Walker’s Introduces the ATACS Sport Earbuds
News Briefs - Nov/Dec 2021
Increasingly, professional shooters, recreational shooters, and hunters are favoring the comfort and digital control of earbud-style sound-management systems to protect their hearing and to amplify and discern ambient sound. Although earbuds perform these tasks admirably, fitment and security can vary between shooters—especially during high-activity, high-mobility scenarios such as competition shooting and hunting.
The all-new ATACS Sport Earbuds from Walker’s address these challenges by incorporating a dual-retention system into a sophisticated and ergonomic platform. Since shooters come in all shapes and sizes, Walker’s engineers set out to develop an earbud system that would work for everyone. They did this by incorporating soft and flexible ear hooks and a behind-the-neck retention strap into a freshly designed earbud chassis. This unitized retention system, combined with multi-sized foam ear tips, means the ATACS Sport Earbuds are comfortable to wear under any condition and will remain in place even during high mobility activities.
Beyond the comfort and ergonomic features, the ATACS Sport Earbuds include the latest in sound-suppression/enhancement technology and operational control.
Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity, for example, pairs the ATACS Sport Earbuds to your phone via the Walker’s LINK 2.0 app, providing remote control of the listening mode settings (universal, clear voice, power boost, and high-frequency boost) as well as auto shutoff times (off, 2, 4, and 6 hours), volume control, battery level, ambient mute, and social media links. The new ATACS Sport Earbuds come with three different-size foam ear tips and a USB-C charging cable to deliver up to 7.5 hours of battery life per charge. (gsmoutdoors.com)
