Have Small Ears and Looking for Earphones?
With the advent of in-ear sound-isolating earphones, you could think that an audiophile’s most basic desires have finally been met. Nowaday’s high-tech toys are capable of producing a fantastic depth of sound at efficient volumes wherever your ears find themselves. The only problem manufacturers have to fix is small ears. I’m not discussing youngster’s ears - that’s for a future article. This article refers to adults who simply happen to have narrower than usual ear canals. Many earphone wearers complain about earphones which won’t slide down sufficiently into the ear canal, or hurt in case they do. Well, the good news is that a group of earphone manufacturers, by intention or accident, now offer a few well-proportioned earphones for music-loving adults. A great option is the Bose QuietComfort 3.
Audio Technica earphones offer some amazing sound quality delivered in a particularly little package. Their beefy 12.5 mm driver produces a wide spectrum of sound, and a strong enough volume. On the other hand, the speakers are made to be as compact as can be managed, and fit very narrow ears comfortably.
Atomic Bass markets a model which includes a dual featured package of micro-sized speakers and brawny bass booms. If you listen to bass-focused music such as hard rock or hip-hop, Atomic Bass is a good company to check out. Atomic Bass came up with an original key to the fitting problem. Atomic Bass’ earphones could be inserted using three potential angles, and can use one of three fittings, the smallest one being nearly the smallest on the market. Three insertion angles combined with three fitting sizes equal nine specific solutions for achieving the most effective fit for any ears. You may want to look into the Denon AH-NC732 Active Noise Canceling Headphones.
The Etymotic ER6i model is not quite the bass-monster that Atomic Bass is, but these earphones’ bass is accurate and the speakers give you a properly balanced presentation for the other parts of the available range. With overall excellent sound coming through comfortably proportioned earphones, most owners will be very pleased with these diminutive jewels.
The Shure Ec2 ear buds include a wide selection of earbud sleeves, and it’s possible that even the narrowest ears may be accommodated with one of these sleeves. Shure has a solid history of providing quality sound equipment to the professional and retail markets, so you could anticipate some superlative sound from these headphones. These earbuds can kick out that performance, and they wrap it in a package that feels lightweight, comfortable, and ideal for narrow ears.
People are not factory-made mechanisms, which is why products like clothing and hats are sold in so many sizes. It naturally follows, then, that earphones ought to be available in a range of sizes to fit anyone who would like exceptional music and a comfortable fit.
