My replacement Tin T4 arrived today. This time the MMCX connection is secure and they sound very good indeed. Definitely in my top 5 IEMs, extremely clear and clean sound.

That's great to hear.

I have T4's in the mail, wondering what to do if I encounter the same issue. What was the replacement process like? Did you have to return original to them? Were they difficult about it? How long after the purchase did you raise the issue?

I received my T4 in January. The issue was with the MMCX sockets on the IEMs as the cable worked perfectly on other IEMs. The connection was very loose to begin with and the problem developed after about three weeks. I received THREE sets which were Amazon returns! All work perfectly and so far have no issues with connection.

This looks very interesting: BLON BL-05 2nd generation, single CNT DD using "thermoacoustic technology creating current in the carbon nanotubes" and no moving parts! Link:

Loving the mint green BL-05!

just a notice, the 05 is a pre-sale right now. They will ship it out on 05/30 (according to linsoul and probably for all other stores). And seems to be a single DD instead of the DD+piezo that the 05 was supposed to have before.

 

[FuelMan]

So do we buy these?

I want to...but since it is a 1 month wait for them to even ship it out...dont know. Mostly because who knows when Sweden might close their borders and stop accepting stuff from china.....if they do it at all lol.

When I click on the link that @Nimweth sent from my phone app it indicates "estimated delivery on 5/11?"

(dd-audio store, all stores are probably in the same boat)

I see that now after fully reading further down the page. I did find that AK Audio Store has them as well and lists 5/22 as an estimated delivery date and reviewed the entire page but didn't notice anything like what you've mentioned above from DD Audio. I'm sure it will take a while regardless.

BTW - they appear to be using the same .78 2-pin connector but it sticks up and a standard 2-pin terminal adds to this extension. I know it's not considered a "QDC" so is there a name for this terminal that will "slip" over the terminal on the earphone and work as the stock terminals? I'd like to get an upgrade cable for my BL03's but am not sure what type of terminal I would need to select?

Not sure if there is a standard for the blon style. But I believe that you can sand paper down the connector itself then the QDC will fit. Not sure though but @Slater might know (I am pretty sure the sand paper idea was from slater though...)

The tube on it still looks a little short...

 

[RikudouGoku]

I just use a cable that sticks out a bit, not a big problem for me.

Loving the mint green BL-05!

Colors are exactly the same as the BL03 - shiny silver and shiny greyish black.

Any green color is just a effect of the lighting or color tinting from the photos.
