How it works
Four simple steps, start to finish
Every set is made from impressions of your own ears. You take them at home with the kit we send you.
Step 1: Order
Choose your options and check out. Your home impression kit is included.
Step 2: Receive your kit
It ships 2 to 3 business days after we receive your order. Watch your email for the tracking number.
Step 3: Make your impressions
About 15 to 20 minutes at home, with a video that walks you through every step. You can do it yourself; a second person makes it easier.
Step 4: Send them back
Pack them in the same box and use the prepaid return label. We start building the day they arrive.
Then we hand-build your set in 40 business days from the day your impressions reach our lab and ship it to your door, with a 30-day fit warranty. If the fit is off, we adjust it.
Questions about the kit
What if my impression doesn’t come out right?
We check every impression before we build. If one needs to be redone, we send you another kit at no charge. The kit also has extra material in case you want a second try.
Do I need someone to help me?
No. You can take your impressions yourself by following the video. A second person makes it easier, because they can see into your ear, but you don’t need one.
When will my order arrive?
Your kit ships 2 to 3 business days after we receive your order. Once your impressions reach our lab, we hand-build your set in 40 business days and ship it to your door.
Already have impressions? If we made your last pair, choose “Big Ear already has my impressions” at checkout. From an audiologist? Mail them to Big Ear Inc, 101 Durden Park Row, Blythewood, SC 29016.
Stop restocking tips
One custom fit instead of pack after pack of foam tips.
Foam tips squash flat, lose their seal and get thrown out, so you buy more. Custom adapters are molded to your ears in soft silicone and seat the same way each time you put them in: a better seal, all-day comfort, and a lot less going in the trash.
01
Fits like nothing off a shelf
Shaped from impressions of your own ears, so your headset seals properly without pressure points, hour after hour.
02
No more restocking
No more ordering tips, no more spares in the flight bag or the drawer.
03
Less to throw away
One pair of custom adapters in place of a steady stream of worn-out tips.
Hand-built in the USA
Made for your ears alone.
Not assembled overseas, not drop-shipped, not rushed. One pair at a time, for one set of ears at a time. We are proud of that, and we think you can hear the difference.
