[ZOMBiE CyGiG] ranted at 5:14 PM --- Post#113170111147484833

For those who
-finds that they need earphone cushions to add grip between the earphone and your ears becos the earphone is too big or too small
-hate the look and feel of that black fluffy traditional earphone cushion (isit call cushion? i coiled the term...u noe that black covering you put on your earphones)
-finds that the traditional cushions tear easily
-get loose and lost from the earphone
-not much help in adding grip...you earphone still slips off your ears easily
-wants to make your earphone looks unique
-wants confort yet preserve sound quality
-dun wish to spend much

Introducing..... THE DELTA AIR CUSHION!
It is a cushion made of silicone, meaning its soft and comfortable, stylish (remb those iPods silicone protective casing?), extremely flexible and durable. Most important of all, it fits gently at the outer edge of my ear canals, yet my earphone stays firmly there! It wun come off even if i run or jump. Mind you, im using the stock Cresyn iAudio earphone which is reputated not to fit well into most ears. If you can press it in further...It will stick to your ears like superglue, yet its COMFORTABLE.

It cost only SGD 0.90 which is about USD 0.53 per pair! I bought it at Bras Basha's new Popular outlet, inside CD Rama.

There are two sides, one with a big opening and another with small opening. When I tried placing the small opening facing my ear canal, most of the diaphragm is being covered, thus i find the vocals being abit 'blocked out'. Thus i put the bigger opening towards my ear where only a portion of the diaphragm is covered. Now it sounds no different from without cushions. Though its hard to squeese the smaller opening to fit the other end of the earphone.

But there is no website or phone number on the packaging. It only says "Delta Corporation Japan".

This is how they look on my stock Cresyn earphone. Note that i hate that shiny dome thing at the side of my earphone and plucked it off...

The left is where the bigger opening is facing the ear canal side, while on the right is the reverse direction. Note that almost the whole diaphragm is blocked on the right pic and silicone is not really a well sound conductor so the way to put on on the left is preferred.

Compare the Delta Air Cushion with the normal fluffy cushion

Bought it for Singapore $0.90 in CD Rama.
