Actually, modern hearing-enhancing devices also incorporate dampening... Just so You won't become deaf if someone shouts in the mic while You've got volume to the max and trying to make out a whisper.

This is also used in modern earmuffs that shooters wear, making them capable of hearing their friends/drill instructors/etc without excessive shouting and still being protected from the sound of gunfire.

But in 'Nam? Not very likely!

EDIT: In JA2 description, it is stated that extended ears amplify weak sounds and filter out loud ones.
