Guest guest Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 These are off the shelf units that require an earmold locally. They are made by a company called Westone. If any of you have read my experiments I am currently theorizing that my base triggers all have one thing in common. A higher frequency component. S's, wisps, sharp vocal sounds, smacking, etc. Some experiments with filtering specific frequencies showed promise for me. During audio playback of filtered data I felt like it was not going to trigger me. Keep in mind I'm very distraught right now and my main triggers are not really there. Today is the first day I've been at ease since last week. 4 nights with only a handful of hours of sleep. The rest of the time was spent in agony. Ironically as we were looking in the spec sheet for the westone style 42 earplugs I noticed that the main filter component is made by a company called Knowles. Well, I work for IDT and we make audio chips that go into laptops. I've worked with guys from Knowles before on their Digital mic products. The audiologist said that the plugs are just an cyclinder that contains the filter component. It's possible that it can be removed from the plug and replaced with different filters. Time to make some calls and see if different frequency responses can be obtained. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
