Yeah sorry
was going for ugly
but did hear they are not the most comfortable either
I guess this is an āif you knowā¦ you know momentā¦ā
Perhaps I donāt have a suitable wardrobe of peacocking Phillipe Plein, gold swans as my bathroom faucets or drive a mansory edition to appreciate the attraction of gold electroplating
For for me - If you are not an arms dealer, Arab Sheikh, Oil Baron or Donald Trumpās stylist itās going to be hard to pull this off without direct unwanted attention be it from thieves, middle aged women with too much plastic surgery, shittalkers or the fashion police.
Plus i would run the risk of my grandmother thinking itās an earing to match her gold bags & shoes so - theft risk all aroundā¦
I Vividly remember the first time I tried e2xr. DAYMM !! It was very grewsome and Terrifying experience. I put it in, and it just violated my ear holes. Nothing went that deep in my ears. And when I took them out , you can understand what I am trying to say. I never touched another etymoic since then. The sound was excellent but canāt justify the fit.
Iāve never had much of an issue with Etys, but I found the ear canal can get irritated/itchy feeling with time. Iām still a big supporter of the ER2XR as an all round great IEM.
But I can completely understand the feeling/concept being much more repulsive to other people, makes sense for sure.
