It will hardly survive a week.
We have recabling options for 1xx or even mmcx detachability option but 232 is a mess. We still can make cable (with stock cable as the source of earphone pins) but it looks not very attractive at joint points.

Well, bad news. My right side finally gave out, and the left side is barely working. :'(

I don't care about the cable's aesthetics as long as the fit and sound aren't impacted. Could you fix my stock cable? How much would it cost?

What are you people driving your Phonaks with? Are you using smartphones or high quality DAPs, can pfe232 benefit from separate amplification?

When I was researching these, it was mentioned they sound best with an amp. I bought mine (PFE111) bundled with a Fiio e6. Sounded great, sounds even better with my e12a

Yes, pfe232 are best when amped. I used to have them and the only reason I sold them is because it needed an amp to really shine. I used them at my home desk with a Sony Pha2 amp.

Thanks a bunch for your replies!

I bought the Questyle QPR1 solely because it sounded so good with PFE232.

Cables are a bit tricky because there's a couple of resistors sealed in the splitter. Apparently the PFE sound kind of lousy without them. Not to mention the size of the drivers you need to solder to. Those things a freakin tiny. I was planning on doing a recable on my old pair, but because of the above mentioned points I realized it was way outside my skill set. IIRC some folks here have done recables so maybe do a back search of the thread and hopefully you can find some helpful info.

Do you happen to know what resistor values were used?

Its been so long, I honestly don't remember. Search the thread, it should be mentioned somewhere

I just happen to recable my pfe 112(mod it with 2 pin connector). Someone on the thread said it's 27 ohm so I tried 27 ohm and 32 ohm, not so much a difference between two, actually I can't hear the difference when testing them.

Anyone have black filters for sale?

Hi,

I have loads of different filters, some 232 cables and actual 232 BNIB.

Hello.

I still have my PFE232 but now both cables are deteriorated, with many cracks and the internal wire exposed. It happened due to the time and decay of the material, since there were not exposed to the elements or sun in any way. That's bad.

Well, are there alternative cables to these?

 

[mefxes]

I just found this link.

I like the 3rd pic idea. Maybe it's a solution.

Hi everyone!

I've been rocking my pfe since 2011 but all my black filters died (tried cleaning solutions etc but they are somehow damaged..).

Is anyone please selling some black filters? I'll be really grateful, thank you!!

Hi, will Etymotic tri-flange tips fit with Audeo PFE? I am looking for tips with a little deeper application to slightly improve isolation (I am aware that I won't do miracles).
I am also considering filling Audeo tips with foam of Comply or similar, it worked few times and I am going to check that out.
