STOP WEARING YOUR EARPHONES THE WRONG WAY
Getting the perfect seal also requires finding the correct tip size. Most in-ears come with a few different sizes of tip, as well as different materials like rubbers and foams. Start with the medium size rubber tip. If that doesn't give you a great seal, move down one size to the smaller tip and try that first. Try the largest size last — you'd be surprised, but a smaller tip sometimes gives you the more comfortable seal. If the rubber tips aren't working, try the foam variety. There's a company called Comply that makes excellent foam tips for all different kinds of earbuds and in-ear headphones. So if none of the tips that came in the box work for you, give Comply a shot.
