That was actually one of the first things I did when I got them earlier this year. I’m kind of a weirdo in that I will remove the mesh on all of my IEMs that have a wax guard/mesh screen to see how they perform. I can attest that the H40’s opened up substantially and became more coherent with screen removal. I never replaced mesh because of how good it sounds. If I did, I found some mesh guards on AE (see below) that I can throw on.

Also, the author of that post said this, “5 minutes tricks change your $200 IEMs sounded like $500 ones, goes from $300 sounds. Seriously.” I personally would never make these claims, but I share this sentiment especially if you use Xelastec ear tips.

I’ve never removed the mesh guard from any of my IEMs. So you highly recommend I do with the H40? Is it made to be removed and replaced or is it like… Once it’s removed it’s never going back on?

Did you listen to the H40 with the mesh on? Was it a night and day difference? Thx!

@Chocolate_Bear

I’m just not a foam guy.

You and me both!

For me it was definitely night and day. Hold off on the Xelantec’s and use the stock tips just so you can hear the sound signature as intended for a few hours (or however long it takes you to get acclimated with the sound). Once you remove the mesh and add the Azla’s, you may not want to go back to stock.

Damn, totally hi-jacked this thread. Someone start up an ISN H40 thread! I’m stuck in a Zoom meeting for the next two hours.

Am I allowed to just ask if anyone is interested in buying my pair of the Mangird Teas or is it not allowed? I don’t wanna start something that isn’t allowed.

Buy/Sell and Looking for Thread

Looking to sell my Audioquest Nighthawks and XDuoo XD-05 Plus (Silver)! Hoping to sell them both together for a total of 350$ incl. shipping from SEA (but I’m more than happy to negotiate). But if someone wants to buy only one of the two I’ll try to see to it. Nighthawks info: Bought in Jan 2020, worn primarily with velour pads which I have now freshly washed. Comes with all the accessories, and the leather pads are still very new. Good condition as far as the eye can see XD-05 info: Bought…

[AntDel]

Thank you
I’m gonna look it over and see how it works

So azla tips work great for me, improved the sound more than the foam tips, agree they are a little stiff but a good seal. Stage and seperation is awesome. And mid vocals are lush and right there haha

Awesome. I think I’m done with foam. They just can’t compete with silicone for serious listening, although their comfort is great.

The Azla tips are the best tips I’ve found that increase the perceived size of the sound stage, but because of the dense silicone, I find getting a perfect seal in my ears with them just doesn’t work that well. I prefer soft silicone for a really strong seal. I wish I could find some wide bore tips with the soft silicone like the Spinfits. That would be the ultimate tip IMO.

[Bmn1251]

Yea that would be really nice. Happy with the azla though, just a little weird on the left still but not as bad as other silicone tips. And sound is just great

I found them. I didn’t know Azla had the different types of wide bore tips.

[Bmn1251]

Oh perfect haha…although i do like the sound of their regular tips and light tips might take away too much hmmm

[Ohmboy]

I think that just lets you know what nozzle sizes fit with the different hardness’s of tips?..different hardness will also effect the sound too so it’s a bit of a

1. Nothing can be matched with this monster in this price.
2. Small unit though it has 1dd and 6ba.
3. Bass and treble is a bit emphasized.
4. Nothing to say… BUY IT.

Buy/Sell and Looking for Thread

Figured since a few people have been using this section to sell things already why not make a thread to post stuff we’re trying to get rid of. at least until there is a proper classified section implemented. If this is not allowed please just delete this… although I’m not even sure there are actual mods active on this site in the first place to even care haha I’m currently selling a bunch of stuff over at r/avexchange, check it out and feel free to pm me here if that’s better for you, thanks fo…

@ISN Audio H40 3BA+1 Dynamic Driver Hybrid In-Ear Monitors (IEM)

I purchased this set expecting I wouldn’t enjoy it as much as the Mangird Tea, but I heard they were very similar in tonality so I said what could it hurt? I love the Mangird so why not check out the H40?

Thanks, gotta check!
