Fitment problems for my Super.Fi 5EB's

[captian73]

i got my super.fi's this morning , and i've spent all morning trying to keep these in my ears, with no success.

i've tried the bigger and small tips, nothing, i've tried shifting them around so the cable is facing down or at 9:00 , and that's no better.

no matter what i do they just ease out of my ears. they remind me of the Bose Triport IE's.

help and any advice please

another thing, how long do they take to burn in?

i have to say that for the toime they are in my ears, they do sound fabulous

try the bi-flanges or the foamies too. And remember, you do have to wrap them kind of tightly behind your ear. I can't show a pic but I'll try to explain this. After you wrap the memory wire behind your ear, press the wire with your thumb from behind your ear against the body of the earphone. That way they stay a little tighter. I'll try to post a pic if that really has no help at all, but remember I only have super.fi 3's so I might not be of any help.

the wire advice has helped a little. the foamies are o.k. but there's no perfect solution. thanks for the tip though

anyone know about burn in time for these?

40 hours for cable
200 hours for driver unit.
the overwhelming bass should clear up by 150 hours and stabilize by 200 hours.
