my friends, I was curious on your thoughts on the detachable cables of both the t3 and t5?
I'm all for the idea of easily swapping the cable once something cuts out any such but in the past many "earphones" with detachable cables seem to bring a lot of issues to the table as well
like mmcx connectors on my vsd3s (its fine now, but it spins freely and I can see dust possibly seeping in between the gaps (which is bound to happen when the cable is not fixed)
and if you keep detaching them (like I did when I got the lunarshop cable, just to try em out) I noticed the connectors get more and more loose.
SOOO anyways long story short (does the t3s and t5's detachable connection feel sturdy? does it spin freely with little to no effort)?
I think I'll find out eventually but I wanted to hear your thoughts friends!
Expect to have a similar experience like with VSonic VSD3/3S. The only difference is that a part of the connector hosted inside of the Titan shell is slightly different in comparison to VSD3 where the middle pin was more recessed. Because of this improved connector part used in Titans, both stock and Lunashops/Penon cables leave a minimum gap when engaged. Right now it spins freely but doesn't feel loose. Also, considering a typical wire down fitment vs VSD3 over the ear, there will be less "spinning" with wire down. Without a doubt, removable cable has its advantages and disadvantages, just check UE900, Westone, and Shure forums plagued with issues related to a standard mmcx connector. But you still have an advantage of replacement if it fails, and ability to use a high quality cable or the cable with smartphone controls.
