- Why Bulletproof Zone?
The Silynx CLARUS VIP COVERT is a compact, lightweight in-ear tactical headset system built for covert security and communication missions. Weighing 70 g as a complete headset and 5 g at the earbud, the system is designed to be worn discreetly under clothing, with exposed components styled to resemble a standard civilian mobile phone headset. The CLARUS VIP COVERT is available in Black.
Built for Covert Operations
The CLARUS VIP COVERT keeps the controller and radio device concealed beneath clothing while the visible earbud mimics the look of an everyday consumer headset, with no boom microphone and no tactical hardware in plain sight. For operators who need to communicate without drawing attention, this design removes a common visual indicator of professional radio use. The system provides no phone functionality, so the covert appearance is purely operational cover, not a dual-use consumer device.
Clear Communication Without a Boom Mic
The CLARUS VIP COVERT uses Silynx's "Talking from the Ear" microphone technology, which captures the user's inner auditory echo directly from the ear canal to transmit voice without a traditional boom or lapel microphone. The headset provides both impulse and steady-state noise protection, allowing communication in high-noise environments. When connected to a Clarus control box (sold separately), the system also enables enhanced hearing and natural sound localization, supporting full situational awareness during active operations.
Modular Radio Compatibility
The CLARUS VIP COVERT includes interchangeable radio connection leads, so the headset connects to a wide range of communication devices without replacing the headset or controller. Only the cable changes when the radio changes. The system supports wired Push-to-Talk operation and wireless PTT control via the included key-fob style PTT device. The headset side uses a Quick Disconnect (QDC) connector, and the system is confirmed compatible with the Clarus I and Clarus II control boxes.

Who This Is For and Isn't
The CLARUS VIP COVERT suits covert security operators, plainclothes law enforcement, and close-protection professionals who need discreet radio communication in environments where visible tactical gear would compromise their cover. The system is well matched to single-radio operations using a Clarus I or Clarus II control box.
The CLARUS VIP COVERT is not a consumer phone headset and provides no phone functionality. Enhanced hearing and natural sound localization require a Clarus control box, which is sold separately and not included in this system configuration. Specific NRR attenuation figures are not stated for this product; buyers requiring a rated NRR value should review other Silynx headset models.

The Bulletproof Zone Promise
When you buy body armor, you're buying your safety. We don't take that lightly. Here's what every order from Bulletproof Zone includes.
1. Authorized dealer of every brand we carry
Every plate, vest, and carrier we ship comes from the manufacturer directly to our warehouse. We don't sell gray-market product, surplus, or returns. That means factory-fresh stock, the full manufacturer warranty, and real after-sale support — the kind only an authorized dealer can offer.
We maintain authorized-dealer relationships with America's leading body armor brands, including Spartan Armor Systems, AR500 Armor, RMA Defense, Shellback Tactical, Caliber Armor, DFNDR Armor, Protection Group Denmark, BulletSafe, BulletBlocker, and over 40 more.
2. Best price, guaranteed
If you find a lower price at another authorized dealer of the same product within six months of your purchase, we'll refund the difference.
Why the "authorized dealer" requirement? Because gray-market and surplus armor may not be genuine, may have a compromised supply chain, and almost never comes with a manufacturer warranty. We won't price-match against products that may not actually protect you.
3. Free fitment consultation
Body armor only protects you if it fits. Email us a photo and your measurements before you order, and one of our specialists will help you size your carrier and plates correctly — at no charge, no obligation.
4. Trusted by thousands of customers
Bulletproof Zone has been a trusted authorized dealer of America's leading body armor manufacturers for over five years. We have over 4,000 verified Trustpilot reviews from real customers across all 50 states.
