This looks a bit odd...
My understanding of CIEMs is that they're molded to fit your ear. Is this foam just to help them stay in, or create a seal? Or was there a mistake with the production?

That is an interesting mod, for sure, and as we might physiologically change over time, could certainly be useful.

BA0701Necessity prompted it. I’ve had more success with UIEMs than CIEMs. With rigid acrylic CIEMs (I’ve never tried silicone CIEMs), when I open my mouth or smile, it breaks the seal on the right, and my ear canal is finicky on the left. I’ve been making do with applying some dental wax, but that can be a pain, and is still not great. Now, with the foam rings, the seal is perfect, and talking/smiling doesn’t change the seal at all. In general, I haven’t liked foam tips due to having to hold the IEM for a while, while it seals. With the CIEMs, you just put them in, and they stay in the correct position, then the foam just gradually expands.

joeftanI believe we are both saying precisely the same thing. At least, what you said was my intended translation, with the physiological change part. Yes, our ears are constantly changing, as do the rest of us, and that is precisely the biggest reason I have never purchased any CIEM. Get around the holidays put on a few pounds, beginning of the year drop a few, etc... I could easily see them getting tighter and looser over time, for sure. That was thinking outside of the box you did there, and the most important thing, it works precisely as intended.

More bass!
I currently have the the HD 6XX, which sound great but, I'm am looking to upgrade the power of the bass as i really enjoy punchy low end EDM music. Any suggestions in the $200-$300 price range would be awesome.

Trying to add Topping LA90D amp to Topping A9D preamp
Any help would be appreciated...I added an amp to my streamer, dac, headphone amp/preamp system and am now not getting any music through the headphone jacks on the preamp - the specifics: Wiim Pro Plus - optical connection to - Topping D50 iii dac - TSR to XLR connection to - Topping A9D headphone amp/preamp (all worked fine as a headphone amp until I tried adding:) - XLR connection to - Topping LA90 D amp. Amp switches are set to bypass, stereo, low gain. In this configuration, I am not getting any music to either my SE or XLR headphone jacks. I made sure I switched the A9D to "preamp" and "xlr" modes. I have no idea what I might be overlooking or missing...any thoughts would be deeply appreciated! Thank you.

Mic not working pc38x
I just got my pc38x in the mail today and the out put is quiet but fine and I'm happy. But the mic will not work when on my Xbox series and I was wondering if this issue can be resolved or if the head set is not compatible with Xbox.
