The Watercooler -- Impressions, philosophical discussion and general banter. Index on first page. All welcome.
I just noticed that the text is the same for the regular Phönix. But if I remember correctly, it comes with a 2.2mm cable and a 4.4mm adapter. Could it be that it is the same case here?- rogues08

[TEASER] Massdrop x ??? - New Custom In-Ear Monitor available September
Thanks! Just wondering whether a little bit of shrink tape at the connector's side could reinforce the structure and help with the issue. :)- rogues08

[TEASER] Massdrop x ??? - New Custom In-Ear Monitor available September
Could you elaborate a little bit more? Are the connectors the weak part or does the cable itself break easily? Just wondering because I will definitely use them hooked up to my phone in a jeans pocket. Thanks!- rogues08
