Default Any one got a spare pair of earbuds/repair tips?
Ok so in all honesty I've had this player for about a week, and was in short LOVING the bundled earphones
That was until the rubber ear padding came off one of them
Anyway, Amazon's sold out, so no replacements ahoy there
Was just wondering if anyone had a spare pair to sell/knew where to get stuff like this repaired?
I mean I don't even know who I could pay to try and repair it, or if it would work
Thanks a tonne

Those aren't the tips that come with the X, but, yeah, that's all you need.

Maybe the diagram don't show it- it's the circular rubber-coated ear sealers below the tips that are damaged

Can you glue it back on then? The only other answer is to get new n/c earphones and I think Sony charges a lot..You may want to upgrade your iems, anyway.

Those came off mine too, but I just took of the other one too to make them both look the same. They aren't really needed are they?

I don't really mind...

Sony wants about 35$ for them, but they're out of stock...

Yeah, thats a common problem with those sony headphones. I just ignored it, but then again I only used those headphones for working in the most extreme conditions.
