I'm not a frequent poster here because I constantly feel like I'd be eaten up because of my inexperience, but I was wondering, after my EP-830s lost sound in the right channel, if the actual jacket changes the sound "signature".
So I went to Best Buy and bought a random 20$ pair of earbuds (Rocketfish RF-EHP11) that came with large silicon and small (no medium) and a pair of Comply Foam tips.
I also had a pair of skullcandy (calm down, its only the jackets..) jackets I picked up from a friends broken earphones (I had lost my own EP-830 jackets), so I started trying to compare.
Unfortunately with my fairly uneducated ears, I can't really tell if something's an illusion or if it's real, but I had the impression that the larger the jacket, the boomier or deeper the bass went.
Am I wrong? Is there some kind of rule of thumb?
