They work but you have to keep putting them back on they slip off easily

These things are a life saver. My westone w20 didn't have any guides and they were driving me crazy. These guides fit perfect.

As a universal fit, it is almost guaranteed they won't look pretty or neat for your earphones. But, I am surprised these turn out to be much better than IEM style over the ear all in one cables with hooks built to the ends. It's probably not by design, rather a coincidence. The reason is exactly why they don't look pretty. The hooks can only cover the cables, leaving the earbuds hanging so that there is a bit of wiggle room between the earbud and the hook. That small amount of wiggle room makes the earbuds more stable in ear canals, because it releases the tension from the hooks and the buds won't move immediately along with the hooks. As a result, the earbuds can better stay inside. Compared with most IEM cables where the hooks are mostly slippery plastic, these silicone hooks are wider and kind of a little bit sticky so they also stay behind ears more firmly. These small differences actually make wearing earbuds much easier and I find myself don't need to adjust as often as before. I know it's not true, somehow I found the sound become more pleasant. In the picture is a pair of Sony XBA-N1 with a 16 core cable. The cable is obviously too wide and I used some thin fishing string to tie it up. Not pretty but works perfect.

I would have loved to give them 4 stars for doing a pretty good job, but the skin behind my ears says that they rate 1 star because the mold seam gets more and more aggressive the longer you wear them. I'm going to take something real sharp and see how many I accidentally mess up while trying to slice it off. I'm probably also going to slightly shorten the forward overhang so that maybe my left ear can have enough slack to stay fully inserted. If the seam area is still a problem after modification I'm going to downgrade this rating and go hunt for something else.

The wire covers feel good on the skin and do a decent job holding the wires (the opening is on the side not the back) but they still manage to work free when manipulated. Would like them a little more if they stayed on a bit better.
