Hey guys. So I'm planning on attending some concerts soon and I realized that the old hearos I've been keeping in an altoids tin are nowhere to be found. I figure this might be a good time to get some new plugs. I hear that the ones Etys makes that have the same tip as the ER-6 are pretty good, but I also see that there are bunch of different models.
Any recommendations?

So my ER-20s came today. Haven't tried to see how they 'sound' yet, but I'll let you know. I might have to compare them with Hearos at the next concert I go to.
Actually, I saw the Presidents of the United States of America here in Houston the other night and used Hearos at the show. They worked pretty well, I thought, but my friend I was with took hers out halfway through the show because she thought they darkened the sound up too much. Well, she said they made them seem "all quiet" meaning I think the high end was getting drowned out in the bass. Her hearing is already pretty bad anyways (she's been mostly deaf in one ear since birth).
Oh yeah, so with the ER-20, how deep am I supposed to try and insert these things? As I'm doing it now, I can see most of the stem sticking out of my ear. Also, I confess that I got these because I'm trying to assess whether the ER-6 will be comfortable enough to buy. I've never liked IEMs, but my experience only extends to the bud type 'phones like the Panasonic RP-HJE50 and the Marshmallows.
