    Best IEM's Battle!

    So you had them in as I said? No sight of black in the mirror? If that's true you most likely have the proper seal, and thus what I'm saying is irrelevant. PLEASE NOTE a good seal with etys is NOT intuitive. I always thought my seal was right and had no doubt about it till I found out that...

    Does the ER4P improve over time? i certainly hope so..

    Etys STICKING OUT of your ears is a clear example of having a bad seal! read this several times: How do you know if you have a good seal? Look into the mirror, you should see only red and blue cable connectors and the cable, the black thing should be inserted in the ear and should NOT be...
