These things were my babies! I intended to use them for commuting, but because of the pandemic they primarily lived in my ears at a desk or couch and right back into the supplied case otherwise. No kids/pets so I doubt they were knocked about with me unaware. Yup, sent an email and heard back...- jjflemin

Unique Melody Bone Conduction Family (MEST&MEXT and their siblings) Announcement and Impression Thread.
Well, I am just having my first issue with my MEST Mk2. I've had them since March 2021 and when I put them on at my desk today noticed some distortion on the R side. Then I noticed a rattling sound when moving my head around. When taking off the IEM a light shake reproduces the rattling sound so...- jjflemin

Made myself a new short cable with miniaturized mini-xlr. Mostly this was a case of "I did it because I could, not because I should". Surprisingly sounds pretty good balanced out of the Qudelix and is nice when I don't want to be tied to my desktop. The other cool thing is I can leave it...- jjflemin

I don't tknow if it is them exactly, but I have used the Redco HP3C in a few builds which look very similar.- jjflemin

On first use I felt like it took 20-30 minutes with intermittent pushing to get the xelastec tips fully adjusted to my ear canals. Then another few minutes with each use to get the best fit. I also had to use the smallest size when I would normally use a medium or medium small tip to get the...- jjflemin

I was worried about the same thing and ended up drawing up a piece that attaches to the cable. I don't have CAD skills, but sent it to a friend who printed this for me (more pictures of the part). Have been using it for roughly a year now with good results and no danger to the wood. This was a...- jjflemin

I had the Aeon 2 for a bit at the same time as my VC. With full leather pads they are comparable. I mostly use hybrid Auteur pads which does decrease the isolation a little bit. Still have trouble hearing someone trying to get my attention with moderate volume music.- jjflemin

Just jumped on the Mk2 in 2.5mm. One of my sources is 1/4 in only and I would like to have some flexibility. Does anyone have a recommended 2.5mm Female to 1/4in Male adaptor? Doesn't seem like there are a ton of options.- jjflemin

I wanted to try R2R and Schiit had b-stock at the time. Plus it stacks so nicely with the Lyr 3 which I already had. And what's the point if it's not aesthetic? Honestly I would still like to try a D90 or similar for comparison, but I have been quite happy with the Bifrost 2 so I haven't had...- jjflemin

Currently using a Lyr 3 from a Bifrost 2, or an iFi Micro BL. Haven't tried anything fancier and am afraid to expand my horizons too much. Plan on building a Bottlehead crack later this year which will be my first non-hybrid tube amp.- jjflemin

If the side stayed the same with a cable L and R swap then it could be the source or the headphones. If a different source fixes it, likely the source. If nothing fixes it, send ZMF an email!- jjflemin
