The design of the Etymotic hf2 is fairly standard for a noise-isolating set. One thing to note, though, is that these go even further into the ear than many similar models. They come with three types of ear fittings: two sizes of triple-flange tips and one set of extra-long foam tips. Less

Pros Beautiful sound, good choice of earplugs, thoughtful design
Cons No volume control, expensive (for the hobbyist), for $200 an extension cord would be nice.
Recommended it? Yes
