Shure Foam Sleeves

[fernando]

Going to buy these to improve the isolation on my apple in-ears which are causing great pain to my ears. Worth it?

Also, what size shall I go for....simply the size of sleeve I wear from apple or is there some kind of difference?

Thanks for any help you may be able to provide

If you are talking about the orange/yellow foam sleeves. The will not work!!

Shure only make items for there own headphones.......funnily enough

May I ask the same in regards to the Sony EX-71 sleeves. Are their sizes parallel to Apple's sleeves?

From what I have read, Sony actaully make the in-ear headphones for Apple. I am not sure if it is true.

I wouldn't purchase the Shure tips, because I can not see how they will work on any other headphones.
For example, even certain items Shure make, will not work on all the headphone range, let alone Sony or Apple headphones.

Best bet is just to purchase a pair of Shure E2 headphones. They are going on the internet (eBay) for about £29 brand new, and they are really good investment for that price!!

Let us know how you get on.
