Noise Blocking Advantage October 21, 2008
In addition to delivering audio superior to my earbuds, these are better than standard ear protection for yard work.
 Perfect October 14, 2008
I found this product perfect. I use them for a long daily commute on a motorcycle. I was skeptical of the claimed Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) but they seal out noise as well as foam earplugs! The sound reproductions is fine to my ears. They aren't cheap, but seem likely to last a long time. I love them and will replace quickly if they ever need it.
 Disappointment... October 7, 2008
I'm not sure what everyone's talking about with these. I bought them based on reviews, and the sound is really disappointing. Could it be I'm doing something wrong? Is there some button or switch I need to flip on these things? Cause the sound is terrible. No bass whatsoever, no matter what the EQ setting on my iPod.
And noise isolating? Again, I don't get it. I thought my ear canals were pretty mainstream up til now, but maybe I have fine grooves which let in ambient sound. I'm going to return them and buy something cheaper and better.
 Etymotic Research ER6i tested.... October 6, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I purchased the ER 6i's to wear on a recent motorcycle trip and on short Saturday morning rides. I'm aware of the damage extended exposure to the decibel levels experienced while riding that can occur and want to avoid it with full plugs rather than ear buds. These plugs, while effective at diminishing ambient noise to a safe level, give only a partial spectrum of frequencies found in music. That which is missing, is the bass. Many tunes with bass solos, seem absolutely quiet during the solos. it's like it isn't on the track. Listening to these plugs while on an airline flight is adequate. Therefore, high ambient noise levels experienced while motorcycling (and probably other noisy activities) seem to over tax the ER's ability to reveal a full musical spectrum.
Great noise blocking September 30, 2008
Once I figured out how to get the earphones all the way into my ear canal without putting too much pressure on the ear drum (which required a certain amount of trial and error) I find that these work better than any of my noise canceling around the ear earphones (Bose and others).
