ETYMOTIC ER2-XR
Wired reference earphones
Standalone category
Etymotic acoustic research is focused on noise-insulating, in-ear earphones. The ER4 MicroPro Series earbuds were the first earbuds to be marketed with balanced armature technology, which are globally recognized for the accuracy of the sound they produce and serve as a reference for all other earphones. After more than 20 years, these reference quality earbuds continue to be the most chosen tool for serious sound engineers, audiophiles, and musicians.

ETYMOTIC ER2 XR - Wired reference earphones
The new ER2 XR delivers clear, accurate sound with pronounced bass range and high-performance dynamic drivers. The ER2 XR offers Etymotic's renowned isolation with various fittings that provides 35dB+ noise reduction, so you can hear all the details buried in the mix without raising the volume to counteract ambient noise. The ER2XR's smooth frequency response makes it the perfect choice for professionals and audiophiles.
For the headset to have 100% accuracy, the recording of the live performance must produce exactly the same sound on the eardrum as that of the original performance. To achieve this, it is necessary to take into account the acoustic properties of the ear. The acoustic resonance and horn effect of the ear map the audio signal (2700 Hz) coming into the open ear with high-frequency amplification in the same way as the sound heard in the eardrum during normal hearing.
