    Connect wired 3.5mm microphone to a Bluetooth device that has a built in mic?

    Easy enough to hack. I would experiment with something like this: https://www.londondrugs.com/helix-bluetooth-earphones/M0010937.html?dwvar_M0010937_color=Black&cgid=ele-portableaudio-headphones-wirelessheadphones Hack off the buds and put a 3.5mm jack for output, and make a separate jack for...

    Home/local sourced acoustic damping materal?

    Well I made do with some polyester fleece fabric that I scrounged around the house. The ends of the tube is a bit flared (10deg?), so it formed a cup/wedge of sorts, and started with a small mass/ball of fleece fabric/lint. Well it definitely muffled down the harsh trebles. And the sound was...

    Home/local sourced acoustic damping materal?

    I've built an earphone that uses comply t100 tips (smallest core=no pressure spots for small ears) and the small round Knowles sr 32453 driver. It has 10mm x 1.5mm ID tubing, and on a test build with no filter, it actually works well, but as expected, it's too bright for my tastes. This was...

    3.5mm bluetooth audio receiver with TRRS microphone.

    Link? That antlion mic looks good. Good audio is extremely important.

    3.5mm bluetooth audio receiver with TRRS microphone.

    No. Next idea is to desolder the mic off of the board, which is usually not very good anyways, and in a poor spot in the first place to pick up any good audio and solder in a female trs plug. For your set up, you'd plug in the audio and mic like an old style pc, and for my built in mic I'd use...

    Which type of glue to use?

    Always a big fan of Goop. Workable in about 30min, but overnight sticks anything to anything, and 100% removable. Huge con is that it's thick and sticky, and starts to skin very quickly within 5 minutes.

    3.5mm bluetooth audio receiver with TRRS microphone.

    Looking for a bluetooth audio receiver that accepts a TRRS input so that I can use the microphone with my headphones, or conversely, defaults to a built in microphone when used with a TRS input. Any recommendations?

    How do I read the frequency response chart of DIY Balanced Armature Drivers?

    I'm planning on building my own IEMs and I've sourced some possible drivers, but I'm having trouble understanding the datasheets that come with them This is from one of the drivers that I"m interested in. https://imgur.com/a/GHz9D How am I supposed to read this? I'm looking to build a...

    Thinking of building my own earbuds. Comprable retail price?

    I'm thinking of building my own earbuds. I haven't found a pair out there that I've liked, and I'd like to do some experimenting with 3d printing. I'm thinking of using these drivers: http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Knowles/SR-31843-000/?qs=wXYKXUmoKsc8otmJ%2fV2Ctw== Mostly because...

    Found a cheap way to keep using comply tips...

    Is to keep the plastic cores on the inside and use just regular earplugs as new foam material. To do it properly, you do need to buy a proper hole punch, a pin to create a guide, a hammer and some goop as an adhesive, but once you do that, you basically have a set of 'comply' tips thats made...

    Chi-fi in ear earbud/iems that fit comply p-100 tips?

    If comply tips are like mattresses, 2's, 4's, 5's are like a guest bed, a bed in a hostel, and a camping mat.

    Chi-fi in ear earbud/iems that fit comply p-100 tips?

    I use comply p100 tips in my earbuds. I'm invested in that size because the core is the smallest which fits my smaller ears, and the smaller core means more foam which means more comfort. I'd like to try out the Chi-fi scene, but I don't want to use any 'included' tips or foam inserts. Even...

    Making my own plugfones (headphones that act and look like earplugs)

    The newer plugfones I'm a current user of.   I combine that with that wire I suggested, and comply tips.   The whole thing fits inside my ear, 24 hour comfort.   It took some soldering skills but the result is that I've had 2 years use with them.  The wire is higher quality, and last...

    Making my own plugfones (headphones that act and look like earplugs)

    Lunashops.com was a start for me.  But since then I found same quality for cheaper on ebay.   http://www.lunashops.com/goods.php?id=4435   These wires have been in use 24/7 for maybe 2 years now?   Pretty happy with them.  They're as flexible as the day I bought them.

    Could someone explain to me the Apple earbud TRS wiring system?

    I just grafted a set of earbuds onto an apple earbud with mic cord.  The non mic side was fairly simple, just two wires for ground and channel and a 'cord for strength'.   But on the left side there was a ground, channel, and a third cord which I would have assumed would be for the mic.   So...

    Burning in earbuds by constantly playing music on them. Didn't think, it does work, but...

    I bought a pair of plugfones earbuds.  They have tiny drivers.   I used them for podcasts and at low volume, but recently found a song that I like that I use as a reference tone for sound quality.   I bought another set, and using my reference tone I found them to be harsh, tinny, lacking in...

    Custom silicone tips

    I've been making silicone tips for years using sort of unsafe tin silicone putty.  the bare earbuds had a sleeve and I would cram silicone in my ears then the earbud with the sleeve.  Once the mold set, I'd take the sleeve off of the earbud, then wrap dental floss to make for a tighter fit.  ...

    What is the plastic/rubber thingy called that adjusts the amount of 'split' of an earbud cable?

    It's like a double barreled shotgun shape and it holds the two cables so that when you slide it up and down, you can adjust the amount of 'split' between the left earbud cable and right earbud cable.   And any ideas where I could get them?

    Could someone explain what "Teflon Cable" is?

    I've tried luna shops, I've tried taking cables from other earbuds, to rebuild my IEM all in the efforts to find cables with low microphonics or stethescope effects.   At this point it's proven to be unsuccessful.   So I found this:  ...

    What are earbuds that tangle really easily?

    I'm rebuilding some plugfones as really cheap IEM's and they insert deep into the ear.  All the cables that I've tried sourcing, even from lunashops either are too thick, or eventually stiffen up which contributes to microphonics.   Which got me thinking that really thin easy to tangle earbuds...

    Where can I find thin quality wires to rebuild my own earbuds?

    Well I did finally get something in.  Good lord is shipping slow.   3 Months!   Found something.  Super high quality, but there are still microphonics.  I think I really need thin wires that lead up to the ears.  The one I got from luna shops is 2.0mm easily.  Really high quality.  I might...

    Recommended IEM with the least amount of microphonics?

    I'm looking for an IEM with low microphonics.  I find that as the wires age, they harden and start transmitting microphonics very quickly.   Any that you can recommend?

    Moxpad X6 First Impressions And Review Thread

    Great review.  The question I have is what are the diameter of the ports that the silicone tips attach to?  What size comply tips would be used?  P tips hopefully?   And the cables.  Is this an easily replaceable cable and even possibly with just a standard audio cable?
