The plastic piece that leads the cable in to the housing (and the part that many have complained about coming unglued from the driver housing) would most likely need to be discarded and the sockets installed on the driver's housing shell.
Brian installed Westone-style removable sockets on my Fischer Audio Silver Bullet (which has a dynamic driver).. his work was fantastic and I had no issues with them. The SB is not vented and has a 'bullet' shaped shell.. I didn't have any heat issues. You can see the pics at his site.
I suspect the challenging part in installing removable sockets on the GR07 would be socket placement.. the stock cable's termination point (into the shell) appears quite narrow. The plastic piece that leads the cable in to the housing (and the part that many have complained about coming unglued from the driver housing) would most likely need to be discarded and the sockets installed on the driver's housing shell.
I think that's common, though mine still offer some resistance. Nothing to worry about afaik.
Has anyone experienced this. My GR07's movable piece seems to be loser and easily moves when I make movements. Before it was hard to adjust the ear piece and now it just too lose and seems to disrupt the desired fit.
Although it seemed like a novel concept, I wondered how long it would last.
How long have you owned them?
Thanks, Jim
I have had them for 8 months now. I had noticed the losinging on the left ear piece about 2 months ago and 1 month ago the right side started and now it is really lose it very easy to move about not as tough as it was. For some people it might not matter for me it does as at times the ear piece slips out of position more easily and forces me to re-adjust every 10-20 minutes.
It does happen over time. That's why I set mine up once and haven't moved them since opening. I suggest you use two very small dots of super glue. Get the nozel in the right direction, then use two dots where the metal touches the plastic around the edge.
Thanks for the info.
Perhaps contact VSonic for a possible warranty?
Good Luck, and I hope it works out for you, Jim
