Any help is appreciated.

IS it possible to solder together the earbuds of one set of headphones to the wire of another?
In theory it should work, but you might have noise and interference problems due to shielding issues. Also, the IEMs might not fit in the case from the rectractable 'phones, and I don't understand why you would want to ruin quality earphones with a cheap retracting case from some $1.99 earbuds.
