Aliph Jawbone Wireless Cell Phone Headset

It took well over an hour trying to find the magic combination of earloop and adapter to fit and after it was fitted about as good as I could get it, including some slight twisting and bending of the wire earloop it still felt insecure and the rubber adapter that fits into the ear canal did not provide a good sound seal. The problem is compounded by the fact that the earloop is lightly spring loaded to press the sensor against your cheek but this has the side effect of tending to pull the adapter out of the ear. This is likely the reason that I feel the sound quality is not what it should be for the price. Additionally, the material that the earloop is made of is very stiff and apparently a bit brittle since one of the earloops broke near the end when trying to fit it. I am going to attempt to fit the earloop a little better than the fit that I have now and give it another chance but it would be better if the earloop was of more malleable material to allow the user to fit the loop better since, as they note, everyone's ears are different.
