Description

The ER3XR is a single driver in-ear monitor (IEM) known for its high sensitivity. Its anodized aluminum shell is CNC machined to precise tolerances, resulting in a slim and lightweight design. The use of a single balanced armature (BA) driver in the ER3XR provides accurate audio reproduction without the complexity of crossovers, while the included user-replaceable cable adds to its convenience. Etymotic IEMs are widely recognized for their outstanding passive noise isolation, which can reduce outside noise by 35-42 dB depending on the eartips used and their depth of insertion. This level of isolation is higher compared to most custom IEMs that provide around 25-28dB attenuation and foam earplugs that provide up to 32dB reduction. The ER3XR is an ideal choice for audiophiles and budget-conscious consumers who are looking for easy-to-drive IEMs that provide enhanced bass compared to the neutral ER3SE. Both ER3 models, the ER3SE and ER3XR, use the same high-sensitivity, low-impedance balanced armature (BA) driver, meaning no amplifier is required. The main difference between the two models is their tuning, with the ER3SE having a flat frequency response while the ER3XR offers an emphasized bass that adds 1-2dB to the mid-bass and 3-4dB to the sub-bass. The ER3SE is suitable for audio creators and musicians who want precise and neutral audio reproduction, as well as for prosumers who prefer to hear their music as it was recorded. On the other hand, the ER3XR is favored by those who want to enjoy the extra bass in their music while maintaining balance. Etymotic’s target frequency response graph aims for a “perceptibly flat” frequency response. This requires accounting for the resonance inside the average ear canal and the need for higher SPL in the 2-5k region (lower treble) to compensate. The resulting “hump” in the frequency response graph helps ensure that the eardrums perceive a flat frequency response for all frequencies.

ER3XR Extended Response

Renowned Sound With Low End Enhancement

Over 30 years ago, Etymotic invented noise-isolating, in-ear earphones. Etymotic’s original design, developed for auditory research and hearing testing, used balanced-armature receivers and established these speakers as the gold standard for high-definition, in-ear earphones.

Enhanced and extended bass response Sleek, precision machined metal bodies High performance balanced armature micro drivers Detachable, reinforced 4 ft cables with 3.5mm gold plated stereo plug and MMCX connectors

Why Etymotic?

Etymotic designs products to measure, improve and protect hearing, and enhance the listening experience of music lovers everywhere. Audio engineers, musicians and audiologists at Etymotic have generated over 100 patents issued and pending.

Why ER3XR Extended Response?

Utilizing the balanced armature drivers regarded as the gold standard for high definition, in-ear earphones, ER3 series earphones are tuned to extremely tight tolerance specs for the most accurate sound reproduction on the market. The ER3XR is designed for listeners who value the accuracy and noise isolation for which Etymotic is known but prefer a more robust presence in the lower range.

The new ER3XR incorporates significant cosmetic and functional improvements, from sleek, precision machined metal bodies to the reinforced, user-replaceable detachable cable. A must have for bass loving audiophiles and consumers.

Specifications High performance, balanced-armature micro drivers 20Hz-16kHz Frequency Response 35-42dB Noise Isolation Detachable 4 ft cable with MMCX connectors 120 dB Max Output Impedance 22 ohms

Detachable, Reinforced Cables

To detach the cables, pull the cable connector away from the earphone body. Pull straight out-Do Not Twist.

To attach the cables, align the key tab on the cable connector with the notch in the body of the earphone. Press together until it snaps in place

Proper Insertion

Sound quality, full bass response and noise isolation all depend on a good eartip seal in the ear canal. While pulling up and out on the back of the ear carefully insert the earphone. Twist the earphone into the ear canal while inserting until outside noise is blocked out.
