In this video I show off a couple recent projects, explain a little bit of my tuning methods and whatnot and show off my collection of parts and pieces. enjoy!
Really nice shells and covers! My friend, i want to try to build a custom iem but i have so many questions... If its possible, id like to know what types of uv resin do you use to make the shells. I have seen a lot of videos where they use two types, one to make the shell and another to do a shinny final coat but nobady seys what the use... Thanks man ❤
If you want to figure out the "smarter" way to test, you could set up pots to adjust resistance on the fly so you can tune your x-over/response curve without swapping components.
Yeah, I've thought about this. Fearless audio actually does this with one of their iem's. My main problem is finding pots that are small enough or finding a connector big enough to handle all of the conductors. Right now I've found the easiest way is to just set up the iem on a rig connected to the coupler so I can swap out drivers/tube lengths/dampeners on the fly which makes it easier to build/tune an iem without using as many crossover components.
I would love to do this but Im not sure where to start learning so that I know what Im doing when I start to build... or have some form of educated clue... do you have any advice of where to start?
Hi Friend! at 5:16 We can see a IEM Filled inside with Resin, a beautiful solid piece, but It Doesn't harm the drives? I would like to make just like this!
The CIEM look wayy too deep inserted, I have custom molds of eartips that barely enter the ear canal and they provide already perfect seal for the sound. Could cutting down the nozzle help you for the build?? Looking at the shape I don't even know how your customer could insert this resin mold back into his ear. CIEM is something I could be interested to request for a next upgrade (as a owner of a P5 the design flair is something I wish to reconsider)
You could be right. They are my first ciem project so I am sending them to the user for their opinion on fit before making the CIEM. I thought about cutting down the nozzle but I tried inserting them into my ear and they actually fit okay.
Thanks bro. If I sold them it would probably be in the $150 range. their performance is really good but I'm still not quite happy with the tuning. It's like 85% there though.
I wish.. eventually I will sell some. I've sold a few in the past but I'm extremely picky and it's hard make them well enough to sell. It still takes me a long time to make. :-/
It depends, what size and material are you looking for? I know a few good ones but it depends on what diaphragm material you want. Also the shell is pretty important. My friend has a free shell you can 3D print that works well with some DD but not all.
@@hi-friaudioman Hello,the diaphragm material is not important and the size,the main sound quality,I bought kz headphones on Aliexpress,the right one is wheezing,the right speaker is faulty 10mm,the seller refused to return the money,allegedly because I can't prove that it is faulty,so I need two speakers with high-quality sound to replace myself
What i would do is sleave all drivers channels to a breadcrumb and play with ASP tuning there until finalization. I honestly can't wait when multichannel DAC+DSP cables would become a thing. Finalizing all that inside a shell without a way to tune feels as such an outdated way to do the thing.
You seriously if we don't know how is your diy. Man. Watching you is like wathing a horror movie when the beautiful woman gets killed. In this case the iem. All popcorn are on the floor
excited to your journey man. your works is pretty interesting. I can see you on top in IEM field
⬆️⬆️⬆️congratulations you are among our shortlisted winners claim your reward🎁.
super cool stuff. i think the engineering and time and craft that goes into making iems is amazing. would love to purchase a set from you some day!
Keep the videos coming. They are always educational and interesting. Extremely truthful.
Amazing. I found myself a new hobby. Watching you building IEMs.
Can you tell me what capacitor is needed so that the DD (32ohm) does not play above 200 Hz. thanks in advance!

This is amazing engineering!

Eyyy these are my shell designs at 18:38 😄 I see you got my first planar shell too, made another version of it that actually sounds good.
Oh no way?!? You make those? Cool shells bro. Yeah I printed out a couple to play arund with.

great little startup 🙂

Is there a place where we can purchase these? I’ve been looking for an independent IEM company to make some for me.
What an amazing Project
I thought the neon 4 looked familiar, I've seen it in person. You did a great job btw!
Oh nice! Thank you. 🙏

If selling, how much would you sell a pair of these for,?I'm interested and in the UK
do you do customize metal nozzle? and where can you buy? Love always your teardown ❤️
Sometimes I use metal nozzle. You can find them on Aliexpress.
Mister do you think you can mod a 7th Timeless driver to fit into a different mold like one of your customs?
Hi, yes I could do that, I'm not sure if it would sound good but I can fit most driver under 15mm.
The CIEM look wayy too deep inserted, I have custom molds of eartips that barely enter the ear canal and they provide already perfect seal for the sound.
Could cutting down the nozzle help you for the build??

Hey man these look amazing how much would you sell these fore if you did sell them?

Seriously, are you planning to sell custom IEMs? I am interested.

@@hi-friaudioman Do not make them too perfect. There is a great deal of charm having something handmade.
Love this
hello, where can I buy a good dynamic driver, which one do you recommend?
It depends, what size and material are you looking for? I know a few good ones but it depends on what diaphragm material you want. Also the shell is pretty important. My friend has a free shell you can 3D print that works well with some DD but not all.

shure iem design are nice....
Do you daily drive any of your own projects?
this is dope
Raw carbon fiber, our version of high tech asbestos :) (very impressive!)
Lmao. Yes! Very dangerous. I am very careful with it. I always use gloves and a respirator when handling raw carbon fiber or grinding it.
Puchasing link next😍😍
