Excalibur Crossbow Silencers and Sound Dampening
Reducing shot noise and vibration keeps game from spooking before a follow-up shot, and Excalibur sells several dedicated dampening accessories on top of the CeaseFire and R.E.D.S.-equipped packages already built into current models.
These accessories work by absorbing vibration at different points on the crossbow - limbs, string, and stirrup - so the most effective setup usually combines more than one.
Pros
- Multiple dampening points available - limbs, string, and stirrup
- Ex-Act Fit suppressors install with no tools required
- Sound Deadening System addresses noise as a complete four-part kit rather than a single fix
Cons
- Individual suppressors address only one noise source at a time
- Full Sound Deadening System costs more than a single component
Ex-Act Fit suppressors
The Ex-Act Fit suppressor is an adhesive-pad accessory using G2 Truss Dampening Technology to reduce noise by up to 3 dB and vibration by up to 30 percent. It requires no tools to install and is built to be UV- and weather-resistant for long-term outdoor use.
Sound Deadening System: the full package
Excalibur's Sound Deadening System bundles four components - an over-molded rubberized stirrup, Ex-Shox sound dampeners, String Stars, and R.A.V.S. limb silencers - that work together across different parts of the crossbow to cut vibration and noise as a complete system rather than a single add-on.

Bigfoot stirrup: noise reduction plus cold-weather fit
The Bigfoot stirrup is 20 percent larger than Excalibur's standard stirrup, built to accommodate heavier winter boots, and uses an over-molded rubberized finish to cut down stirrup noise at the same time. It solves a fit problem and a noise problem together for cold-weather hunters.
Replacement pads for air brakes and dissipator bars
If your crossbow already has Excalibur's dissipator bars or air brakes installed, replacement pads are sold separately and install in minutes - remove two bolts, swap the old pads, and bolt the new ones on - to keep that vibration reduction working as the pads wear over time.
