Damn, interesting design.

What does that part do though? :thinking:
The first attempt of ear wings :wink: It looks like some radar. It would be cool to install a 6mm micro driver in this part:thinking:

That design would be wasted on a TWS lol.
Well TWS has weakness of falling off the ear with rough movements during workouts, this twist rock system could be one of solution👍

Before this thing goes to cloud of oblivion...
Sennheiser MX90VC, just tried it and it still sounds great, The design still makes sense even after 15 years of its release.
Yet another blast from the past!

Sennheiser called this "Twist-to-Fit"; like so...

The MX 90VC ("VC" indicating that this model came with volume control) was released early summer 2006 along with the MX 50 and MX 70... all had 64Ω drivers.

Interesting concept for sure and I can say the same for the specification. The stem is too blocky, like on BT handsfree buds

I had this 10 years ago. The design was interesting, but these stuff hurt your ears 5min after you put them. It was disaster…
Guess the pros/cons with that design is that it either fits you well or it wont lol.

Like I said it was just the first attempt. Today's solutions have a slightly more sophisticated and comfortable ear-hook, ear-fin or wing or ear-ring.
It’s not a perfect solution but it still does its job

Exactly. Today we have a similar problem with some earbud designs, even when you just look at them, you have an uncomfortable feeling in your ear. :wink:

Seems to be the same store but everything is cheaper on the "niu" store.

Same "business information" paper on both stores.

Have anyone of you bought from this store before?

Judging by aliprice, it doesnt seem like the bell-we ever goes on sale...

Update on EM5 impression: After putting the bass foams and some random foams over them, going through a soft fin, I get a way fuller sound, smooth and perfectly comfy and fit. Kind of a more detailed and controlled Zen. But the sound sig is too different to compare. It's basically an EM5 with more body all over the frequency spectrum.
You would think it would lead to muddy sound and low resolution but it's absolutely not the case. On the contrary.

Have your other earbuds like the Zen LL arrived yet?
