Hifiman DAP minijack troublesome fit

Hi

 

I have the HM-602 and I'm very happy with it. Only big problem is:

 

Not every minijack terminated headphone fits properly.

 

Small minijack plugs (G1A, OK1, MTPC, Westone ES cable) fits all fine, but when I plug my APS recabled HD650 in (with neutrik plug, I think), it constantly falls out while I'm moving around the house. The plug on my DT770 fits right in, but when I tangle the 3m cable up and put the unit in my pocket it also falls out easily. Also when I use the line out, I have a Qables mini-to-mini jack, that won't stay in. It's bothering me a lot.

 

Anyone else having these trouble?

 

It's like the weight of a good quality cable or extra cable tangled up makes the plug turn and when it turns it drops out... BAD.

I have similar experiences.  It seems it has to do with the length of the 1/8 jacks or thickness of them.  Maybe terminating with different jacks would work?

yes, that's what I'm thinking too. Do you have any idea which minijack plugs might work?

Sorry no ideal actually.  You might just have to buy a few...
