I recently got a pair of MSA Sordin Supreme Pro X hearing protectors. I also got the gel ear cups and a pair of cotton covers.

Does anyone know if you are supposed to keep the foam liner underneath the ear cup when using the cotton covers? I can’t get them on unless I take the foam liner out.

I've got the same set of ear pro with the silicone ear cups but I don't know what cotton covers you're talking about. Is it an MSA accessory or is it from some other manufacturer?

Yes, they look like a hair net.





Do I need to have these foam pieces underneath?

MSA Cotton Cover

I couldn't buy them from that vendor because their S&H calculator wanted $40, I ended up buying mine from a British vendor and shipping it to the US.

Just use the gel seals, way more comfortable than the standard ear seals.

I would not be surprised if it lowered the ratings if you add the covers on top of the regular seals. As far as using the foam inside, I've never used a pair of comms with them so I would assume you don't need them.
 
Re: MSA Sordin Cotton Covers

I am using the gel seals. There has been a few threads over time where people asked what would be a good ear protector to buy. A lot of people said that the MSA Sordin Supreme Pro X with the gel seal and cotton cover. I wanted to try it out.
