Home-Made IEMs
After a failed first attempt where my impressions were badly taken: holes on one side and a short ear canal on the other, I was able to get a new pair (and a half, the audiologist let me keep one of the test impressions) done. This time they seem pretty good to me. New impressions And now...- phrancini

With 11.11 approaching I decided to invest 10/15 usd to get as many IEMs ad I can (2 or 3), I'm looking at ultra cheap products that fall under the 5 USD mark: I'd like to try some cheap stuff to expand my collection or maybe hand them away to family and friends without breaking the bank. I've...- phrancini
