Take the ER-6i for example. Each earbud comes with a filter, which is essentially a small plastic cylinder with a thin film over the top. When the film is intact, the headphones sound terrific. If it is clogged, they sound muffled. If it is pierced, they become louder and sound terrible. Of it is removed, they are even louder and sound nearly as bad as stock iPod earbuds.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[EdZ]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 18th 2008 12:25PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/18/iphone-speaker-too-quiet-stab-it-with-needles/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/18/iphone-speaker-too-quiet-stab-it-with-needles/</guid><description><![CDATA[You assume people, like you, are reading things on the internet.<br><br>If you had read the forum thread, you'd know that there wasn't a speaker behind the holes.
