What's the BEST hearing protection on the market?

[batty1]

I watched my dad become deaf from using chainsaws in the 1950s and 60's and I'm already legally deaf (too much exposure to loud 70's rock music according to the audiologist) so I have to look after what hearing I have left! So its the best muffs I can get [Peltor 10HA or B] plus earplugs as well when operating the muffler modded 880.

Ozzy got half my right ear back in the day.

I desperately need to conserve what little hearing I have left. Between guns, chainsaws, machinery, and wifey, I am now unable to comprehend alot of what is being said(maybe a good thing sometimes). I recently got a Homey 66 Wiz, and even wearing "average" earmuffs, that saw sounds like the muffs are barely doing anything. But ALL saws are loud. Any suggestions? Thanks.

I was driving home with a load of firewood last week & noticed how quiet and smooth my old truck was running, and smiled. 15 miles later it dawned on me that I had just modified my chainsaw muffler & forgot to wear my ear plugs. I imagine by next week sometime my truck won't be running so smooth anymore.
