I've had several Ety in-ear monitors over the years. Something about the ER4s seems to result in me losing them, but my HFs (and a very old, no longer sold set) seem to stick around. I strongly recommend getting custom tips once you've got the monitors, unless your ear canals are perfectly round. Mine are very tall oval, and for years I had to choose between snug fit and noise reduction and comfort. Custom tips, all in, will run you $100 plus or minus, and can be used with any of the Ety's with the same profile. I have two sets, have had them for probably six years now. You get great comfort, better bass, better sealing, and overall better sound quality from what's already a very good sounding product.
There will no doubt be people bashing the sound quality of Ety monitors, this being MassDrop. Every headphone and earphone enthusiast I know has at least one set of Etys, even people like me who have three sets of high end full custom earphones. Ety monitors aren't bass-head monitors, but are dead accurate, crisp, and fast. Not bright and grating, but not dull and rolled off. Some days it's exactly the sound I want. And for years, they were the only in ear monitors I used - tried others and kept coming back to the Etys.

EdinNJby any chance, would your "very old" set be a rare hard-to-find ER-6i?
