Did you try wearing them over ear? I find that to give a better seal and more secure fit. I'm still debating on keeping my pair as well. Kinda wanna minimize my gear and consolidate to higher and better things :).
^^^Thanks!
Still enjoying and getting to know these 'phones. They are incredible with classical. I can see why some would prefer these over the EX1000 given the bigger bass, lusher mids, and more forgiving treble. Their presentations are completely different too, though I imagine that's the case with the EX 'phones vs. almost every other IEM.
From a usability standpoint, they're very easy to just pop in and out. But in walking around with them I don't find the fit very secure. I think it's because of their weight and shallow fit, they always feel like they're on the precipice of falling out. And I can actually feel them shifting around at times. I have a good seal, using Monster silicons. They do isolate SOME, but not as much as the EX1000. Case in point, when I was at the grocery store with them, I could hear the vocal commands of the automated checkout, which I typically don't hear using other IEMs.
Also, I got a static electricity shock from them. They would have become my definite work IEM if not for that. I will give them more time of course but I'm not sure I'll end up keeping them.
