Hum.....I have a very specific question and will throw it here to see if anybody can help me.

Its about a very particular eartips model that i'm unable to find and don't even know how to name. One thing sure, its of very good use with too treble or harsh or fowards IEM. It was include with Z5000 from HCK but his store don't sell this eartips.



ANY IDEA WHERE TO FIND THESE????????????????????????
Are these are what you’re for? https://audiobudget.com/accessory/earpads

Can You measure stock T2 cable impedances for L/R/G with multimeter and also other cables You have for T2 ?
If there is noticeable impedance difference in readings, then there is Your "issue".
But this difference should be very noticeable number, only 0.1-0.3 Ohm difference could not affect sound at all.
Your T2 cable probably has higher impedance than others since You mention "more mids", which is usually result of higher impedance cable or impedance adapter. I used ~1.2Ohm cable for Senfer4in1 for example to mellow down sound (especially highs) for example.
I have absolutely no idea how to measure cable impedance using a multimeter (I also don’t have one to begin with). What you’re saying makes sense to me though, that could easily be the cause of changes in sound from cable to cable. I’d like to know how to measure my cables.

hum, will try to put a foam toque on silicone tips to see....
Interesting. I’ve never seen them before; what do they do sonically? Also, Comply’s website says earpads are “coming soon.” So maybe they’ll get some of their own sometime soon.

Looks like a silicon tip on which they pulled & stretched down a earbud foam on, like the ones on the Monk+ I just received. :confused:

they make extra sound filtering, so they tame highs a little and for ZS6 I encounter less hissing as well.
Some people put foam into the nozzle, but taking of a grill can sometime cause damage or be irreversible....this foamed eartips surely do a similar job but its easier to test it on any IEM you want:)
Now I know how to recycle all this earbuds foams tips I don't use!

Got it right, I verify its not even stick on it....ahah. Kids job. Other pics show its very easy to do by yourself too....wich explain it can't be found for sell perhaps. Anyway, feel it can be usefull.
I like to have different type of eartips.

Yeah...I like medium and large size so all small and XS really begin to invade my place...like little ants rolling everywhere.
Anybody got small ear hole, perhaps I can give some cause its a shame to collect them (can't put them in garbage, just can't)

PS: Congrats for your Monk+, be cautious about earbuds collection, it begin with a Monk after you try a EMX500 and your brain just can't understand how good 10$ earbuds can sound and after this you got the disease and wanna try every sub-20$ earbuds that promise heaven!
I will receive surely this week 2 more earbuds for my collection: Moondrop Nameless & Panda PK2

Folks, I'm looking for a small earphone with headband, basically like this:

Sony-MDR-W15.jpg

Can be ChiFi or a major brand. Basically just looking for stupid small headband type headphone.

I've tried to search on Amazon for various terms, but I just don't know what style that's called or who makes similar style nowadays.

Can anyone help?

Maybe Sennheiser PMX 686 SPORTS? (Not from China, not <100$, probably not even a band that goes over head but kinda behind and this is probably a bad guess anyways...)
