I wish I could find a place to get 4 pin connectors like JH

You're welcome: sockets, plugs, resistor blocks.

You need to degas your casting compound before you pour it. I mix the silicone then use a break bleeder kit to create a vacuum and pop all the bubbles, then the casting material is nice and clear.

What brand is the break bleeder kit, and how do you go about doing it? Im trying to find info on it.

By the way, made this good for bass head iem. It's a 3 drivers 3way crossover. Who can guess what is this? It's gonna be a tough guess to get 100% accurate on my configuration. Hehe

what program are you using if you don't mind me asking?

Its a mityvac. I just plugged the tube and used the little container it came with to mix my impression material. You need to leave about 2/3 of the container free because it froths up when you create the vacuum. Or if you want a bigger container just drill a hole in any rigid container (clear nalgene or mason jar) and use the pump to create a vacuum.

I bought one from harbor freight today, not a Mityvac brand however. I mixed the material in the cylinder and it frothed like you said but the froth wouldn't go away still had bubbles . What kinda pressure do you pump it to ? Am I doing something wrong? Do i need to keep pumping it? Maybe its just a cheap pump Thanks for all the info BTW.

I just pump until its all frothed up and then leave it for a few minutes rolling it around for a bit, then release the pressure and do that again a couple of times. There will still be a few smaller bubbles but once it cures they seem to disappear. I found that mixing smaller batches worked a lot better as well.

Hey guys, have any of you ever experimented with high gloss liquid acrylic for a final coat of shine instead of using a uv lacquer? I always seem to have issues with uv curing lacquers. So I tried some acrylic spray from a spray can on a pair of iems that I don't really care for and it worked great. If I was going to spray anything I would rather use a 2 part epoxy spray so it will actually be hard and less likely to come off after lots of use in the ears.

Also, I realize it's probably not "safe" for the ears to do this. I was just tired of using lack3 and it messing up on me all the time.

I think everyone on this thread had to take responsibility of safety not only of themself but of all readers. If you are posting recommendations or questions please understand that it can be risk for others too.
I recommend only using bio-compatible material which are certified to be in contact with ears.

I would like to know what material to use for non-transparent shell as well. If anyone could give me the aliexpress link, it would be appreciated.

Hey guys, I have currently two sets of IEC711, and I have used it to measure my UERM left ear piece, results below:

Is anyone able to measure theirs and tell me which one is more accurate? Thanks!
