Green, brown, 2x gold stripes in that order, so from what I understand should be around 5,1 ohm (pretty sure it measured 5,5 but I might be remembering it wrong). If you have a soldering iron you might want to get rid of them. I like my B3 better without them.
It's the same resistors in mine. I'll see if bhazard dare to open up his pro's before I decides to remove them or not.
I've tried a couple of different filters in multiple configurations on both drivers but so far I'm liking them best with no filters at all.
I also changed the tips from the Sony hybrid foam to comply's. They actually sound really good with these tips and no filters, much better than the stock version.
Haven’t found any filters to use. Instead I tried cotton from a cotton swab with pretty good results actually. I’m going to experiment with thickness and different material.
I’d like to get some filters/dampers with different impedance to try. Mouser sells Knowles dampers, but shipping cost would probably kill me. Have to find a place to buy some in Europe or maybe Asia.

Found another good Taobao agent. www.engtaobao.com
Their commission is only 6% compared to 10% like the others. It is more streamlined, and it may even offer payment via Paypal (but it is down currently). They use Alipay for credit cards though, which is secure.
I bought the Piston directly from Xiaomi to compare against the Ibuygou one.

This is promising guys. Thank you for taking the risk. If bhazard can confirm that it only needs a filter removal and resistors as well, I will not return my pair. Looking forward to more updates.
One of the drivers in my Moxpad's just failed I suspect it happened when I was burning the headphones with my spare iPod. I've ordered another pair together with Semic MH415.
Ok, with removed filters on all drivers, two very very thin pieces of cotton in the nozzle and comply tips I'm really happy with these. They are no WAY better than in the stock configuration, Now just to decide if I should remove/replace the resistants or not. I would really love to know what, if any, resistants are used in the Pro version before starting messing with this.
I would absolutley recommend these minor changes to anyone who has purchased the B3c's and are disappointed with them.
