I sell CIEMs hard when I hear friends and colleagues starting asking about ANC headphones. Between the superior isolation, lack of need for batteries, longevity, and excellent audio quality, there’s really no contest. I’ve had a pair of Alclair Audio Quad-driver studio reference CIEMs for nearly 7 years, and other than needing to replace the cable once, they’re as good as new. If you can afford them, I highly recommend giving a pair a try. Note: if you live in Minneapolis or Nashville (where Alciair’s offices are), you can go in and they’ll do your impressions for free - no need to visit an audiologist.
