Hi guys. I am seeking an IEM for portable and office use, but my ears seem to be particularly fussy in terms of fit and comfort. I have tried various in-ears, including the Westone UM2 (which are meant to be amonst the most comfortable) but they did not work out too well - short Comply tips and they did not sound great; long Comply tips sounded good but really hurt.
I am currently using a pair of Sony MDR-EX81 earphones which are amongst the few which I find reasonable comfortable - I believe these are termed "shallow inserting" IEMs?
I am looking at the Jays range at the moment - the Q-jays very smal (and potentially very comfortable), but are quite a bit more than I had hoped to spend. I am considering the D-jays and S-jays too, though S-jays seem perhaps a bit large.
Are there any other shallow-inserting IEMs you could suggest for good comfort and an upgrade to the EX81? Alternatives I am considering are:
- Philips SHE9800
- Klipsch Custom-2
- Head-Direct RE1
Cheers
