Intro

Hi guys this is Raghav here from Headphone Zone. If you're someone who just got yourself a brand new in-ear monitor, one of the things that I think you should be thinking about carefully is whether or not you've got the right ear tip for your ears while listening to music. I think the ear tip is an easily over looked part of your listening setup and ear tips come in so many different kinds today that changing the ear tip alone can make a huge difference to the way that you listen to music on your in ear monitor.

Do Eartips Really Make a Difference

One thing you should know is that we've got so many different kinds today and one of the most popular kind of ear tips that people choose is a foam ear tip especially memory foam ear tips from brands like Comply. What a memory foam ear tip does is very very simple it basically uses a material that is activated by your body heat and starts to expand so the way to use it is to really take your tip, swap it out for a comply foam ear tip, squeeze it down, put it inside your ear and detecting your body heat starts to expand taking the exact shape of your inside of your ear canal. So the thought process behind this is pretty simple.When we talk and move our mouth, the ear canal expands and contracts just a little bit so if you pick your finger and you put it inside your ear and you move around you can see that the ear canal is moving around up and down and that's why a foam ear tip can be so much more comfortable as your ear canal moves up and down that it can last you for several hours without causing any fatigue especially when you're listening to music on the go. A foam ear tip also does a great job of isolating the outside noise very very effectively so that the volumes that you're listening to don't have to be sold out to drown out the background.It can be low enough for you to appreciate and enjoy the music for several hours at a stretch some people also can describe the bass becoming a little thicker and a little fuller with the comply foam ear tip and this is usually because the low frequencies are presented just a little bit closer to your ear canal and your your drums because the earphone is now just a couple millimetres deeper than it would normally would be. With a silicone ear tip another kind of eartip which is completely different in its philosophy fromComply is what we call a Spin Fit ear tip. A Spin Fit ear tip also attempts to achieve the same goals which is to give you a much more comfortable listening experience with an earphone going just a little bit deeper into your ear canal and therefore giving you a fuller sounding bass. A Spin Fit ear tip has a rotating or a movable nozzle and the thought process behind this is that our ear canals are not one straight tunnel, it contours just a little bit left and right and a SpinFit stay here to rotate into your ear canal just a little bit more, taking your earphone nozzle just a little bit deeper. Now I'm someone who really enjoys Spin Fit ear tips because I find that it just fits me like a glove. The goal with all ear tips is still the same for it to fit you perfectly, for it to last you long enough without causing any fatigue when you're listening to music and for you to find that it blocks out the outside sound really really well. Ear tips make a difference if you get them right. Absolutely!
