ElectricHellfire,

Possibly you didn't understand the question. We are not discussing passive hearing protection (plugs, normal muffs), but active hearing protection (electronic muffs), which would not only allow you to hear the intruder but would actually enhance your hearing capabilities.

Agree that I'd rather be alive & deaf than dead. So would we all. But your comment is not really appropos to the topic.
