It wasn't removable?
I wanted to re-cable my Havi B3 to these as the stock cable is hardening and flaking.

But I got no skills. unsure.gif
If only somebody is willing to help me do it.
There's disassembly tutorials on another forum, though.

Anyway solder it with new cable are easy job, but hard to remove out shell, can be easily spoil the speak, if accident touch to wires connected speaker parts, some more after open out the shell, there are not fitting as 100% already.

Can see these guy with original stock cable are flaking and lack coating on cable.

But make sure you can live with the shell out of shape after fixed it back, due to my lack skills.

The good : enhanced sound quality and easy to used, solved tangled issue, better look like premium.
The bad: damaged the shall and looks.

Not so good with soldering. ohmy.gif

Mine has a glass cover glued to the face & below that are screws, I think it should be less risky?

The result:

Wow oh wow. The difference is astonishing. The dual dynamic drivers with this new OFC cable and no-brand straight jack (although I could opt for a Neutrik L-plug) gave it more life and the airy soundstage is no joke. I've boosted this power hungry IEM with a cute little Hippo Amp and it really baffles me how much the SQ has improved. After doing mine, another friend got his done too. IINM, it was a Hippo Shroom.
