INAIRSAIR1 (S) - 5 Pairs of Foam Tips - Upgrade your Earphones for Superior Sound & Noise Isolation

I've been a fan of compressible foam earphone tips for the last 10 years, using various types and makes with a trusty pair of Shure in ear monitors (SE525's - fantastic headphones BTW). After purchasing a cheaper pair of headphones for use with my phone (Sennheiser CX 5.00G In-Ear canal Headphones) I decided to try out something other than Shure's own excellent tips (which don't quite fit the Sennheisers) and try INΛIRS AIR3 (M) Earphone Tips that are compatible with the Sennheisers and I've been using them for a couple of months now.There are four criteria that I generally judge headphones by: Audio performance, noise isolation, physical fit and comfort.The tip's audio performance is excellent. When compared to standard tips provided with most in-ear headphones and monitors the INΛIRS certainly enhance any device they are fitted to, which is great if you have a good pair of headphones but can also highlight any weaknesses in cheaper headphone's performance. So while they might make a pair of £15 headphones sound a bit better, they will more likely show up all the weaknesses they have - poor frequency response, harmonics, vibration, cable noise etc, etc. By comparison they will make a good pair of £50 headphones sound brilliant. I've tried the tips with award-winning Sony and Sennheiser headphones in the £50-£75 price range and all sound clearer, brighter, crisper. When fitted with the INΛIRS tips my headphones (apart from the already excellent but 10 year old Shure SE525s) they appear to have a greater dynamic range so some input adjustment might be necessary for headphones whose response is biased towards certain frequencies to get a more balanced output. (e.g. my Sony MDR EX650's bass response needed some reigning in when fitted with these tips, however the Sennheiser CX5.00G needs no adjustment and the tips show off its more balanced and neutral soundstage).The primary reason I use foam tips is to reduce external noise when listening to music or watching video on mobile devices. The noise reduction capabilities of the INΛIRS AIR3 earphone tips are superb across the frequency range making them ideal for use on a daily commute or environments with significant noise pollution. For noise performance reason alone I would recommend purchasing INΛIRS earphone tips however it's important to remember that finding the right one for you might require some experimentation before you find the right size, fit and make for you. Too small a tip and any performance improvements are quickly lost and external noise will not be filtered out. Too large and the extra foam will put unnecessary pressure on the wall of the ear canal quickly making the ear sore as well as making listening for extended periods very tiring. The fitting guides on INΛIRS' website are invaluable for getting the right tips for your headphones. The external diameter of the medium size tip of the INΛIRS AIR3 are ~12.5mm (0.5"). It's also important to keep the tips clean and the earphones clear of skin and earwax for the well-being of your ears as well as the headphone's performance. Earphone tips also have a limited lifespan so they will need to be replaced regularly.The advantage of compressible foam tips is that they can provide a firm yet comfortable grip to the sides of the ear canal making them both secure (i.e. a good fit) and providing a noise free environment. The tapered shape of the AIR3 tips accounts for the natural narrowing of the ear canal which I find makes them very comfortable and great for using for extended periods, particularly because you can listen to music at a lower volume with less background noise.Looking at the tips after 8 weeks of daily use (2+ hours per day) I'd say that they've stood up extremely well. They've been cleaned daily, washed weekly with mild soap and disinfectant and even now are they are still comfortable and providing near total noise reduction. In the end, once you've decided to use custom tips, it comes down to finding a design that is comfortable for you. Out of all the tips I've used over the last 10 years, these INΛIRS AIR3 have proven themselves to be a great buy and I will be buying more tips soon.N.B. I have not been compensated (i.e. I have not been paid or received any free items, gifts, goods, discounts or reimbursements) by Amazon, the manufacturer or the seller for writing this review. The manufacturer does offer a coupon for 50% off the price of earbuds to Amazon reviewers who have purchased this product. I have declined this offer.

I think one thing that needs to be made absolutely clear with foam tips in general from all manufactures is that it's very much trial and error. I cannot believe the top review on here is someone who has clearly stuffed them so far into their ear they needed medical attention to get them removed. I stopped doing this when i was 3 years old!Anyway, these tips are most definitely of the same quality as more expensive brands I've used, if your going to twist, pull, stretch and stuff them in your ear as far as possible then of course they're going to eventually break.Comfort is fantastic and i would suggest you don't need to mould them prior to inserting them, simply ease them into your ear slowly and they will mould to the shape of your ear canal naturally with your body heat.Noise isolation is excellent and again exactly the same as more expensive brands I've used.I will agree what other reviews have mentioned in that the sizing is slightly bigger then other brands so it's maybe worth choosing a size down from what you've ben using. I normally use a medium size but use small with these.You also need to ensure you have checked the compatibility for your buds, I'm using Shure SE535 and they fit perfectly. I've had no issues with the foam tip remaining in the ear when i pull them out after months of use.I've bought these previously (Inairs 3) from a different website so have used them extensively for a long periods and the more expensive Comply too, i cannot honestly say there is any significant difference in what matters, noise isolation, comfort and durability between the two. I'm an audiophile at heart and i notice the smallest differences in my listening experience, i can confirm these provide fantastic listening experience.Buy the correct size, for the correct ear buds and treat them with respect, you won't be disappointed.

Heute sind die INAIRS (S/M/L) kompatibel mit AirPods Pro 2. Generation bei mir eingetroffen und ich habe diese direkt ausprobiert. Grund für die Bestellung war, dass ich zum einen Schaumstoff Ohrstöpsel von meinem vorigen Kopfhörer SONY WF-1000XM5 gewohnt war. Zum anderen hatte ich permanent das Gefühl, dass meine AirPods Pro 2 mir aus den Ohren fallen. Die Rezessionen haben mich dazu verleitet, das hier mal auszuprobieren. Bestellt habe ich das Set in den drei verschiedenen Größen für 16,90 €.Vom Material her erhält man genau das, was in der Artikelbeschreibung steht. Ich kann hier keinerlei Mängel an der Verarbeitung feststellen und die Ohrstöpsel rasten problemlos in die Aufnahme der AirPods Pro ein.Ich habe recht große Ohren, daher habe ich direkt die größte Variante ausprobiert und bin begeistert. Diese Ohrstöpsel passen sich noch besser dem Gehörgang an und sitzen deutlich fester. Aufgrund des etwas festeren Materials sind sie jetzt allerdings deutlich zu spüren. Das Gefühl verschwindet allerdings nach wenigen Minuten. Insgesamt habe ich das Gefühl, dass die Abschirmung jetzt noch besser ist.Der Klang wird hier auch nicht negativ beeinflusst. Insgesamt klingt der Kopfhörer etwas kräftiger, was ich der besseren Abdichtung zuschreibe. Ansonsten finde ich keine negativen Punkte, auch das Problem, dass es beim Telefonieren zu Problemen kommt (wie in einer Rezession beschrieben), konnte ich nicht feststellen.Jetzt muss man schauen, wie es mit der Haltbarkeit aussieht, der Hersteller garantiert nur für einen Monat bei normaler Nutzung, wenn ich den Text auf der Packungsbeilage richtig interpretiere.Abschließend muss ich sagen, dass ich generell die Preise für Ohrstöpsel sehr hoch finde. Aber hier muss man wohl wirklich in den sauren Apfel beißen. Ich werde mir eventuell noch ein Set in der großen Größe zulegen, wenn mich die Haltbarkeit überzeugt. Bis dahin kann ich vorab aber schon eine Empfehlung geben.

Nadat ik de INAIRS op mijn Airpods Pro 2 had gezet had ik direct problemen met de connectie met mijn iPhone 15 Pro. De connectie was wel gemaakt, muziek kon ik gewoon afspelen, maar bij bellen werden de Airpods niet herkend, en kon ik het geluid niet omzetten naar de INAIRS. Nadat ik mijn bestaande tips er weer op had gezet (Comply tips eerste generatie) was het probleem verdwenen. Bij telefoneren worden de Airpods gewoon herkend en wordt er omgeschakeld. Ik heb dit 3 of 4 keer opnieuw geprobeerd, maar steeds weer hetzelfde probleem, bij bellen worden de Airpods met de INAIRS erop niet herkend. Daarnaast vind ik de afdichting ook niet optimaal. Ook hier scoren de Comply tips veel beter. Helaas gaan de Inears dus de prullenbak in en heb ik direct maar de duurdere Comply 2e generatie tips besteld. Helaas kan ik dus deze Inears absoluut niet aanbevelen.

Qualita prezzo molto buono. Confezione molto curata. Materiali buoni
