Ear plug/monitor conversion

[Jimryan]

Afternoon all,

Just a thought, I recently got some of the custom moulded earplugs. Got them from my local hospital, free casting, they keep hold of the moulds, make them and invoice you at a later date (though I still haven't received an invoice) and apparently it's something like £25 an ear. Anyway, I was wondering, is there a way of converting these into monitors? I remember reason something about this years and years ago, but wondered if there was a kit or something similar?

Cheers,

James

It depends on the sizing of the filters and the IEM you want to use. For example, these - http://www.acscustom.com/uk/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=38&Itemid=48 - fit in place of the standard filters. Without knowing what filters you are using, I could only say proceed with caution because whatever IEM you use may not fit.

I use Elacin ER15 and have the monitors for it. Not cheap but very effective. Now I just need a wireless unit to replace the cable, which is as short as money is at the moment :/
