you cover a hole with tape

2018-10-15 16:33:37 UTC  

that's literally it

2018-10-15 16:33:45 UTC  

after listening for 30 seconds my ears started tripping out

2018-10-15 16:33:52 UTC  

but the difference holy shit

2018-10-15 16:37:03 UTC  

🅱

2018-10-15 16:37:05 UTC  

Sounds lovely for my ears

2018-10-15 16:37:56 UTC  

Does it sound more "beats" than beats by Dre itself?

2018-10-15 16:42:31 UTC  

not really

2018-10-15 16:42:39 UTC  

but i learned it's pretty dangerous to listen to them that way

2018-10-15 16:46:13 UTC  

So it compresses your ear drum?

2018-10-15 16:49:25 UTC  

Kek

2018-10-15 16:58:41 UTC  

you can avoid that by just yawning

2018-10-15 16:58:52 UTC  

same way you pop your ears when youre in a tall ass elevator or whatever

2018-10-15 16:59:17 UTC  

Hol up the beat is about to drop *Yawns*

2018-10-15 17:00:00 UTC  

Good boy 12

Pressure would build up in part 2 but I guess the depressuring of 12 would reverse it?

2018-10-15 17:02:10 UTC  

ye

2018-10-15 17:02:21 UTC  

also the seal isnt perfect in iems anyway so itll depressurise over time

2018-10-15 17:02:32 UTC  

its pretty much irrelevant if you insert your iems properly anyway

2018-10-15 17:02:58 UTC  

like etys are 100% sealed and i dont have issues with ear pressure shit

2018-10-15 17:03:02 UTC  

Yeah about seals, is double flangle or some other seal meme worth it?

2018-10-15 17:03:16 UTC  

Only a single tip doesn't seal properly

2018-10-15 17:03:27 UTC  

depends on the iem and your ear

2018-10-15 17:04:03 UTC  

Actual benefits for wearing more than one flangle?

2018-10-15 17:04:18 UTC  

Some headfi's claim it chances the soundsignature

2018-10-15 17:04:43 UTC  

multiple areas that seal against the canal

2018-10-15 17:04:51 UTC  

so you get a better seal and higher isolation

2018-10-15 17:05:12 UTC  

issue is that bi/tri flange tips are often longer, which will affect the sound

2018-10-15 17:05:34 UTC  

whether the affect is positive or negative is entirely down to the iem and your own preferences

2018-10-15 17:05:57 UTC  

And then there is opening up an iem and closing it with tape/cotton

2018-10-15 17:34:04 UTC  

buy ety or diy using shady taobao BA's and 3d printer at uni

2018-10-15 17:34:14 UTC

2018-10-15 17:34:51 UTC  

I even have female mmcx jacks

2018-10-15 17:34:59 UTC

2018-10-15 17:46:24 UTC  

ull want the knowles filters as well

2018-10-15 18:37:20 UTC  

yincrows r good

2018-10-15 18:43:51 UTC  

I liked the x6's, I think these are mostly the same but better built.

2018-10-15 18:46:28 UTC  

apparently they sound slightly better too but i havent confirmed

2018-10-15 18:46:33 UTC
