The IQbuds BOOST needs to have a good seal within the ear which can cause an occlusion feeling and most likely you’ll be able to hear your voice. The occlusion effect is normal and the IQbuds BOOST will feel like you are wearing earplugs when properly fitted.

This occlusion does affect each user differently, and most users find that they become comfortable with this quite quickly feeling as they have the benefit of being able to control amplification and surrounding noise. We don’t provide open tips like hearing aids which can negate this effect, as it has a big impact on music quality.
