MX760, DP100, Hybrids ... these are 3 shells which have better comfort and fit than MX500. As when it comes to tuning options, MX500 is still the king. I prefer hybrids because they are something in between MX500 and DP100, both comfort and tuning wise. They are compatible with MX760 drivers, with MX500 you need to use the trick

Hi, I have a technical question regarding fixing out of phase earbuds, MX500 shell w/ fixed cable? Can I just switch the +/- wires in one channel? Thanks

You just switch the +/- wires in one channel. That's all.

Hello, I am trying to make some IEMs with dynamic drivers for the first time and I am a bit overwhelmed with the increased complexity that comes with tuning them. Can someone give me a general rundown of how different tuning methods (Size of back volume and front volume, venting the back volume, different foams/papers) affect the sound signature of DDs? Thanks.

Hi folks, just tried the 150 ohm bg and n52. Noticed the n52 have thicker hs foam, probably twice than the generic hs foam.

Remove stock HS and use white tuning filter (W_T_F) instead and put some HS on shell

This for n52 or 150 bg? Which white filter? Y2- Y5?

150BG, medium foam on the shell + Y3 or Y4 should be fine. N52 should sound good even whitout changing the pre-applied foam although it is usually a good idea to always replace it with a more standard HS.

Alright noted i will try this tuning, thanks!!

Applying a small water decal is sure testing my patience lmao. I cant imagine how frustrating it is to recoil a driver

The rary's and furyossa's tuning suggestion is crazy damn good, it is imo better than my stock rosemary. Mind you that the rosemary is okayish and a bit too dark for my taste. Black white final sound is a lot more balanced accross the frequency, perhaps a U shaped soundsig? Listening to these black white is addicting!

The black white was supposed to be given for my friend and this final sound make me think twice lol. There is a lot more to be explored for me, thank you for the guide!

I opened the graphen 400 ohm 15.4mm speakers and the film/membran/diaphragm doesn't look like graphen to me, more like any membrane.
The resistance is true.

My pair from GHXAmp has the same membrane. I don't know if it's a special kind of graphene coating or if it's just plain PET and fake advertisement, the only thing i'm sure is that it's still one of the worst DIY drivers i tried and it took countless attempts to make it sound acceptable.

it's graphene, don't worry

Graphene being one of the thinnest and most conductive materials on earth is super thin to the point of being two-dimensional! Despite it's extreme thinness and nearly transparent chicken-wire like looking structure it can be seen with the naked eye but in this particular application, over a driver diaphragm, it is extremely difficult to detect. I concur with @furyossa that it is more than likely graphene than not and with @Rary that they sound like crap!

I measured the resistance of the driver diaphragm and it is not conductive with my multimeter, a resistance greater than 100M ohm. A carbon pencil lead was conductive. The diaphragm is more stiff than the 150 ohm blue glue driver. For the sound, all i can tell is that it clearly need burning, the first hours were harsh, bass were lacking.
