New Earphones - ER4
Ah finally got myself a new pair of earphones after my old ones… broke….. cause of an …accident …. involving a family member dipping them in a cup of juice… Well I decided to might as well go for the later model in the same brand while I’m at it. The later version, Etymotic ER4P,was currently “80% off” according to the seller - sounded like a good deal.
Very surprised I managed to find them so cheap These were way better than what I had (and I thought those were as good as it gets!). I see a few screenshots with some rather weird blue and red colors - but mine fortunately came in black (wouldn’t want to be caught wearing blue and red earphones lol). Comes in a fancy box with about 10 replacement flanges (part of the earphone that goes in your ear), 4 replacement filters (for if the earphones become… clogged), rotatable clip for the wire, free case, and converter from the mini-jack to a regular. Sound is great - although bass is a little low (but then you don’t want something in your ears/head to be booming anyways ), but the noise-blocking is awesome. You seriously cannot hear much besides what’s coming from the earphones. I couldn’t hear the guy talking right in front of me, right to me, while I had them on. The build is also pretty strong - wire is thicker and stronger than what I usually see - looks more like a powercord - but it’s not heavy at all, light as usual (how can you wear earphones that drag you down anyways?). Very impressed - can’t believe I got them so cheap. I imagine they must be usually around $100 when not onsale.
