Could please anyone who knows remind how the thickness of white horseshoe tuning paper/cotton affects the sound? There are various types of thickness from some sellers on ali, ranging usually from Y2 (the thinnest) to Y5 or Y6 (the thickest).

But are there any major issues with power and sound quality?

Hi everyone! I don't hate cables, especially when they are not getting snagged on something, but got curious if it's possible to modify some semi wireless earphones by switching the IEMs with earbuds? Does it depend on the driver impedance, the power provided by the battery or the need to open...

Sadly it's a mdr-e808 type driver, and it won't work with this one. Either it won't fit into mx500 or other caps.

Which types of glue would you recommend? And should this incident affect the sound in some way?

Guys, is there a way to glue two parts of a driver back together, or some other method? The connecting wire is not torn. I won't bother if it wasn't kind of a rare driver.

Have anybody tried these archaic earbuds? It's a SYN1301B motorola headset. Could they be opened and recabled without breaking the shell or drivers?

Would appreciate it :) So I bought some used and half-dead genuine sennheisers mx170 and mx375. These buds are very similar in driver parts' form, have 15.4mm drivers and are fully compatible with mx500-like diy ones. I personally like mx170 fit more than mx500 and find it interesting for diy...

Thank you. I found the one where is told that the driver is 16mm size, though got the new info that it was measured and actually the driver itself is 15.3mm. But no info about the mounting say mx500 drivers.

Guys does anyone know is it possible to mount diy drivers on a sony E808+ shell? Is the shell 15.4, 14.8 or some "gray area" in-between?

These are for the drivers or for the vents? Or do you cut them in half? They don't look like those on the pricey shells.

I don't know if it affects sound much, but noticed that pk shells from CKLewis lack tuning foams on the back vents (compared to these overpriced 3 pairs). Maybe it's possible to find some for these vents or cut some out of those that have extra foam in the center of "horseshoe" part. You put...

Has anybody tried putting vido drivers to smaller shells, like h180?

How do these TRANSCTEGO cables compare with the stock ones soundwise? I've also got some old h180 shells and will try making buds with them :) Still the question: are there any alternative cheap drivers with good bass and non-harsh/overly bright highs?

Hi everyone! I want to make my first DIY buds with these drivers, recommended by robar :) Though I don't know which cables are good. I'd like to use a cable with a remote and volume control. There are some variants: https://aliexpress.com/item/33050270527.html...
