Hearing protector (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

earmuff

(Other definitions for earmuff that I've seen before include "Lug warmer" , "One of a pair for warming the side of the head" , "(One of two) protecting against cold or noise in the hearing organ ..." , "Sound barrier" , "Something worn as a winter warmer" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian and The Times.
