So far..
Would this driver fit in this shell? https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32981145439.html it comes with 5 pairs and with foam pads already :#

No, this driver has MX760 cover and fits DP100, Hybrid and MX760 shell. This one is for MX500, but I don't know how it sounds like in this shell.

These models use ShoonTH (Foster) driver but this shell is hybrid, something in between MX500 and DP100.
NOTE: Never ever use drag n drop method of tuning in this.
@jeejack went a little further with this model and made an MMCX version as well

Ah, so the ShoonTH uses Foster drivers? I remember being disappointed by the Foster drivers in the Ocean Pearl 139. I really wanted to like that one.

Okay, any suggestions? :# I will resell extra pairs.

If you're ever in the market again for more Blur, check out the OFC MX64 aPs Special Tuning Edition. Sounds like it would be your cup of tea!

Hope you enjoy your new buds!

I'm in talks with Wong, he has not gotten to retune the 400ohm drivers yet, so we'll how that plays out.

I scrolled passed the picture and recognized something, had to scroll back to see what is it that looks familiar.

Is that an alice?!

Close! It's a Nunu.

Are you plan to build few pairs or just one?

Only difference is that OG ShoonTH buds use the best samples of these drivers. I see Ocean Pearl 139 use 44ohm driver and MX500 cover and shell.
This one has different spec and it's 32ohm.

The cable you picked is very stiff and easily break near the plug.
I suggest you spend a little bit more and get higher quality cables like the ones suggested by furyossa or something like this
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32820539003.html?spm=a2g0o.cart.0.0.65713c00GfXpIg&mp=1

This cable is really good if you are on a budget https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32932216968.html?spm=a2g0o.cart.0.0.3a483c00jzHmHD&mp=1

At the same price or less you might also consider testing 2-3 different cheap drivers instead of assembling 5 identical earbuds.

Ah, I see. Ok. Thanks for the clarification. Although if I do recall correctly, the Ocean Pearl 139 is a slightly-modified MX500 shell, namely the stem and the part where it flares out to the face. The rest, appears to be identical.

The question is whether he wants to build just one model or plans to embark on a serious DIY work.
I don’t want to waste time and recommend a bunch of things if there’s no need

RY cable: lighter, softer and have better build quality (better plug and workmanship + higher quality copper)
Fabric cable: more durable and easier to solder (less brittle tin).

Sound wise there isn't much difference, it's more a matter of look and price.
I'd pick the RY cable if you plan to use them indoor otherwise the fabric cable.

The fabric cable from that link have a 4-pole jack, i suggest getting the 3-pole standard jack.

Side by side comparison:

RY cables are really great. I test them all and never had a problem with them
