My friend said it doesnt help at all.

you need to be burnt in psychologically... which really just means getting used to the sound. it took me a week before i actually could hear the difference between the E3c's and the apple stock buds. and when i say a week, i mean casually listening to them and not playing my ipod 24/7 for the E3c's to "open up".

THANK YOU FOR SAYING THAT!! When I first got my ER-6is I could harly tell the difference between them and my Apple In Ear earphones. Then last weekend I went tubing with my sons and did not want to risk ruining my Etys so I used my Apples. The difference was huge.

canalphones dont really have the "burn-in" effect, though they do tend to sound a little better after some use. but the difference is so small i doubt you'll notice it.

fr4c: actually, the e2c uses dynamic drivers, so it does change a bit.

and of course you need to burn the e3c's in, it'll sound 1000% sweeter and more fun with the cables burned in!!!11&one
