I like my Kanas with SpinFit CP240 tips. Someone recommended them before also. It gives more emphasis to midrange surprisingly, and you don't need to make "spacers".
They already improved shell with KXXS - "upgrade" version of KPE. That issue can be solved with "slip-stop" rings below tip barrel, like discussed previously.All this talk reminds me of how much Moondrop missed the mark with usability and ergonomics, on the Kanas Pro. If the mark on the stem is supposed to indicate where the tips are supposed to be pushed until, how about you make the mark/spacer raised enough to actually hold at least the STOCK tips in place?
The Kanas Pro has so much potential, but the usability and ergonomics really needed work. Hope Moondrop learns from this for their future releases.
The purpose of the “spacer” is not so much for fit, but rather to ensure the best bass by having overlap of the end of the tip and the end of the stem by preventing the tip from sliding all the way down the stem...
In fact the spacer may make getting a good fit and seal harder, since the big issue with the KPE is that it is a heavy IEM with a long stem so it represents a heavy weight at the end of the stem, creating leverage. If you push the tip down far you can get the IEM body to sit closer to your ear, but at some expense to sound quality.
That’s the theory, as I understand it, anyway.
Well, I rather have that little problem than short nozzle issue of Oxygen for even higher price tag!Fair point, and you're right about different anatomies and different opinions. But the very fact that even the stock supplied ear tips do NOT stay in place and slide down that long stem during normal use is evidence of significant design oversight, isn't it? The 'slip-stop' rings are a clever solution to a problem that shouldn't exist, at least with IEMs that cost close to $200.
Gonna second that. I've been sleeping with them in the last 2 days and don't even notice them.Moondrop KP is still my favorite IEM for fit and comfort. They just fade away when I put them on. Love the fit.
short nozzles are an immense pain in the butt.
Are you using stock tips..? They slide out after a little while for me, unlike my KZ AS10(stock tips).Moondrop KP is still my favorite IEM for fit and comfort. They just fade away when I put them on. Love the fit.

What would you recommend for a budget($0-300) IEM like the KP, without as much treble fatigue, and significantly more bass/fullness/body?
Besides being so intimate, that DM7 sounds spicy I haven't got to hear any BGVP products yet, sadly!DM7 as an alternative to the Moondrop KP
