Ah! I see, thanks! Can you tell me the difference between the different versions for the 1a and 1z? I'm using the 1z firmware on a 1a and I am looking for a smooth, warm but "holographic" signature, something that is the opposite of sibilant. Thanks again!

For me, 1A produced a warmer sound. I was on 1Z using Orion 5 and also Orion 9. But then I switched back to 1A and Orion 5 was superbly warm and smooth. Orion7 took that to a better place. With more resolve and details yet still warm. Never sibilant as I’m treble sensitive myself.
I also switched back to 1A and i had a same impression. I feel that 1A has deeper bass ,3D while the 1Z has speeder bass, clean and more details. Moreover, the mid of 1Z is thinner, fly more, smoother than 1A. The treb is also sprakle, attractive.
I may be wrong but maybe the different components of the 1z may compensate for the 1z signature on the 1z vs 1z signature on the 1a, which is why it sounds cleaner on the 1a, but probably more "fuller" on the 1z.

I never owned mdr z1r and I never liked it eather. Yes I am talking about ier-z1r stock cable is brighter in comparison with ares ii 8 wires from effect audio. I found the custom cable brought the treble a good 2 db down it was good for my ears.
That was paired with stock 1z dap!
When I paired the the stock cable with ier z1r with another dap it was cayin n6ii amp a01 and treble was less bright vs 1z.
Though by all means custom cables always improves sq of iems or headphones
Obviously having not heard that particular cable I can’t comment on what it does vs the stock cable, however I tried the Sony Kimber at it was clearly inferior to the stock cable while on the Z5 the Sony Kimber was clearly superior to their stock cable
The earbuds keep falling off, and this is with the smallest SS size that fits me. The S rubber size still seems a tad too big for my eyes as the insides hurt when I use them. Styrofoam versions didn’t fit in either. It’s like my ears in particular are cursed. So I just find ways to work around the shortcomings.

oh so the buds fall out of you ears when you move ?
well that's hardly a fault of the cable but simply that the buds are so big and heavy compared to how well you are able to seat them in your ear. In my big ear they sit deep and rock solid with Final Audio E LL tips

I got small ears. So they can’t fit so snugly. The WF are now my to go IEMs along with the Soundcore Liberty Pro 2. But reading how long BT eats into the battery of the 1Z, iPhone 11 Pro is a good enough BT source

Unfortunately, I missed to download the model switcher. Now it is no longer available on the former source. Please could someone provide me a valid download link (also welcomed via pm). Thanks a lot in advance for that!

My favorite is also the Final E. Just recently found another which works even better, the AZLA SednaEarfitLight. It comes in:
10.4mm SS
11.2mm S
11.9mm MS
12.6mm M
13.3mm ML
14mm L
Measure the size of the SS you are using, and try to find one a little larger, so it will seal properly and stay in the ear. The bass and the rest of the sound will also improve if you get a good seal. Many peoplecan vouch for how important it is to get a good seal, to get the most out of the IEM, so definitely worth the extra effort to find a tip that will work for your ears.
