are there any after market sound isolation ear tips for this model? it will also help keep the ear pieces more firmly in my ears.

As for made for this device I can't say yes or no! But after fitting my sons sponge bob gels on to mine they did stay on! From my oppinion I suggest using anyone of the 6 extra gels that come with this device! After some trial and error I found that for my ear I have to use solid small gels! And they stay in and on my ears as long as I need!!! Hope this helps you!!!

Any of the 500 series Comply tips fit. But I don't know if its my ears or my sweat but I tear through them about 1 pair every 2 weeks.

It's been an issue all alone. These tight passive isolation circumaural earphones naturally tend to sound muffled because well...they muffle the sound--that's how they're designed to block out outside sound (the active noise cancellation also helps of course). These purposely leak some sound to allow the drivers to vibrate more freely instead of getting all this resonance and intereference from the trapped sound reflecting and interacting with the whole earpad. Having said that, QC2s are slightly better; but last time I checked, they're also slightly $120 more expensive. Now that slight amount of extra dough, I'm afraid that's slightly too expensive for the most of us. It's been an issue all alone.

I had the same problem with (much, MUCH more expensive) Sennheiser CX400 earbuds - it was awful. I could hear my *hair*, who wants to listen to their hair? Unfortunately, i'm pretty sure all earbuds that have the sound isolation via making full contact between the rubbery part that sits in your ear, and your ear canal itself, are going to conduct some cord noise. No matter what, the cord must be attached in a way that is so integral to the construction that conductivity is a matter of physics. I find these significantly less objectionable than the Sennheisers, in fact I'm not bothered at all (maybe I got used to it?) But with the sound at a decent volume it's hardly noticeable. I really like these (I saw this post when I came looking to buy another pair or two in different colors). So I tried an experiment, on your behalf -- I put the earbuds in my ears, then draped the cord around the back of my neck. I then simulated moving around (hey, I wasn't about to get up off the couch :) by taking the remaining free part of the cord and whipping it around. Not bad, not bad at all. At the resulting length, you'd need to carry your music player approximately at your waist, and with that wrapping strategy it will minimize the cord hitting against things. Bottom line, at the price (plus, doesn't Amazon give you five bucks of free mp3s if you buy them? they did my last pair), go for it, they're better than Sennheisers at three or four times as much money, so ... what the heck, right?

Unfortunately, the ear pads themselves hook under 4 tabs that hold it in place LOOSELY. This means if you turn your head 90 degrees to the noise (say your hi-hats), the sound leaks in quickly and is loud. So, the sound isolation is very poor and you need better to avoid hearing loss. Find another pair.

Fine, if you can keep them from coming out of your ears. I have tries all of the ear pieces and they all slide out. Sound is great when they are all the way in, mediocre when the just hang on the edge of your inner ear.

Hi Tony. My first pair were pretty good. Most constant background noise was filtered out (traffic noise, engine noise in aircraft etc.). I could still hear people speaking although at a lower volume. When friends tried them, they were all quite impressed by the noise cancelling. My second pair weren't as good as the first pair. That said, if you open the ear pieces (they are held together with small screws) you will see a small potentiometer (one in each ear piece) with an adjusting slot. I fiddled with this and noticed it increased/decreased the noise cancelling. If you turn it too far to increase noise cancelling, movement of the headphones causes a clicking sound.

We did not use the ear piece, instead we bought my mother over the head earphones which do stay in place and provided hearing in both ears as opposed to only one. Hope this information helps you.

Noise isolation is excellent, they come with ear tips that have an insulating foam as opposed to simple silicon enclosures and they also do include a carrying bag. It's not of the highest quality but it gets the job done and its kept mine in perfect condition for months now.

The advice I have seen recommends buying a unit for your weakest ear. I suggest you call the folks at CS 10, as they have just released an updated unit.

They will help but they are more tuned for music. Let in a lot of sound but cut down on the harsh frequencies. I would suggest getting regular foam earplugs for that.

I've noticed that the ear pieces sometimes shift in the ear, and if you readjust them or push them in just a little the sound will be heard in both ears again. Hope this is helpful

Chances are anything that's in-ear that creates a good noise-cancelling seal are going to do that. If there's a solid seal you'll get a stethoscope effect when you move the cord. I'd opt for something that's not as sealed, or maybe something with foam tips for the canal instead of rubber like these.Not to mention the cables on these are horrible (I've returned 4 pairs under warranty for the same issue).

Just look at the list at the bottom for these headphones, the "Users who bought this also bought..." list. Any of those tips will work great. I bought the super cheap memory foam ones that come in the three pack with three different sizes and they're awesome, link to those ones below. The comply tips are more expensive but considered higher quality, my friend bought those ones, and likes them as well. http://www.amazon.com/Bluecell-Medium-Eartips-earbuds-earphones/dp/B007BWCDYQ/ref=pd_sim_e_2?ie=UTF8&refRID=0D3SHEJ5FY31YCEH1NN5

I have not use the ear piece. Sound comes out of mic. I am assuming if you use ear piece sound comes out so it. FYI make use all parts are pugged in all the way.

I would give it a solid "decent". I believe I was expecting better, and looked for something else. In the course of trying more expensive Sennheiser, B&W;, Beats models, I came to feel the less than perfect isolation was way more than offset by everything else. Audio quality is fabulous and so is the design and fit and finish. Let me know how you go on this. Ed

Bass response is HIGHLY dependent on how good of a seal there is in your ear. For instance, my preferred tips are modified foam ear plugs as the lows sound incredible.
