Thanks, I'll try that!

Ok, this is getting ridiculous..
I started checking my IEMs from time to time when a filter AGAIN went missing yesterday.
Turns out it's the right one that spits em out. Checked it after a few hours of use, and the filter is clearly on its way out.
Man this sucks

I'm curious to know too. also is there a shipping fee charged? and are they still waiving the restocking fee?

I want a family member to try these, but alas he is too far away to try my pair.

How is it getting out? On my pair, the filter could not escape through the hole in the sleeve, it would not fit. Confused about how they disappear. Where do they go? Check with Phonak and see if you can get a replacement pair. The rim of the phone must be outside the specs. I haven't had a filter fall out, but it seems the tips sort of hold them in place. But I guess that's not happening for you.

It just, like, falls out. When I checked it after a couple of hours, the filter was totally out of position, like when I looked into the tube, it looked something like this (/) if that makes any sense to you. And I made sure to secure both filters in place.

 

[tstarn06]

Weird. Maybe just ask them for a new pair. I would.

I have to try these black filters everyone speaks of one day..... The T4 and PFE is like audio crack.... Sooz, you probably have a telescope out looking for the post man

Lol

Îf you really like the detail and have a good seal, you will only hear things going muddy -at list that is what I think when I change filters-

I am sticking with the gray filters, plus my black ones came defective... (waiting for reply of retailer)

 

[tstarn06]

Hmm, I just don't see it that way. I like the black filters and I'm not alone. All part of the Phonak Phun (oops, a Philly thing). You know, the Phanatic.

 

[Bullseye]

I did not *mean I hated black filters, only that I prefer the detail in the mids and highs instead of a more pronounced bass.

I was exaggerating, as the differences are not so big, however after going back and forth between both that is the simplest feeling I get about black filters.

In conclusion, this IEMs, are a joy to listen to, whether black or gray/grey

.

Ive ordered some wire guides from Phonak. When ordering from the USA are they coming from Switzerland or is there a distibution warehouse somewhere in the States. Its not been too long but Im looking foreward to them and Phonak gave no tracking information and shipped them USPS first class. I was just wondering mostly where they are shipped from.

Don't forget to burn-in the amps... You can daisy chain them to burn-in at the same time - feed DAP into one, then into the other, then into the earphones.
