When I played at the loopers conference in Santa Cruz, I used ear monitors for the first time. At the time, I was using some Sony versions that insert right into your ear...they were about $30 and worked great. Since then, I've purchased the Sure E2 mini earphones: http://www.zzounds.com/item--SHUE2 They are more sturdy and fit into your ear better. The Sony earphones fell out easily. Since I play acoustic, this approach works great, especially for the big gigs....eliminates the problem of feedback. Kris -----Original Message----- From: L.
