These are are not canal phones but they are waterproof. I have been tempted to buy a pair to go with my Otterbox encased iPod to use swimming laps, but have strong suspicions they sound crap. H2O headphones (halfway down page)

Sorry- I just realised this is an ancient thread. I sent back 2 pairs of white ER6i's to Etymotic a while back with effectively the same problem (loose conection at jack). They had both had a lot of use in a rather harsh work environment and it showed. I was a bit skeptical that Etymotic...
