im gonna do a repair of it though

2017-05-15 07:02:22 UTC  

solder on a new one dood

2017-05-15 07:02:25 UTC  

yerr exactly

2017-05-15 07:02:28 UTC  

i bought a new jack and a wire stripper

2017-05-15 07:02:39 UTC  

is it hard to strip wire with the braided cable + IEM wire being so thin?

2017-05-15 07:03:07 UTC  

braided isnt really a factor since you can unwind usually

2017-05-15 07:03:12 UTC  

thin-ness yeah tho

2017-05-15 07:03:23 UTC  

ye i thought it was gonna be a big pain

2017-05-15 07:03:27 UTC  

ill see how it goes when my stripper comes

2017-05-15 07:03:33 UTC  

i can imagine headphone wire being easy pease

2017-05-15 07:03:37 UTC  

but IEM cables are dam thin

2017-05-15 07:03:39 UTC  

i found a really sharp scalpel is better for thinner IEM cables

2017-05-15 07:03:45 UTC  

oh

2017-05-15 07:03:52 UTC  

better than wire splitters?

2017-05-15 07:03:56 UTC  

i mean stripper*

2017-05-15 07:04:00 UTC  

depends on the strippers

2017-05-15 07:04:03 UTC  

oh ok

2017-05-15 07:04:06 UTC  

mine arent fantastic so it might be why

2017-05-15 07:04:06 UTC  

i got a chink stripper from ebay

2017-05-15 07:04:09 UTC  

was 10 bux

2017-05-15 07:04:13 UTC  

works great for speaker cables n shit

2017-05-15 07:04:16 UTC  

yep yep

2017-05-15 07:04:21 UTC  

but for headphone cabling its just too big

2017-05-15 07:04:27 UTC  

even headphone cables?

2017-05-15 07:04:33 UTC  

depends on the cable

2017-05-15 07:04:37 UTC  

mm ok

2017-05-15 07:04:46 UTC  

ill prob buy a new pair of iems incase..

2017-05-15 07:04:57 UTC  

which do you recommend out of this bunch?

2017-05-15 07:05:07 UTC  

or do you have another recommendation

2017-05-15 07:05:11 UTC  

im happy to spend upto 35 aussie bux

2017-05-15 07:05:17 UTC  

i'm not a fan of ATE's tbh

2017-05-15 07:05:22 UTC  

but that is mostly because of fit

2017-05-15 07:05:31 UTC  

ohh

2017-05-15 07:05:37 UTC  

ZST's and ZS3's are nicer

2017-05-15 07:05:49 UTC  

and removable cable

2017-05-15 07:05:58 UTC  

ATE's were also super midbassy

2017-05-15 07:06:09 UTC  

all KZ iems tend to be but the ATE's just really bothered me with it

2017-05-15 07:06:30 UTC  

ok thanks

2017-05-15 07:06:33 UTC  

whats pricing like on those?

2017-05-15 07:06:40 UTC  

I'd recc ZS3/ZST and the KZ silver cable
