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...

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?

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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?

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:  ...

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...

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?

I've mostly given up on finding an all in one piece wireset from the right angled plug all the way up to the earbuds.   At this point, I franken build my earbuds, which isn't too bad, because since the wires are mostly underneath my clothes.   Now I'm just looking for quality wires that  are...

I have a set of earbuds that I've turned into CIEM's, and no matter what happens,  the wires harden.  They are all made of some sort of PVC wire that loses something or oils just hardening them so that cord rub is extremely annoying.   There is only one wire set that doesn't harden, but they...

I'm at the point that I'm going to make my own earbuds.   What is out there isn't good enough for what I need.   Where can I find earbud drivers?  The little tiny speakers?   Also where can I find quality earbud wires?

Hello all.   I have a pair of comply-in the ear earbuds that i've modified with custom silicone tips.     Fit is good and they're comfortable and the sound is decent for talk, and so so for music.  The noise isolation is fantasic.   Trouble is though that the original wires that came with...
