Something about the rear end of a cat
Share your various concoctions, modifications, and other sundries that make sticking those things in your ear all the more pleasurable!
Whether it be slicing those silicone tips up into origami, acoustic filters of various colours and composition, or perhaps playing around with vents and the likes, any and all ideas are welcome.
Everyone has their own set of ears, so what might work for some, might not work for others. In the same vein, what might sound great to some, others might not find to be the case.
Tip-rolling...
It is not neccessarily all about the "perfect" fit. Sound is a fickle thing, and you might come across an IEM that happens to sound awful when you have a nice, deep fit, but happens to sound spectacular if you just play around a little. Such is the delicate art of rolling tips.
Each IEM has their particular tip combo with their particular advocates documenting their tales on their particular dedicated thread. This is meant to be more of a place of exploration, for tip-rolling combinations that people find work well for them across many universals, or for IEMs that happen to not have their own dedicated thread.
General Modifications...
Playing around with dampers, sorting through all of the various acoustic impedances, adding that special something as a filter; for those who take pleasure out of these activities, this might be the thread for you.
Got a great-sounding IEM, but it happens to be afflicted by an unwieldy cable? Share your woes, and how you might have managed to solve it.
Perhaps you're a little more hardcore. Perhaps you enjoy stripping your earphones down to see what they can truly do. No matter how perverse, no matter how extreme, we welcome your harrowing tales.
