I meant hoped, a mistakeYou will see just give them time
Are you plan to modify them? Here on this thread, we rarely talk about buds or asking questions about assembled buds.I meant hoped, a mistake
I don't have any experience with modifying earphones in general. I would try, but I need a detailed tutorial
In my inventory you can find different mods and also for ShoonTHI don't have any experience with modifying earphones in general. I would try, but I need a detailed tutorial
I'm preparing to recable some of my earbuds, main reason is to change the cable/plug to balanced.
Does anyone know a store that would sell me cables with 2.5 balanced connectors already soldered?
For a reasonable price that is, not looking for a custom order.
I will ask Ry audio store and Jietu, but I have never seen the DIY cables with 2.5 plugs sold anywhere.

You can buy ready-made and cut their connectors. Nicehck and TRN stores on Aliexpress have good and cheap cablesI'm preparing to recable some of my earbuds, main reason is to change the cable/plug to balanced.

Yeah. This is likely the easiest and cheapest solution.You can buy ready-made and cut their connectors. Nicehck and TRN stores on Aliexpress have good and cheap cables
Or modify the shells with mmcx connectors, but that would be more difficult...
I really like the RY cables.

The metal shells from NSC store have arrived, and these are beautiful.
14.8mm diameter (in theory)
Tried to snap on some grille/cover.
PK style is a bit small, wont fit.
14.8mm metal mesh cover is possibly okay.
I had some 32Ohm titanium drivers, that I removed from the original cover, and I had one undamaged test cover to put on without drivers.
That was a tight fit. So tight, I could not remove it. No matter what I tried.
Then I had to open the back with a needle, to try to push the cover from the back.
Put a stick in, pushed, but still couldn't remove it. I was so angry, I even put it in the freezer, to see if it shrinks a bit, but no luck.
Whatever I tried I only damaged the cover, first the metal grille fall off, then the only way to remove the cover was to peel it from the shell.
So, no luck yet but damages. It is definitely not easy to DIY. I could not tune the driver when I couldn't have removed it, anyway.
These 32Ohm titaniums are my unicorn. Now I have one original, and two modified in a PK front cover, but no original cover.
Now I look around on Ali for spares. Again.

Ok so here is that 14.8mm taobao driver, have some unused zephone cable, all i can say is it is brighter than yuin pk3, hence making it sound more balanced, also good technicality, i didnt do any tuning, i just smacked the stock damper and soldered the cable
