These have had the grill/filter issue since they came out. Even mine popped out when trying to clean them. I think it’s more or less a problem with QC unfortunately 😟.

Mine was clogging up with earwax, which was causing awful channel imbalance. Ended up popping the grill in. Maybe they just didn't embed the grill that stiffly during manufacturing/designing. Shucks.

I'd get a new filter in any new moondrop iem... Moondrops QC is all over the place....

Wouldn't you have to remove the previous filter to replace them though?

the metal part yes, though you could maybe find a part somewhere.... hopefully

I took that out, cleaned them a little with alcohol and stuck them back in. I don't see anywhere that would sell a part that small.
