I just bought the e5c, and I get a really bad ear pain through the ear cartiledge. It seems like the e5c earpiece is too large. But it's only for one of my ears, the left. And i'm known to have really small ears. Is there a workaround for this?

Thanks

Are you using the smallest tips? That's all I can think of...

yup.. i've tried those too.. i wouldn't think it was the tips... because its the size of the earpiece that makes my ear have to expand to conform to it...

What earpeace, are you talking about the the memory chord that goes behind your ear?

Try the Ety4 large yellow foamies, their large diameter and long stalk will elavate the body of the e5's out from the cartilage.

Hmm.. I tried it again on the commute to school (about 30 minutes). It was good, but the line that goes over the ear seems to be very stiff and it pulls your ear quite hard. I don't have very much curvature there so it just seems to fall off. Has anyone else had problem the cord causing pain?

Are you hand-forming the memory wire to conform to your ears? Are you pulling the wire cinch tight to "set" the phones?

Deleted.

I removed the memory foam from the earphones totally.

I'll have to try the shirt clip. Thanks

I experienced this when I first got the E5. After a while you will get used to it to a certain degree, but more importantly, you will find how to set them so they are the most comfortable. After I'd had them for a while I stopped having any pain at all.
