How to prevent sweat from getting inside a cable socket

Some musicians will sweat a little more than others and this can potentially cause shorts in the cables.  Here is a quick tip on how to help prevent that from happening.
 
 
What you will need:
            - Hard as Nails Clear nail polish
 
 
The Cable Bifurcation
 
 
Take the clear nail polish and apply a small amount to the area around the cable bifurcation.  Use just enough to create a seal.  You may need to do this more than once throughout the life of the cable.

Key Facts of Custom In-ears

My name is Joy Bastow, owner and ear mold specialist of Let’s Talk Earz. Through my years of fitting and selling custom in-ear monitors I have learned several key facts that seem to happen to most musicians going in-ears.
 
 
1.     Poor ear impressions- ear impressions done incorrectly will lead to two big issues such as; fit issues causing pain or discomfort to your ears & fit issues causing seal breakage which leads to bad sound quality.  Many audiology clinics do not agree with the fitting process the manufacturers ask for.
