Best audiophile earwax removal system?


I hadn't cleaned the wax from my ears for a few months, and was amazed when I did so.

The imaging improved even more than it did from inserting  a $10K mains cable.

I just used an awkward little bottle of wax remover.

Any suggestion re ear-cleaning kits that are easy to use and effective?

Whether a professional or not, a person's intellect doesn't always extend all the way to that person's fingertips. Smart person, shaky hands, no good. Smart person, but doesn't when enough is enough, no good. Choose wisely.

A nurse friend of mine told me that, during her training, an instructor said "never put anything in your ears that's smaller than your elbow"! Still makes me chuckle.

I have suffered for years with excessive ear wax! The best method I have found is a 50/50 mix of the hottest water you can stand, with 70% Hydrogen Peroxide.

The solution your suggesting ends up as a 35% solution of Hydrogen Peroxide. That seems like plenty enough to really irritate your ear canal.  It's actually 10 times greater than is recommended.  I'm just surprised that's all.  You don't seem to have any bad effects.

I use 3% hydrogen peroxide. You can actually hear it foaming up as it dissolves the wax. Wondering if the poster above using 70% hydrogen peroxide is confusing it with 70% isopropanol? Seems kind of strong to be using in your ears but if it works, who am I to argue.

Finally, a reasonable use of real Snake Oil.

Isn't there a product that advertises "scrubbing bubbles"?  I can't remember if it was for the ears.
