Echobox Finder X1 Titanium Earphones Review
June 6, 2016 Comments Off on Echobox Finder X1 Titanium Earphones Review
The smoothness of the entire enclosure is enabled by a subtle feature: the cable strain relief is actually inside the enclosure. The cable emerges from a small grommeted porthole, colored to indicate left and right channels. I haven’t tried intentionally pulling on the cable to test the strength of the configuration, but I’ve felt no looseness in any of my day-to-day use. This configuration also allows the freedom to wear the Finder X1 cable-down or cable-up and over-ear. The cable is made from silver-plated copper and sheathed in a smoky translucent casing that pairs well with the color of the titanium. It’s smooth and pliable with a slight tendency to hold its shape. However, it also seems remarkably resistant to tangling, which is a huge plus for me. The cable can have some slight microphonics at times, but I don’t find it particularly egregious or even intrusive. What little there is can generally be alleviated with a good seal and/or wearing the IEM’s over-ear. The cable is terminated in a straight, gold-plated 1/8” TRS plug. The plug is housed in metal as well, adding to the overall quality of the unit.”
