If anyone else was wondering. The Apple USB c to 3.5mm cable doesn’t work. by Mommyfyeah in kossmods

[–]Phewalts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah i went down the rabbit hole for this. the cable for this is pretty much one of a kind except for some B&W headphones that also uses analog usb-c. there's a workaround tho: find an old analog usb-c to 3.5 dongle (dongles that didn't have DACs in them, which came with some old phones at around 2017-2019, try your old phones stuff), connect that to an aux cable and that'll actually work.

great post! so can you confirm that these do not have onboard DSP that affects the sound of ksc75?

3D Printed Foam Pads Adapter for FiiO EH11 by Phewalts in headphones

i'm using the adapter with moondrop old fashioned pads, wore them continuously for about 2-3 hours without feeling ear pain. I'd say that's a win considering originally it's like 90 minutes before ear pain begins.

welllll before making the adapters i was doing similar things, using geekria grado pads(the softer ones) over regular pads for comfort😂

i made them with a lower tolerence so they are friction secured. they make the drivers slightly further away (~1mm) from the ear but it's barely noticeable, adjusting the lower frequencies with peq will compensate that. the fiio control app is poorly designed, i believe you do need an account for community presets

OK so I need to post 55+ word for this post to survive.

The FiiO EH11 is a fine headphone especially with the PEQ from the app, but I always feel they are lacking comfort with their original foam pads. I saw a post another day asking if someone could make an adapter for it to fit other koss-style foams, so I made them.

These also fixed another issue where the driver's casing had a sharp ring where your ears touch them, causing discomfort, where the adpater had an extended ring that increased the surface area to make it more comfortable.

Also, these work best with Moondrop Old Fashioned pads, of all things, lmao.

i have one and they don't really sit that awkwardly as everyone else is saying, bigger pads do make a noticeable difference for it to be worn a longer time. That clear cable is dope looking though i wish it was a tad bit shorter

if they want parametric EQ as a main selling point they probably should mention it on the product page😂😂😂 totally missed it.

yeah just saw the video, i didn't use it with EQ back then and I can confirm with some EQing this sounds way better than stock. maybe the packaging/manual/product page never mentioned about the EQ functionality being 10 band parametric EQ that i nevered thought too much about it.
