Ops-Core AMP FAQ
What is 3D Hear-Through technology?
3D Hear-Through is a special technology that helps you hear sounds around you naturally, even while wearing the headset. It restores and enhances your hearing so you can tell where sounds are coming from, which helps keep you safe and aware of your surroundings. While it lets you hear important sounds, it still protects you from loud, dangerous noises.
Can I wear this headset with a helmet?
Yes, this headset is designed to be used with a headband or mounted directly to a helmet. You can buy an optional Rail Mount Kit that lets you attach the headset to the Ops-Core ARC™ Rails on a helmet. You do not need any tools to switch the headset from the headband to the helmet mount.
What are the optional NFMI earplugs for?
The optional NFMI (Near Field Magnetic Induction) earplugs are for situations with extremely loud noise. They work with an NFMI-enabled headset to provide double hearing protection. This increases the Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) to 34 dB, giving you extra safety in loud environments like indoor ranges. The earplugs are wireless and do not need batteries to work.
What happens if the batteries die?
If the batteries run out, the 3D Hear-Through feature will turn off to save power. However, the headset has fail-safe communication, which means you can still talk and hear through your connected radio system. The headset will give you low battery warnings before it shuts down the hear-through feature.
Is the microphone easy to use?
Yes. The noise-canceling microphone reduces background sounds so your voice can be heard clearly. It can be easily moved and mounted to either the left or the right earcup depending on your preference.
