Good eyes!  I was using Comply tips, but I like the way these sound better.

No need for recabling when the cable is removable...he just upgrades the cable I think.

 
 
You are correct.  The cable is listed under the pic, it's a Moon Audio Silver Dragon V1.

This is the only Moon Audio IEM cable I've ever had, I don't know if previous iterations were braided or not.  Maybe someone with more experience with this brand can chime in.

Its the silver dragon- looks TPU ...

Sorry, my bad, i have some explaining to do... I thought they weren't removable/upgradable... And I failed to see it was a Moon Audio (rig is so nice, I forrgot to read the captions)...  Of course it's not braided cuz it's not a regular Westone cable... It looks TPU coated, like the cable of my VC02.. . .
 
Anyway, sorry people.. . That was embarrassing... . My bad..

They have stages? What does it do? If i want it to have nice performance without amp, which stage do you reccomend?

If you want the best SQ now , it is better directly mod stage 2

I will upgrade from stage 1 to stage 2 this Saturday

I assume stg1 bypasses the 22 ohm resistor, but what's stg 2 ???

Rudi we must have details !

Everytime I see these IEMs, I wonder why nobody is putting tips on them....I don't get it.

They are designed to be open. More like mini-near field monitors as opposed to true 'in ear' monitors.

That sounds exotic.
And how do they fit? How is the seal? Do you just stuff the bore into your ear like that? Looks painful...
But on the other hand, these things cost so bloody much that (whoever builds them) won't make any stupid design choices.
