Hi ho, folks. I've been using a pair of Etymotic ER-4p IEMs for the past few of years and have been gradually losing signal in the left monitor due to cable issues (when I twist the bulgy connection where the cable splits into the two monitors, I can temporarily get my sound back until the plastic rights itself). So, if anyone's in the mood to help, I have a couple of questions:
1. The drivers themselves are fine. Can I get these re-cabled (in or shipped from Canada) inexpensively? I suspect they're long out of warranty.
2. I tend to use these headphones almost exclusively on spoken word podcasts and the like while walking in the city, so isolation and long-term comfort are more important to my equation than sound quality. If I was replacing them or getting a stand-in while I wait for them to be re-cabled, is there a cheap alternative that speaks to my usage (again easily available in Canada)?
Thanks very much, folks.
