ER•6 Instructions For Use
To experience the accurate sound reproduction of the ER•6s,
it is important to fit your earphones properly into your ears.
-
For optimal performance and the best bass response,
the eartips must seal in your ear canals.
-
If the eartips supplied with your ER•6 earphones do not fit your ears
comfortably or seal properly, optional
eartips
are available.
-
If one or both earphones stop working or have reduced volume,
change the earphone filter. See Changing
Filters
for detailed instructions.
Eartips
In addition to flanged eartips, ETYMOTIC Isolator earphones are supplied with
disposable foam eartips. Both types provide excellent sound reproduction when
properly inserted. If the earphones seem to lack bass, insert the earplug
deeper into the ear canal to obtain a better seal, or try the foam eartip
option.
