In the ear ANR

I have seen at least one in the ear "head set". I was wondering if any
one has tried them with a cheap passive hearing protector like the ones
used for shooting and things like that. The reason I ask is I know some
shooters prefer, plugs and some prefer headsets, and some like to use
both. Well I tried both the other day, not while shooting, and with
just the ear plugs or just the headset, you can still hear things ok.
But with both I could barely hear anything. Seems like that might be
the ultimate solution for flying. While gun fire is pretty loud, given
the *continuous* drone of an airplane engine, the engine noise is
probably much worse.

I haven't tried the in-ear sets, but I'm content with my ANR set which seems
to do a very adequate job of reducing engine noise to a comfortable level.
