If it’s leaking from the inside, it may be that the polymer never properly cured and is still liquid on the interior. You could try returning it as defective, or just shell out for a new cable

Hot take: They’re IEMs, so they’re garbage nonetheless. For a proper soundstage, over ear open- or semi-open-backs are the only way to go.
That said, I understand the need for a smaller headphone if you just need something playing in your ears during exercise or at work, which is perfectly fine so long as you’re not making them your primary pair of headphones.

Headphones do not provide soundstage.

Don’t toss your articles at me; I may not have phrased my comment the way you wanted me to (due to ADHD), but I know what I’m about, son.
If your pinna is being bypassed, you can’t get proper 3D audio without faking it in software. Plain and simple. That’s the point I’m making. Nothing more.
