I dont see the upside to this at all.. you mention the plug cannot be insterted very far in your ear due to the size, mine can be inserted to the depth you need, when the plug expands you have a seal that is better than anything I have heard (or not heard ) before.. the seal is by far better than the stock foamies, the better the seal the better the bass reproduction and clearer your mids and highs, you can listen at low volumes and experience great sound and not have to compete with outside noise.. mine can also be made in the matter of minutes and its quite easy..

I agree that your design is quite optimal for sound reduction and such, and when/if I find that style of foamies I will be making those as well. What yours does not do is significantly increase the soundstage; thus the resonance chmaber. My walls for my foamies are EXTREMELY more rigid then whatever tubes you pull out of the stock yellows. They're a quater inch in diameter. It doesn't matter how much isolation there is, it can't significantly improve anything.

I will extend my "free foamie" offer. I would like 1 person with a E3/E4 and E5. So far I have nc1x for the E4s, so I'd like 1 person with a E3, and another with an E5.

I will take a set for my e3's to test against mine, unless you've already got a taker..

 

[GravY]

so anyone able to try these yet?

I'm on the list for a pair with my e3's, but haven't heard anything from the Duke for a while.

I'd be happy to test them with my e5s.
