Using the headphones

Selecting suitable ear adapters for 
optimum fit of the headphones

The perceived sound quality and bass performance of the head-
phones depends to a large extent on their correct fit in the ear.

Pull the ear adapter away from the in-ear sound tunnel.

Mount the new ear adapter to the in-ear sound tunnel. Ensure that 
it locks into place.

Test which ear adapter size gives you the best sound quality and 
the best wearing comfort.

You can choose between 3 different ear adapters in size S, M and L. 
The ear adapters must fit snugly in the ear canal and completely seal 
your ears.
