It's a tiny piece of acoustic damping foam in the black LF filter. It just splits the difference between the gray and black LF filters.
Hello Paco,Hi, guys.
I've been reading the thread thoroughly because i'm looking for a true upgrade from my Eph-100s, but i'm still deciding between the FLCs and the Ethymotic ER4XR.
Any advice would be really grateful.
I don't know if it has been answered before. My flc8s come with not memory wired cable, but it seems (looking to some photos) that others have that memory wire section (at the beginning of the cable, where it goes under the ear, you know what i mean )
are they ship in two different versions or something?
My understanding is the later-model units ship without the memory wire. Not sure when they made the change - 2016 maybe?
Has Mr. Wei made any changes to the iem themselves over the years? Mine are still as great as the day I got them, minus some aesthetic imperfections. I'm kind of looking for an excuse to buy another pair if you get my drift . Also, is the most current version of the upgrade cable less springy than the stock one from 2015?
Thanks, been out of the loop on head fi the past year. It may be too early to say, but at what level of bass is the 8d fixed at compared to the 8n (less, medium, most)? I run black, red, and green on the 8s.The upgrade cables are still springy but less micophonic IMHO but have no memory wire. I received mine (balanced) yesterday.
As far as I understood the 8s is still the same but flc will add some newer variations of the 8s namely 8d and 8n which should be available after chinese new year. In addition, there will be a new model flc9 araound June/July this year. If you like to spend 2k USD flc has an option for this, Celeste.

+1 on the FLC as well. You won't regret it! I only tried the ER4, isolation win hands down for sure. Sound is I prefer FLC that is.Thanks a lot! Exactly what i wanted to know.
