I never mentioned any models, im talking about general design of IEMs. They have to seal your earcanal without making pressure build-up, no? You can put them on fast? Good for you. I can for only my other ear. And practise also plays a role. If you read impressions here, you find that IEMs are definetly for everyone. Many people have problems with making proper seal. If its either because lack of practise or due to ear canal shape, I dont know. More you insert them though, faster you can insert them, probaply very fast too without actually thinking what you are doing.
Are you saying that im wrong on this account? If so, then please tell me how, I am always willing to learn more and fix my views.
Note, if you are talking about IEMs with earmolds, then Im most likely wrong, but those arent IEMs I talk about nor have much interest on either. They probaply are comfy and easy to insert, (hell, they are following the shape of your ear afterall) but I am talking about affordable headphones and IEMs, something you can buy and plug'n'play. Something in the price range with headphones mentioned in this thread. You are talking about the fence when im talking about fence-pole?

I stand corrected. Clamping force can sometimes be helped by slight bending, and sweating is mostly a problem with (p)leather pads that doesnt allow the skin to breath properly. Latter isnt definetly fun... But for 12 hour gaming marathon I'd still rather have pillowy velvet circumaular headphone than plug stuffed against the thin and fragile skin of my earcanals. Again, speaking of general IEMs.
Thank you. You just made my point for me. You have not owned either of the products I've discussed but you're speaking about them as if you're an authority on them. The ER-6i has an entirely different design from our more expensive products. The d-Jays are similar in their bulbous design and use an ear tip design that isn't known to be all that comfortable. You've experienced a couple of Saturn models and are telling people what to expect from a Mercedes. |

We get loads of comments from people who say the various traditional headphones they've owned are uncomfortable after a couple hours of use and, worse, often are associated with discomforting sweat. |
