Hi all,

 

It might be a bit of a long shot does any body have a right bud they are not using. I broke mine while taking the dog for a walk, not the same experience with only one.

 

Cheers

You tried giving Apple a call? Pretty sure they'll replace one.

Thanks, looked into the Apple replacement, it's hard to justify $169 on the bud. Prefer to pay a little less for one second hand.

i gave up on super expensive ear buds a while back. Just roll the $30-50 lenovo ones from ali express. After you have one go thru the washing machine you kind re-evaluate the point of $250+ tiny electical devices :D

Someone here put me on to Soundpeats as I wanted a similar fit (not in ear canal).  They have been brilliant, at a budget price
