Hi Elana,
we are by far not experts in EEG experiments, but we recently did a study using EEG and binaural stimuli (here you can find the pre-print
https://arxiv.org/abs/2503.10783) and we used a pair of Audiotechnica ATH-E50. Before choosing this specific brand and model, we experimented with a few others, looking both
at the acoustic features (e.g. frequency and phase responses, etc.) and at the interference with our 64-channels BioSemi EEG, and these were the ones that behaved better (i.e. broadband response, good enough for binaural signals, and no observable interference
on the EEG)...
I hope this helps.
best
Lorenzo

Sent: 23 March 2025 1:50 PM To: AUDITORY@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <AUDITORY@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [AUDITORY] recommendation for insert earphones? Hi all,
Our good-old ER-1 headphones have stopped working, and I see that they are no longer available...
I was wondering if people have recommendations for alternative insert earphones that are suitable for EEG studies? We use the ER-3 for our MEG experiments, but given that Etymotic is no longer emphasizing research-systems, perhaps we should switch to the
IP30 system (by RadioEar)?
Any insight here would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Elana.
