What's wrong with my se215?

Hi.
I had se215 for less than a year and there seems to be a problem with it.
It looks as if glue melted inside.
It used to be completely clear and now there is white substance inside.
I don't think the substance came from outside the iem.
I did not notice any change to the performance of se215.

I still have my warranty but sending them for repair would cost time and money.

I don't know if it would be worth it.

 

I'm having trouble attaching pictures.

I keep getting "there was problem submitting this to the server" message.

I'm speculating that it could be a simple accumulation of moisture inside the IEM body. Try putting your IEM in dehumidifying jar or a sealed container with silica gel/desiccant. See if that works.

i have the same thing on mines. clear ones as well and have them for over a year now.

i thought it could be for being dynamic drivers and not having vents but i really have no clue and as the performance hasnt change, i havent worry about it.
