Thanks @ChrisOc, that's helpful and reassuring. Last question is whether they protrude much out from canal, precluding sleeping with them in which I do at times w/IEM's.I think I also have small ears, although I have not tried measuring them against other people's ears
More importantly, in spite of the size of the TRI I3 ear pieces, I have not read or heard of a single complaint relating to fit. They are very comfortable and have good isolation.
My guess is that if you don't like them because of how they fit someone would buy them off you.
In any case, tomorrow is Labor day holiday here in US, doubt this will lead to any sales on these imported beauties but if not I'll just order from AliExpress and the wait will begin.
I lied, I do have one more question. Considering an MMCX to 2.5 TRRS cable to run them balanced from my FiiO BTR5....NICEHCK C16-5 or KBear Rhyme...has anyone tried one or both?
