New ACS T1, no acoustic dampers?
I recently got the ACS T1 IEM. Although all the pictures I found of it have acoustic dampers in the tubes, mine don't. Does anyone else with recent models also have the dampers missing? I know this affects the shaping of the sound on the high end.- shoeblade

ACS vs Sensaphonics
Has anyone had experience with both ACS and Sensaphonics custom IEMs? I think I want to go the silicone route, but am unsure which may be better for music listening. Any input would be great. Thanks!- shoeblade

For the stock ones, I would say 4 or 5 times because of the glue. It depends on a few things like their age and how hard they become to get off. You can also see my offer Here and make your own with reusable, softer easier to remove tubes. It's not that hard.- shoeblade

Grab it by the very tip, this part is over the stem: Also try taking it off with a twisting motion.- shoeblade
