@kotetsu131 Exactly.

My mom's an audiologist, and she got me a pair of ER6i's a couple years ago. I pulled them out to listen to at school once, and a couple of my friends complained about how they tried in-ear headphones and found them terrible. I asked them if they put them in "correctly" and they responded: "There's a correct way?".

I showed them how to put them in as you described, and let them all try it out. They were stunned once they used them correctly.

I don't know what the hell people are talking about. I had a pair of these for about two years and they sounded fantastic (and I'm a classical musician so that's saying something). However, you do need to insert them correctly. if you pull up on the top of the ear (pinea, reach over your head) when putting them in this straightens the ear canal and helps them to seal better...

I was really looking for accuracy and crispness for classical music when I bought these, and man did I get it. Amazing.

i brought a pair here in england for £100 and I found them utterly crap. Flimsy and the wires oxidise way too easily. If you rip out wire to a bud you can forget repairing unless you are sh1thot with a soldering iron and heatsink

Avoid these they are not good for walking / running etc as your feet sound pound in your head due to the canal fit for bass.

YUCK
