Pioneer SE-CLX9 Headphones with Ridiculous Array of Earpieces

Posted by Joel Johnson, October 5, 2007 2:20 PM | permalink

While it's impossible to say if the Pioneer SE-CLX9 are decent headphones or not—they're Japan-only at the moment—the amount of included rubber ear pieces are impressive, to say the least. Some are for comfort, some to change the sound—they're all probably pretty unnecessary.

Changing the shape is probably not unnecessary. I have wanted to change the shape and size of every single pair of ear buds that I have ever used. I'd love to try these out.

I agree Scott. Maybe I have a weird ear shape but my ipod ear buds kill after 30 mins or so and they never fit snug. If i'm exercising they fall out after a while. I think having the option of different shapes is brilliant and I hope other companies realize we don't all have the same dimensions in our ears.

Speaking as someone who owns canalphones that came with 9 different types of buds - only one of those actually fit my ears correctly, and there's a good chance that there's a better fit for me out there.

My brother-in-law bought some ip*d canalphones and they don't fit him at all.
