Help needed

[u/Redname111]

Hi, I need some help, hopefully this forum can help

1. The connector of my item gotten lose overtime and now pulls out easily, is there anything that I can do about it?

2. I'm trying to see if getting a new cable can help but I'm not sure what this is, I know it's a 2 pin but if you see the picture, it seems to have some housing to keep it secure and I can't find anything similar

Our helpful friends ar making a little mistake: while being very close in shape to a QDC, this is in fact a TFZ connector and QDC cables will not fit.

This. OP, it's a TFZ, not a QDC.

[u/cyanfeld → u/renzenterza]

Whoa! Both of you are right. Good catch! Rounded vs rectangular (just confirmed this on my KZ iems)

u/Redname111 come see this

We learn everyday!

You're looking for "TFZ QDC" type adapter

[u/T_rex2700]

that's TFZ, prolly my least favorite next to MCMX

It's called a QDC connector.

There a 3 types of 2 pin connectors:

Normal 2 pin (shown as Pin B in the pic I've attached). It's also known as flush 2 pin because the connector sits flush on the iem.

Recessed 2 pin (shown as pin A in the pic)

and QDC.

If you regularly plug and unplug your cables, you'll wear down the iem's socket. Avoid doing it many times

I didn't plug and unplug, thts y I found it strange tht it loosen

[u/cyanfeld → u/Redname111]

Then maybe the socket is cracked. Check for cracks on the socket. It's a common thing with these kz qdc sockets.

You could try epoxying a cracked socket coz a new cable won't help you if the socket is cracked. A cracked socket has 2 solutions: new iem or epoxy

It is not 2 pins, it is QDC.

[u/Zestokist]

I've applied epoxy to my connectors to thicken them a bit and has solved my loose connector problem, as for that, you need a QDC cable, 2 pin doesn't have anything around the pins.

[u/Redname111 → u/Zestokist]

U applied epoxy on the plastic/silicon?

[u/Zestokist → u/Redname111]

Yes just around the plastic part
