I'm curious about the fit people are experiencing with Apple dual driver in ear monitors. I've heard that people with some ear types aren't able to get the addiems to stay in their ears. I've never used IEMs and my ears are (pardon the image) abnormally waxy. Would it be unlikely that addiems would be usable for me walking around campus or moving my head as someone would working at a desk?

I'll keep this very short. They are very smooth sounding. Treble toned down so not so good for rock but have a magic about them that makes them better than mark 2. I use them with a '89/'90...

Do addiems stay in your ears?

I'm curious about the fit people are experiencing with Apple dual driver in ear monitors. I've heard that people with some ear types aren't able to get the addiems to stay in their ears. I've never used IEMs and my ears are (pardon the image) abnormally waxy. Would it be unlikely that addiems would be usable for me walking around campus or moving my head as someone would working at a desk?
It's possible that they can fall out, you really won't know until you try. If you wear over the ear or even switch tips, you can get a more secure fit as well. I personally use the included tips and wear over the ear (to reduce microphonics). They do not fall out wearing them up or down.

experiment with tips size, although I agree that it is too loose for someone with big canal (like me) - the size is similar to MEE CC51 and FA ceramique
