Go
through steps above trying all sizes at first. Many can use more than
one size and your left ear may take a different size than your right. ‘Walk’
Acoustibuds into the ear with an up-down wiggle motion, do not push straight in
like conventional in-ear buds. Due to the nature of the design, this technique
helps to improve overall contact of the closely spaced fins within the ear and
avoids hang ups on the way in. Installed as intended, Acoustibuds have a
'cushy' feel different than any other earphone because the contact is spread
out over more area. This is what helps keep your earphones secure, comfortable
and in the best position for audio. Ears really don’t come in small, medium and large. The shape and path of your
ear canal and the surrounding area is quite unique and often not related to
your body size or gender. If you have difficulty with fitting at first it's
likely because of the installation technique needed for your unique ear shape.
An effective alternate technique is to take one hand, put it over your head and
grab the top of your ear pulling it slightly upward. Put Acoustibuds in the ear
with the other hand as described. This essentially tensions the ear and holds
it still during installation.
Your
ear canal may go in a direction you did not anticipate. Using a cotton swab is
a helpful way to determine which way your ear canal goes if you suspect the tip
of the Acoustibuds is not aimed in the best direction. This is why the Acoustibuds
tip is angled. Try with the tip angled down to start. Reposition angled left,
right or up if this improves the fit. No matter what installation technique you try, Acoustibuds has no rigid center
to poke your ear so don’t be concerned. Generally speaking, the larger the size
you use the more sound isolation you will get and the more pronounced the bass
will be.
Turn the volume all the way
down at first and then increase to a safe and comfortable listening level.
Experiment with different EQ settings (on most iPods) to compliment the
improved fit. Do all this and if you are like most of our customer you will be
amazed with the improved audio quality. Please heed the warnings shown. Portable
electronic devices are a distraction. Do not use in areas where there is
traffic.
