Editorial Reviews

Product Description:
The ER-6 Isolator earphones provide outstanding sound quality and isolation in a lightweight, compact package. And at less than half the price of ER-4 earphones, they’re an incredible value. Because these earphones were designed to match the acoustic response of the open ear, their response accuracy surpasses that of all other earphones and earbuds in their class.With their 15-20 dB of isolation, the ER-6’s offer more external noise reduction than any other noise-reduction earphone. Why is isolation important? By blocking out ambient sounds, you can hear the full range of today’s digital recordings without having to play them at unnaturally high and potentially unsafe levels. Since you don’t have to boost the volume to overcome external noise, ear-overload distortion is minimized.The ER-6 Isolator earphone system includes:5′ cord with 3.5 mm stereo phone plug;2 double-flanged silicone eartips;2 foam eartips;2 replacement filters;Filter-changing tool;Shirt clip;Pouch.

Customer Reviews

Can’t expect much more by MaxLeanangle
Overall very pleased with performance. As advertised noise reduction is on par with good earplugs. Doesn’t reach level of quiet described in earlier review talking about almost being run over by construction equipment because he couldn’t hear it. Sound reproduction is excellent. Only nit-pick is sound transmitted to ear when wires rub against clothing etc. Not sure how could be resolved, maybe heavier coating on wires? Regardless, I have used in airports, on airplanes and under motorcycle helmet with great results. Have already recommended to friends.

good set of earphones by Vijayant Bhatnagar
I liked the earphones. Sound isolation is quite good. I use them for gym. With ipod earphones, i used to keep my ipod volume to full. But now I keep around 70-80%. Now you can have fairly good idea about the level of isolation that it provides.

Altogether, its a good set. The sound is not as good as professional headphones like Sony MDR 7506 professional.

Best liitle earphones, ever by EZasUgo
I have a drawer full of ear buds ear phones collected on my journey to the ER6’s. Best little earphones ever. They cancel out noise and are just so comfortable. You can sleep with them in, just incredible. Let your search for the perfect earpnones end. Get these………….gym

Great Buds! by Frequent Flyer
I prefer the fit and performance of these earphones over both my Bose and Shure EC3 earphones. Bose has an uncomfortable fit to my ears outside the ear canal with unflexible rubber tips without any noise isolation and I find the Shure alittle too heavy and bulky. These buds are very light with a thinner cord and fit nice and snug but not uncomfortably tight against ear canal. Great sound quality and noise isolation with proper insertion. Small enough I can sleep with them in my ears unlike larger and heavier Bose and Shure earphones. I like the weightless thin cords. Just follow the directions and gently remove appliance by the earphones instead of the cords to preserve integrity of appliance and I anticipate extended longevity from these terrific earphones. Unlike Bose and Shure, these Etymotics clearly label right and left earphones in BOLD initials. A simple but helpful improvement for ease of use. In addition, Etymotics come with earphone filters that allow the user to change them when they may become clogged with wax or dirt build up which diminish sound clarity and quality. Cheaper than Shure, but just as good if not better sound quality. Great value for the price. Seem to be well engineered.
