I have a problem. EARWAX, EARWAX, EARWAX!!! I think that I could be the single source for all the Amishs candle needs! So, how do I clear the gunk out of my 1More triple drivers?

I'd be inclined to check in with a hearing aid outfit.

Do these have filters? These might be screens like Dale is referring to, or little round inserts like Etymotic uses. If so, replace (or clean using hydrogen peroxide after removing if the metal screen type). If not, umm.....errrr.....

  • To whom more was given more will be required.
    • Never go to a psychiatrist, adopt a straycat or dog. On the street they live only two years average.

Have you considered that it would be more prudent to clean your ears regularly rather than trying to constantly clean your earbuds?

I would not recommend removing wax from the ears constantly, the more wax it removes, the more wax the ear produces.
