Thank you for the good pictures and a review.
Plz tell me, this thing can playing loud (without killing the driver)? I saw on the box 100mw is the max power. Some eims can handle just 25mw or less and they cant works on very loud level. (witout killing the driver) But for the street i need a loud thing. Now i use an iem with 50mw and its good on maximum level of my mp4 player. Very loud and i cannot hear the traffic. But its technikaly not a big thing.. I need a better one.
