Earpiece Suggestions

[Mack_357]

What earpiece would y'all suggest I use for the Motorola APX? I heard getting a custom mold earpiece is the way to go.

Are you wanting a listen only to use with your shoulder mic or a dual use for instead of?

If you want an all in one hawk lapel mic is hard to beat, it comes with medium size left/right earpieces that last about a year. Replacements cost ~$2. Listen only I would recommend the fox model. Uses same earpieces, works great. GT carries both the hawk is around $100 and the fox is $50.

I have had good luck with these. Both the listen-only and the lapel mic.

I have an otto red silent earpiece that costs about $40 It's listen only, and I love it. It's not custom molded, but it stays put in my ear until I hit about 14 or 15 hours.

I've never tried anything else, but for the price it's a good way to find out if you want an earpiece.

I use a Tactical Ear Gadgets Hawk Lapel and it works great. I have a few partners that have tried some of the new bluetooth combinations and it has not worked well. I do not use a customer earpiece, and it is comfortable for a 10 hour shift.

Which ever one you go with, take it to a hearing aid shop and get them to custom make you an ear bud. I found out it makes the difference between having an ear piece and using an ear piece.

Tactical Comm. Ind. is what I have (listen only) I've had the Hawk lapel (2-pc) for my motorola xts 5000 & it was awesome. Never had a problem. But where I am now, we have Kenwood pieces of sh_t & the hawk wasn't compatible, even after they said it was with the appropriate adapter. SO I had mine sent back & just stuck with the shoulder mic & listen only piece that attaches to the talk part.
