When it comes to custom-fit Bluetooth earphones, Strato stands out by offering a listening experience tailored specifically to you. The key to achieving this exceptional fit is the ear impression process—a critical step in crafting your personalized earphones. Here’s everything you need to know about preparing for your ear impression appointment and ensuring flawless results.
Why Ear Impressions Are Important
Strato’s custom-fit design relies on precise measurements of your ears to deliver unmatched comfort and sound isolation. By capturing the exact contours of your ears, we create earphones that feel secure, even during the most intense activities, while providing superior sound quality.
How to Prepare for Your Ear Impression
1. Ensure Your Ears Are Clean
The first step in preparing for your ear impressions is ensuring that your ears are clean and free of wax. Minor earwax buildup can be addressed during your appointment, as Plexsonic offers a complimentary light cleaning service. However, if you suspect significant wax buildup, we recommend visiting a GP or an ENT specialist for professional cleaning at least 1–2 days before your appointment.
2. Check for Ear Health
If you have any discomfort, infections, or medical concerns, consult with a doctor before your appointment. Healthy ears are essential for accurate impressions and a comfortable experience.
3. Relax During the Process
The ear impression process is straightforward and safe. At Plexsonic, we use otoblock foam stoppers to protect your eardrum while a soft silicone material is applied to capture your ear’s shape. Our experienced technicians ensure precision and comfort throughout the process.
4. Partner Options for Special Cases
If your ears aren’t suitable for impressions—for example, due to earwax buildup or complex medical conditions—we collaborate with trusted professionals:
-
Amazing Hearing (Chinatown Point) for audiological assistance.
- Address: 133 New Bridge Rd, #B2-04/05, Singapore 059413
-
Nuffield ENT (Wheelock Place) for more specialized cases.
- Address: 501 Orchard Rd, #05-15, Singapore 238880
We’ll guide you through the next steps if a referral is necessary.
What to Expect During Your Appointment
- Inspection: Our technicians will inspect your ears to ensure they are ready for the impression process.
- Light Cleaning (if needed): If minor wax is present, it will be gently removed on-site at no extra charge.
- Ear Protection: An otoblock will be placed in your ear canal to protect your eardrum.
- Silicone Molding: Medical-grade silicone is injected into your ear canal and allowed to set for 3–5 minutes, creating a precise mold.
- Final Inspection: Once removed, the mold is carefully examined for accuracy before moving to the crafting phase.
