Interesting. Which headphones /earplugs are you trying with ? I did notice the slight increase in bass but not a massive loss of detail. All it should be doing is creating a seal in the ear so can't see why there'd be such a difference
Kirth-
2 earphones with large aperture ports: Aurisonics Rockets and Beyerdynamic 101 dtx. I also used basic memory foam earplugs from the DIY store, think they were 90p for a big bag.
Will try them with my Westone UM3X and the Sony XBA H1 I have in the draw. (I know, far too many IEMs)
I think it's a case of experimenting with the length you cut the foam.

tried the hacked foam earplug trick. Hmm, getting poor results. Massive loss of detail and overly bloated bass - this is on two different earphones...
