IE Professional Reference Earphones User Guide 5

Additional Safety Tips for Proper Use

Do not use these earphones in any environment where a failure to hear surrounding sounds could be dangerous. In no way should these earphones be used while driving a car, biking, walking or operating machinery.

Do not submerge or expose the earphones to water (see the section on Earphone Care and Maintenance).

When using your earphones with an unfamiliar or unstable sound system (airplane, public access ports, etc.) make sure volume is low and is kept at a moderate level to prevent “break-in” bursts of loud sounds.

Keep your M-Audio IE earphones away from young children. This product includes small parts and cables that may create a choking hazard.

Remove earphones if they cause any ear discomfort or you have difficulty inserting the ear tips (see the section on Suggestions for Using Ear Tips). Remember, ears are sensitive and you should never force anything into the ear canal.

Consult regularly with a physician or audiologist if you have problems hearing, excessive wax build-up, or any discomfort after use.

Your M-Audio professional reference earphones are intended for your personal use. If you are sharing your earphones, remove your ear tips, and clean your earphones with antiseptic wipes before and after sharing.

IE-10, IE-20xb, IE-30 specifications

M-Audio has established a strong presence in the audio equipment industry, and its in-ear monitor (IEM) series reflects this commitment to quality. The M-Audio IE series, which includes the IE-10, IE-20 XB, IE-30, and IE-40, offers musicians and audiophiles an array of features designed to enhance sound fidelity and ensure comfortable long-term wear.

The IE-10 is the entry-level model but doesn’t skimp on quality. It includes a single dynamic driver that delivers a warm and clear sound profile, making it an excellent choice for casual listeners. Its lightweight design and secure fit allow for comfortable wear during extended use, while its in-line microphone and control facilitate easy handling of phone calls and music playback on the go.

The IE-20 XB steps up the game with a dual-driver configuration that enhances sound clarity and provides a more balanced audio experience. This model is particularly appealing for bass enthusiasts, boasting an extended low-end response that makes it suitable for genres like hip-hop and EDM. The IE-20 XB also features a detachable cable for easy replacement, which adds to its durability.

For professionals demanding even more, the IE-30 utilizes a triple-driver system. The separation between drivers allows for an impressive dynamic range and accurate sound reproduction. It’s ideal for studio monitoring and live performances, as it ensures that users can hear every nuance in their audio. Additionally, the IE-30 comes with several ear tips to ensure a perfect fit, facilitating effective noise isolation.

Finally, the IE-40 rounds out the series with a hybrid driver setup, combining multiple technologies for a comprehensive audio experience. The IE-40 is engineered to cover a wider frequency range, producing crisp highs and strong mids, making it a well-rounded option for musicians and audiophiles alike. The comfortable ergonomic design, along with its robust build quality, makes it suitable for daily usage.

Across the M-Audio IE series, users can expect high-quality construction and a stylish finish that caters to both form and function. Each model is equipped with an easily replaceable cable and various ear tip options to provide a personalized fit.
