wax + custom ear tips?

[wolfie.]

i have a concern, a question.

as we insrt our custom earpieces, do the wax buliduop in thw canals get forced further dowbn the ear canal to the drum?

If you have a lot of ear wax already accumulated in your ear canal, an in-ear monitor can indeed push the wax back toward the inner ear. If you're one of those people, simply flush your ear with an over the counter ear cleaner that contains carbamide peroxide; it gently breaks down wax deposits.

If your ear wax is not excessive, this shouldn't be a concern. Ear wax can actually improve the seal of an IEM, in my experience.
