Our ears don’t all hear sound the same way. Age, ear shape, and hearing damage can influence how we perceive music. That’s why Etymotic gives you the ability to customize your ER series earphones with a variety of dampers. Each damper/filter changes the acoustic resistance inside the earphone, subtly shaping the sound you hear. The result is a personal listening experience that’s tailored to you.
This set includes a 6 pack of your choice of damper type, each with its own sound signature.

• Green (1500 Ohms – Accurate) The most neutral option. Provides precise, accurate sound reproduction true to the original recording. Perfect for critical listeners and reference use.

• Orange (3300 Ohms – Warmer) Adds warmth by slightly softening higher frequencies, creating a smoother, more relaxed listening experience. Ideal for long sessions or those who prefer a gentler tonal balance.

• Red (2200 Ohms – Accuracy + Warmth) Balances the detail of the Green damper with the warmth of the Orange. Great for listeners who want clarity without straying into brightness.

• White (680 Ohms – Increased Detail) Emphasizes detail by slightly lifting higher frequencies. Brings out subtle textures and nuances, making instruments and vocals sound more immediate.

• Brown (1000 Ohms – Detail & Accuracy) A balanced option that highlights both precision and clarity. It delivers accurate sound reproduction while adding just enough detail to bring out subtle nuances, making it a versatile choice for listeners who want the best of both worlds.

• Gray (320 Ohms – Bright) Accentuates higher frequencies for a brighter, more forward sound. Great for listeners who enjoy extra sparkle in vocals and instruments or want added energy in their music.

Why should you change your dampers?
Your earphones don’t have to sound the same forever. By swapping dampers, you can tailor your ER series earphones to match your mood, music, or hearing changes. Whether you want precise accuracy, more warmth, or added detail, these filters give you the flexibility to control your sound.

When to replace: If the volume begins to drop noticeably, or if filters become clogged with earwax or debris, it’s time to switch them out.

What’s Included:
•6 dampers in one color choice

Henry G. ★★★★★

The green filters gave my ER series just the right amount of treble sparkle without any harshness, and swapping them took maybe ten seconds. My ears are definitely not as sensitive as they used to be, so having three tuning options in one pack feels genuinely useful.

Miles ★★★★★

I swapped in the gray filters to tame the treble on my ER4s, and it made a noticeable difference without muddying the mids. Having six in the pack means I can experiment with different earphones and still have backups.

Carter Y. ★★★★★

Swapping in a fresh damper actually brought the highs back on my ER series—I hadn't realized how muffled they'd gotten until the cymbals sounded crisp again. Six in a pack means I can redo both earpieces twice over, which takes the sting out of how fiddly these tiny things are to change.
