It is no likely a fall like that will damage the IEM. Just listen to it, if it doesn't sound anything out of the ordinary, you should be fine. What worry me more is the high price tag you have paid for it

I find dynamic earphones less sensitive to malfunction in mishaps over armatures, so that's a good thing with your CX550.

what do you mean by " (especially in this case)"?
if you mean about my dropped earphone,its not really big deal.
since the earphone is light and its fall not very high,so the impact i think not strong enough to damage the internal component.and it sound no different like before.

also i make a bit research on the internet about dynamic earphone and i see the electronic component inside it is compact altogether and there is no part that can loosen from such an impact.

correct me if im wrong..

Before Jaben M'sia, there are Hi-fi stores in KL that also sell good headphone, but generally higher in price. Headphone hunting is just easier to do online (forum and such). Good thing I live at the Southern end of the peninsular
