did a quick search and I see the SBAF earbud/flathead thread from 2016 and a few head-fi posts from 2009 that used that term.
Guess I missed the memo, :P
I'll call them flathead earbuds I guess....

They've been called flatheads for a long time. I'm old, I was there when the types of earphones you're talking about were all that was available and colloquially called earbuds, sometimes even by...

never heard of flathead. googling head-fi points to it being a recent name and interchangable with earbud.

Lmao? I mean honestly, I really doubt it. Most people underestimate the force it takes to connect or disconnect MMCX. There is a removal tool for a reason. You weren't just trying to point that out...

Semantics. I was just pointing out it is possible that not all Mmcx connector cables will work on these. I am done here.

I consider earbuds to be nonsealing and don't go into the ear canal. Airpods vs airpod pro.
Wired is preferred. Used to use sennheiser mx500s.

I promise I'm not trying to actually you, but "earbuds" are iems.
I'm going to assume that you're talking about wireless/ bt/ tws earphones (feel free to correct me). If that is correct however,...

I've seen multiple posts saying regular cables won't work for the n5005 without an adapter. I don't care whether you believe it or not.

Reread what you just posted and think about that. It's a standard mmcx terminal. The only way a given mmcx cable/ wireless adapter wouldn't fit, is if it was too wide to clear the shell (which *very*...

AKG is completely out of touch with the IEM market.
