Earbuds Round-Up

I have applied a tiny,tiny amount of superglue between the plastic(red,blue) and the metal shell in order to avoid these kind of problems. I too have the 4 holes and single vent PT15s and they sound slightly different. The 4 holes seemy to have a open soundstage(?).

****'s quality control is not that great. One of my PT15's right side MMCX socket is slightly big and the connector falls off from time to time.

I suspect that **** buys the small, smooth-sided MMCX connectors because they're small & cheap - and then they press-fit them into the plastic bushings. It would probably add significantly to the price if they did a fit check on every one of them - and since the MMCX plugs also vary a bit in size, then a jack that passes at one test station, might fail at another one.

Wilsound or emx500s?

Coming from pt1 and graphene

I haven't heard either, but my guess is that the willsound will blow the socks off of the emx500s :)

(If anyone thinks that's too strong, I will edit)

I have not heard the emx500 but my new Willsound MK1 rev2 is blowing the socks off me!

Costs a lot more than the 500 though.

Btw, I am a big fan of my DIY mx500 earbuds (before the left driver started rattling). How do they compare to the emx500s?

That's quite a big claim and sounds really promising. How would you compare the MK1 to maybe the MK2 or 3 (if you've heard them)?
I’m sorry but I can’t answer that yet as I’m waiting for the mk.2 to be delivered and don’t have the mk.3
