What are Silicone Eartips and How do they Fit in Our Ears?

Each silicone rubber eartip is made to fit onto an earbud type of earphone. Most earbuds have a small diameter tube that protrudes from the earpiece and is approximately 6 millimeters in diameter. The silicone rubber eartips are made of a soft synthetic silicone or rubber material, so they can easily be fitted onto the earbud tube.  The eartips resemble the shape of a mushroom and act like a small suction cup to help block out surrounding noise. The silicone rubber Eartips will also help to hold the earphone in place so the earphone remains in position as you move about.

The silicone rubber eartips have a soft pliable feel and they typically snap onto the outer rim of the earbud tube. It sometimes takes pushing the eartip firmly around the outer tube edges to work it into place.

The soft mushroom shaped eartip goes down into the ear canal and creates a snug, yet comfortable fit inside the walls of your ear canal. Some people do not like the feeling of this kind of earpiece in their ear, however most can tolerate an earbud in their ear for many hours without a problem. The silicone rubber ear tips will help to hold the earpiece in place, block-out nearby sounds and allow the sound to resonate well with the walls of your ear canal. A properly fitting eartip will help to ensure that the earphone delivers the full range of the frequencies that are coming from the earbud’s own diaphragm. The rubber ear tip will resonate with your inner ear wall, using part of your ear canal to produce deep bass sound. That is the reason why most people prefer the sound of an earphone that seats deep inside the ear canal. You may have noticed that if you push the earpiece further into your ear, it sometimes sounds better, and that is mainly because you are helping to adjust the eartip so that it transfers the sound to the walls of your ear canal.

We offer three different sizes of eartips, and this makes it possible for most users to adjust the fit for their own ear. The slightest little difference in the ear tip size can make a big difference between the earpiece staying in place and simply just popping back out again. If you have experienced that kind of problem, it can be very frustrating, and often times all you need to do is install a different size eartip to properly fit your ear. You will find that a properly fitted eartip also provides better long-term comfort and sound quality for the earphone being used.
