Abstract
An earphone comprising housing, a speaker, a speaker protrusion extending along a protrusion axis and comprising an inner protrusion surface and an outer protrusion surface, a resilient eargel comprising an inner eargel surface and an outer eargel surface. The eargel is detachably attached to the speaker protrusion, such that the outer protrusion surface abuts an abutment part of the inner eargel surface in an abutment zone extending along the protrusion axis. The eargel is adapted to be inserted into the outer ear of a user, such that it abuts the ear canal of a user, whereby a cavity is provided between at least the speaker, the inner protrusion surface, the inner eargel surface and the ear canal. The earphone is provided with a vent channel coupling the cavity and the ambient, wherein the vent channel comprises a groove () in the outer protrusion surface or the inner eargel surface. The vent channel is provided between the groove in the outer protrusion surface and the inner eargel surface or between the groove in the inner eargel surface and the outer protrusion surface. The groove comprises a first groove part, that extends in a plane orthogonal to the protrusion axis.
