Hey Redwood: You are correct sir! If you have bass, the seal is good. If you need isolation, just put them in your ears with no music. I can sleep and ignore my wife at the same time.

The majority of my headphone listening has always been at bed time. I used a pair of closed Koss phones for 8 years. I switched back to these after having used Ety ER6's for a few months. She just about slapped me, even if the volume of the Koss phones was way, way, down. Total silence and...

$14 plus $8 for shipping= $36 Canadian plus $10 Canadian for UPS to clear a small envelope through customs = $46 Canadian

Sorry to hear they didn't work for you. My perception is exactly the opposite. They only way I could get a seal before was to have that scuba diving vacuum in my ears. This emphasized the bass, reducing the treble. Without that vacuum, I have found a much clearer top end, but now I HAVE TO use...

I just found a listing for foamies for the Er6. Yesterday, there was no info other than price. I just ordered a set for me, me, me! $14 for 6- Not bad if it stops the pain

Ex70's for sure. Quiet, no pain, semi decent sound at low levels. The ER6's will kill you if you lie on your side.

I purchased a set of Radio Shack replacement foamies for my MX400's. They come with two sets, one large and one small. Try and see which work best with your ears.

You are right about the "perfect seal" sound. When you get it right, very few things compare to the sound of these. I had a frustrating day yesterday. Nothing I did allowed me to experience the nirvana I was hoping for.

Hi guys: I have already tried most of the suggestion put forward. My MDR Ex70's work great with a light insertion, but these seem to require the same depth as a proctology exam. Both seem to cause me discomfort. The ER6's are being burned in as we speak. Much thanks, Tom

I just my Er6's yesterday. I am having a terrible time getting these things to seal properly. If I lie down, and don't move they are great. If I try to walk around, the seal is lost, and of course that means no bass. Has anybody else had problems?
