Abstract
An embodiment of the invention provides a comfort tip for a wireless in-ear utility device that provides pressure relief valves that operate mechanically and also offers a horn that increases the wireless in-ear utility device's ability to deliver sound. The horn effect on the comfort tip allows the wireless in-ear utility device to provide higher sound levels while consuming lower battery power. The pressure relief valves provide increased safety and comfort for the user with an automatic valve calibrated to open to relieve excessive back pressure from the tympanic membrane as well as from a dB blast of 25 dB to 35 dB.
