Shanling M8 Android Portable player
I'm goikng through the same thing. Shanling directed me towards linsoul.com but they said no way to ship battery. They are going to try a different carrier after the Chinese holiday. I'll let you know if I have any success.- driftstar

SONY IER-Z1R
I modified mine by filing/sanding down the 2 pin socket for more clearance and compability with non-recessed 2pin cables. Pictures so you can compare the difference. Left side w/o socket and right with socket still intact.- driftstar

SONY IER-Z1R
I saw the same review and stayed far away from OEAudio. The ones I got have lasted since 2013. Luckily they came out intact from the zx5 but definitely a valid concern. I found ones on ebay that look more sturdy and specific to the Z1R. Might buy them to try out. Just an option for people who...- driftstar

SONY IER-Z1R
Just got my Xmas present today. Luckily, I have no fit issues and have been enjoying for a couple hours. Wanted to offer a possible solution to others having trouble with the cable/fit. I used an angled mmcx to 2pin adapter from my ZX5. Not only does this save the mmcx, but it also allows...- driftstar

LG V10 : New ESS Chipped Flagship Android Phone from LG
I had the same thing happen and did the same fix. It's easy and cheap. But I was curious what caused this to happen so I ripped the old headphone jack apart. Turned out, dust/lint collected inside and prevented the headphone plug from fully seating. Another symptom was the headphone stopped...- driftstar

Hidition NT-6 Custom IEM Review: The Ultimate Reference?
So I picked up another cable off another headfiers recommendation. I ordered from headphonelounge.com. So far it has been pretty good and I would say it blends pretty well. It sounds better without changing the sound signature too much. My previous cable made the soundstage a little smaller and...- driftstar

LG V10 : New ESS Chipped Flagship Android Phone from LG
Wow, I thanks gr8soundz. I played with the hi-res option and heard an improvement. But the volume was lowered and gave up on it. Not that I checked "No Headphone Gain",the volume is back again. Loving poweramp, this phone, and site even more.- driftstar

LG V10 : New ESS Chipped Flagship Android Phone from LG
Found something cool with the new poweramp alpha release. In the audio setting under advanced tweaks, you can set more volume steps. Really helps when the stock v10 volume is either too high or too low. Now I can set the volume more precisely.- driftstar

LG V10 : New ESS Chipped Flagship Android Phone from LG
Been listening with neutron and seems to sound better to me than the stock player. I thought I was accessing the hifi dac by toggling and switching from the stock player. Anyone experience static with some songs on high notes in neutron? If I play the same song on the stock player, it is fine...- driftstar

This is so cool. I love little tricks like this. So far, had the phone for a day now. Will set some time to do comparisons with my dap. Right now I am totally satisfied with the sound.- driftstar
