Yes i was thinking about the color swapping.
Maybe the color swap changed something in the production that's causing these defects now.
A TRN beta tester on audiobudget facebook page said trn has 1 defective pair out of 5.000 average, and this is strange considering here on the forum we were 3 people and one more on the facebook post comments.
So 4 out of 20k actually? I don't know, something has happened, i'm just trying to understand if it depends on the type of colore (glossy or matte).
If the last one you're mentioning is what i think around 50$, it's out of my budget sadly.
Is that in ear really using knowles drivers?
It's incredible i mean, 2x knowles drivers cost 50$ and that headphone costs like 50$.
How can it be possible?
1 out of 5,000 defects? I highly doubt that. That is is a 200ppm defect rate; an extremely low number even for the best and most advanced manufacturing companies on earth. It is possible, but I personally don’t believe it.
Unfortunately, there’s no way to prove it. I mean, just on HF we’ve had numerous people who had the nozzle fall off their v80. Do you really think for every 1 of those HF people, there were 5,000 others with absolutely zero issues - not even a channel imbalance or driver wired out of phase?
To your 2nd comment, I would say the per-unit cost of Knowles drivers could be low if you buy in sufficient quantities. If you buy 25k drivers at a time, you’re going to get a much lower price than buying 2 drivers.
