In response to those who find the ER-4's fit uncomfortable, it is easy to fix this issue by simply trying third party tips. I could barely tolerate the tips included with my ER-4PT (apart from the grey foams and the tri-flange to some extent, the gliders were the worst), so I got my hands on:
- Westone Star Tips (green ones): good isolation, easy to insert and very comfortable, gets the ER-4 to be slightly "funnier sounding"
- Shure Olives (M): supreme isolation, comfortable, requires fiddling like for all foam tips, my favorite tips sonically speaking (very clear sounding with a tiny bass boost over stock tips). These tips just nail it for long haul flights, as I've been flying for 19 hours this week
- Klipsch oval tips: top notch comfort, but I barely use theme
I have yet to try the Comply tips, but I've heard they weren't that good (?).
