Does anyone make a set that will fit under a helmet?

These will be released at the upcoming Shot Show. They are supposed to blow all others out of the water including Sordins. I can't wait to get a pair.
When I spoke to the LE Rep he said everything about them is better, No clipping of the sound or voices. It's the big secret for the Shot Show. He didn't even know the street price. I told him I would take a pair any way.
A lttle bit of a drift here...
A few posts ago "NRR" was mentioned. The main reason I haven't switched to electronic muffs is the typically lower NRR. My non-electronic muffs are in the 29-31 range...I don't remember for sure. Most of the electronic ones I see are only around 19.
I sometimes use plugs and muffs... but doesn't that negate the advantages of electronic muffs?
Isn't it better to have the higher NRR?
My use is strictly for the square range and or competition.

The "cheap" electronic muffs are typically in the ~19dB range. the better ones are in the mid-20's. If you take some good Howard Leight Max-33 ear plugs and in my current case Peltor 7's, and turn the volume up you will hear range commands and conversations easily while still maintaining sound suppression for your shooting or any close discharges.
At your house, it's a good idea to put the electronic muffs next to your defensive firearm because you can turn up the volume and hear things you would otherwise miss.
