a repost: from post 3673
(for anyone who wants the perfect adaptor, FREE of charge! I will put them in an envelope and send them on to you! I found it to be a great help with adapting any IEM to the W4! works as a collar/adapter, I get them free from work! the larger diameter bore, along with a regular IEM seems to NOT impeed the wonderful sound in the least coming from the W4, I am liking what I am hearing!)
hubba hubba folks, well I happily discovered that the perfect collar to go over the W4 stem and allow ANY larger tip to be put on over it, comes from where I work, I work the paint line, and we use plugs to mask the threaded parts, and the smaller rubber plug fits GREAT over the w4 stem nice and snug with a nice large bore,
if you want some, PM me and I can mail some out to you, no more canibalising other tips, not that that is a big deal for some of the ones that get torn up, but these plugs cold be a better solution in some cases,
anyway I am getting a deeper/better insertion with them, I started out as long as they would go and then trimmed them to what worked best,
all I ask is you share here, with what you hear, good, bad, or indiferent, IEM fundamentals 101, tips and fit can make ALL the difference in the world with what we hear coming from our gear!
here's some pics
^ the one on the left is the W stem section, on the right is the plug from work, bigger diameter
the plug from work on the W4 stem
another angle
hollar hollar if you'd like to try experimenting with a couple of sets of them?
