That's a possibility, given that the ie8 seems a bit more lose in the x1060 port than my mx660 jack... its much easier to move, pull up.- mosso2000

Maybe it's higher, yes? Let's cross fingers and hope that tomorrow microphonics will be gone. That's what happened with both my iphone3G and my s639... I have everything ready to make a mod, it's planned Not sure which one to try first- mosso2000

After many issues I fitted comply t400s and almost immediately found a good fit. And wow. A crescendo in one of Bob sinclar's favourite songs made me shivering like never. I would'nt have expected such greatness in my wildest dreams- mosso2000

omg that's pure art! How are the trebles with this extreme mod? Basically, you're filling a sony silicone with a T400, good job! I may give a try if in complete desperation little question : do you have to pull your ear nackwars/upwards or whatever to fit this in?- mosso2000

thanks mark. It's worth a try, for sure. what are the difference between tips and buds in the ebay ad? are they all the same? The weird thing is that the orientation of my ear canal seems to be upright not slightly forward... Hope I'll manage to solve the issue. Now my head is about to...- mosso2000
