Hi guys,
I was using a set of AT-EC700 and currently they're out of commission with a loose wire that's not feeding sound to the left ear. I'm hoping to have them fixed, but looking into the option of purchasing a new set of earphones.
So as the title suggests, I've got a funny ear hole. Normal earbuds will just fall right out of my left ear hole. It's shaped funny or it's just extra large, so using a clip on type earphone seems like my only option (in fact, even the clip on felt loose on my left ear but stayed on because of the clip). With that said now, do I have many earphone options out there?
A little about my listening habits. I like listening to music with a lot of bass in general, but I do enjoy listening to pop every now and then, but my main music selection is bass heavy. I have considered IEM's, but have read that IEM's often have the issue with the cord/cable transferring sound to your ears since they're quite plugged into your head, and that is an problem for me because I will often be listening to my music at the gym doing cardio.
I love Audio Technica, but have not listened to many other earphones out there, that suit my strange ear problem, as well as my needs in music taste, so I would really appreciate the feedback from you guys who are much more experienced in sound than I am. I've looked at the AT Solid Bass earphones, but I'm not sure if they'll stay in my ear with constant movement.
I suppose my query here is two folded. Does anyone else have this odd problem with an ear hole being particularly large/small that doesn't allow an earphone to stay in the ear and what my options are out there? What are your solutions?
Thanks everyone! Appreciate it!
