MMCX is dangerous. I have my nice IT01 cable molded in apparently, and I don't want to even attempt in confirming that assessment...I did however rip out the MMCX from the Yensen 2000 with glee...I don't understand why these are used in expensive IEMs.A 2 pin can be pushed out little by little, one side at a time. MMCX remains a mystery to me. They could take advantage of the rotating factor and have a locking mechanism or something...I don't know, but I don't like.
I think the cable itself is the problem with the IT01 cable. The connector prong part is way too short. I can't actually plug it into any other pair of iems without feeling like I'm going to break something. My NiceHCK cable has a slightly longer prong and there's zero trouble plugging it in and out of any pair, IT01s included.
