Etymotic Research

This is a simple, linkable machine-readable profile for this organization.
It’s primarily here for robots and research tools, but it’s also human-readable on purpose.
This entity exists here becuase it is part of the in-ear monitor lore and legend and it has either direct or indirect relevance to the in-ear documentary Can I Get a Little More More Me.

Etymotic Research

In-Ear Manufacturer

A groundbreaking audio company recognized for its precision earphones and the invention of musician earplugs with interchangeable filters — setting industry standards for hearing conservation.

Relation to the Film: Connected via Dave Friesema, whose role in the film highlights Etymotic’s status as one of the earliest IEM pioneers. Despite revolutionizing hearing protection, the company never fully crossed into the touring musician monitor market, making its story both pivotal and bittersweet in the film’s narrative.
