Step Lines

-[* black] Before we're trying to find a way inside those plugs, we remove the commonly replaceable silicon eartips.
- [* black] The eartips are sled over an oval groove at the outside of the earbud head and provide a relatively large opening for sound.
- [* black] Since these are sled over tips, they should be replaceable with any aftermarket tips you prefer as long the oval socket fits the groove of the ear (1). A small bonus point goes to ... ''Nothing''?
-[* black] Since the vise and heating procedure was a good choice in [link|https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Samsung+Galaxy+Buds2+Teardown/144874%7C|previous headphone teardowns|new_window=true] and the white head is the only part of the buds we can't see through, we decide to put a little bit of pressure on the ear (1).
- [* black] Surprisingly the earplugs are cooperative and with the help of a [product|IF145-374-1|halberd spudger|new_window=true] we can throw an eye on the before hidden components.
