Re: [ST] Portable Amplification (long)



STeve,

I've tried those, too.  Where did you get yours made?  Mine were made by 
EAR and have never fit properly.  They won't seal, so I get wind noise 
and music noise.  If I wear them at my desk and especially if I push and 
hold tham "in" they seal and sound quite good.  That just doesn't work 
on a bike.
