Hey all,
tl;dr: are there known issues with the pinnacle P1 cables, and can you recommend an adequate replacement cable for these IEMs?
I bought the meeaudio P1 less than a year ago. The IEMs came with two cables; an "high-end" one, and a simpler-looking one with a microphone.
I first used the high-grade cable. After ~3 months, the right side-earbud started to to go on and off, until it stopped playing completely. The problem was with the cable, since when I switched the earbuds it would still be the right side that didn't play.
I contacted meeaudio, and they offered that I'd send them the cable for and they would provide me another one; I didn't do it since I was too busy at the time with finalizing my research project and writing my thesis and I didn't have the time to handle with it for quite long period. That one is on me, I must admit.
Instead, I moved to the other cable, with the remote and mic; it was all fun and games until about a month ago, where the left earpiece have started to go on and off, similarly to the previous cable. I've contacted meeaudio about 3 months ago, so I guess that I'm using the current cable for 3 months as well...
From the reviews on the amazon page of the cables, as well as from a search here in the forum, quite a lot of people have complained about the cables breaking after a short time, but these are anecdotes - are there known issues with the P1 or the P1 cables, and were they addressed by meeaudio?
In addition, I'd like (and need) to buy a replacement mmcx cable to match with the P1, which are overall great IEMs - which would you recommend? My budget is up to ~30$ (I have a limited budget
) but I'm willing to pay up to 50$ or so if there would be a significant improvement in SQ. The headphones are driven by LG V10.
Thanks in advance!
