Yup, I haven't posted in ages...
My Sensaphonics 2X-S finally died. Specifically.. just the right side. I think it's due to many years of forceful tugging on the wires into the right driver. I had this habit of twisting and pulling the right driver out of my ear when I needed to talk to people and hear what's going on. Since I also wear the wires tightly around my head (they go behind the ear with a cable fastener kind thing), whenever I did that, it pulled on the wire.
A few months ago I noticed that the right driver would occassionally drop out, as it turns out, I've pulled the cable loose after all these years of use & abuse. I think I've had these for over 5+ years now.
I've got a new pair of Sensaphonics on order now...
I briefly considered getting something from JH Audio... but honestly, I was fine with Sensaphonic's sound, and the comfort level was just above and beyond for long wearing sessions. So I decided to take another shot with Sensaphonics instead of going to something else.
So I guess I can finally answer that question, if anyone is still care at all anymore... "if Sensaphonics still sounded the same?".

- Shortly thought about UE, but... nah, don't like the sound. Been there, done that.
- Thought about reports of Sensaphonics not sounding the way it used to... intrigued.
- It does look like Sensaphonics went through a few more cable revisions since those reports anymore... May as well try it again.
- I still have my old UE5c, tried to just use that... still don't like the hard acrylic. I still prefer soft silicone.
