Received my ER-4Ps yesterday to use with my new PJB-100 (credit card is still warm from over-use).
I have tried both the plastic and foam pieces, but despite achieving what I think is a good seal (i.e. virtually no external sound, a "pop" when releasing the seal) there is something lacking in the ouput.
I know that the response is intended to be flat - this is not the issue. There is little bass to speak of, which is - so I understand - meant to be a strong feature of these pieces. The soundstage also appears limited.
I appreciate from other posts that there may be a "breaking in" phase and that it may take weeks for the full qualities of the set to come through. I also suspect that earwax may be an issue here! (I have started using medicinal oil-based drops to deal with that).
Are there any other issues I should be aware of? Am I possibly one of the unlucky few for whom the standard pieces just won't work their magic?
Thanks in advance
