etymotics-custom-fit-earbud-program

Etymotic takes things seriously. They’ve started an earbud customization program that allows you to create impressions of your ear canal that translate into perfectly fitted earbuds. Considering most earbuds come with either a) nothing to fit them properly at all (looking at you, Apple) or b) a little rubber nubs that look vaguely sexual, this is a big step in the right direction. Custom fitted earbuds give you the benefits of greater sound isolation and therefore better audio quality. It should be noted that they will do nothing to improve the audio quality of say, Nickelback, which will always be ear rape.

Unzip your coat and have some mulled wine on the house—you’ve arrived at your final gifting destination: The Holiday Gift Guide. It’s like your friendly neighborhood one-stop holiday shop, except instead of balsa wood ornaments, ours is packed with thoughtful gifts for everyone on your list. Future heirlooms, small-but-significant stocking stuffers, and gear for getting out there (or staying in)—are all right here. There’s no music playing in the background though, so you’ll just have to hum Bing Crosby while you click around instead.
