NO! They simply reduce the outside noise level. They have a noise reduction rating (NRR) of 25 decibels. I would assume that you would be unable to hear noises which are softer than 25 decibels but you can certainly hear about anything you need to hear when operating your tractor.

I can, for example, still hear the difference of my box blade making contact with high spots in my drive or not. I can hear my mower lug down when I hit an especially heavy spot of growth. Sadly, I can also tell you from personal experience that I can hear my blades hitting a stone or root and can even recall the 'whoomp' sound when my flannel shirt fell off my tractor and went under the mower. /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif

I would highly recommend them. I now use them for not only tractoring but with a lot of power equipment as well. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Peltor also makes the Alerts which use adaptive noise reduction to allow you to hear soft sounds while blocking the loud stuff

BTW, nice radio installation!

Now that's a really cool set up. Good sound direction, and the cut off is a great idea. Thanks for sharing, John

djh1121: Your sound system looks awesome! By the way where did you get your canopy. I have been looking for one like that. I bought a cloth one from rural king, but when I pulled out of the barn. It blew up and looked like Mary Poppins???? or something like that. Let me know please, thanks

Jason, I have just the music for you I made it as a joke for a friend when we picked up my new Kubota. How about a CD that plays only the theme from Green Acres over and over again. G.

Thanks... The canopy came from the dealer, don't remember the cost, but it was higher then the fiberglass. I like the diamond plate because it you happen to hang a limb or something it will give unlike the fiberglass.
