e t y

any experience w them?

etymotic quite expensive 😦

its only like $40 for etykids

oh i see

and those actually work <:alismirk:230784726615588865>

and how is the sound?

it is 7a/12b

etys isolate super good

on positive side,u can buy used

just get new eartips

theyre single BA so theyre pretty bass light and dont extend well

are etymotic actually active noise cancelling?

no

looking at hf5 and just says "sound isolating"

oh

so it just refers to the tips?

they go deep in your ear like an actual earplug

hmmm couldn't i just buy t2 then and get tips like those

the t2 isnt noise cancelling either

that is not bad option

yes but since it's only the tip that isolates

no

?

the t2 isnt a sealed enclosure

noise cancelling meme is only half useful for headphones anyway

and it doesnt insert as deep

since etys seal against the second bend in your ear

basically giving you an "airlock" inside your ear

so like 2x isolation lol

yeah i have earplugs

that are the same

but just plugs for concerts

wait i have an idea

are you sure those aren't the noise dampening type earplugs

youre probably not sealing those against your second bend

like most people really dont understand how deep etys go

rock zircons are surprisingly good noise isolator too,they have small tip so they go deep

the entire fucking earphone is in your canal

+ they be like 10$

like just the cable sticks out
