are interchangeable with other IEM cables that use this spec. However, there is another version of 2-pin connector on the market which has a 0.75mm pin, the ACS cables would not work with these ones. However, prior to ordering the cable for IEMs from ACS, we need to clarify about the position of the socket on the other IEMs. On the ACS IEMs, the socket is slightly recessed into the mould and shaped like the rectangular shape on the end of the cable connector. So if the other IEM’s cable had a cylinder shaped barrel on the 2-pin connector it wouldn’t properly fit into the recession. If the socket on the IEMs is not recessed, then it shouldn’t be a problem. If this explanation is unclear, it might be a good idea to ask client to refer to the banner image of the IEMs on our website or even to get him to take a picture of his IEMs and email them to us.
Anyone who needs a quieter sleep environment. Think shift-workers, people with a partner who snores, and those dealing with barking dogs or traffic noise.
The SleepSound attenuated about 25-27dB. It is a solid earplug and it attenuates about as much as a very good fitting foam plug.
Unlike off-the-shelf foam options, these earplugs are made for comfort – they’re soft, lightweight and fit your ear canal perfectly. That means you can comfortably lie on your side, without irritation. They also won’t fall out of your ear while you sleep – a major complaint for those who use foam earplugs.
While your custom product has the potential to last indefinitely, we recommend obtaining new ear impressions every 4 years. This is advised because the shape of your ear canals can undergo changes over time.
Silicone earplugs generally do not make the ears sweaty because silicone is a breathable material. However, individual experiences may vary.
