The Etymotic ER6 Isolator earphones are designed to be placed inside the ear canal and offer excellent noise isolation with unparalleled clarity, meaning PSP owners can completely immerse themselves in games and movies without having to worry about external noise. The ER-6 earphones are especially suited to loud environments such as the daily commute or an aircraft cabin, delivering crisp and clear sound without the need for excessive volume. The incredible accuracy of the ER-6 Isolator earphones allows PSP owners to experience games and movies exactly as the studio intended with screeching tyres, roaring engines, gunshots and even footsteps delivered with astonishing distinction.

But these, make sure that all you hear is the loud sound, as close as possible to your eardrums, making sure that you will never hear a normal tone of voice ever again (without the hearing aids that is). They are meant to act as suction cups. So the sound will not escape anywhere else and go straight into your ears. I would not use them if they were given to me for free."
Please Solarflare, can you back this up? If so i think it is iportant for you to link to the webpage where we can find this information. This is a serious accusation. And i dont mean against a company or another entity, but concerning me is the fact that these can cause hearing loss because the sound vibrations [sound itself] cannot leave the ear canal normally? If so, and you already posted this as a fact i think you have an obligation to at least post a link to this information. I may disagree with someone here about something or even have an argument, but i would never want to cause harm to another person unless they like slept with my wife or something, so if this can cause harm to all the users here who might use them, please.. i feel *someone* has an obligation to post a link to these facts so we can educate ourselves and protect our precious hearing.
Do not mean to come across as this or that, but it sounds warranted to me-
Actually these headphones and all in ear headphones can save your hearing, because they isolate sound resulting in the user being able to keep the volume at a lower level for you to be able to hear, this is coming for someone who has djed for the last ten years using "regular" headphones and has progressively had hearing loss, In ear monitors have saved my hearing.
