I've got the same exact setup! Using Hifiman XSs with an Ananda headband. I also use it to power my bookshelf speakers. Magni Heresey + Modi is such an awesome kit for the price

Reply to comment by Canam82 in Is this corrosion? I’ve been using these for roughly a month. They are rated as iP57 but I still did not expose to water directly. The only time they get wet are when I clean them (roughly 3:10 dilution ipa to water, very conservative amount on microfiber cloth and wiped) and if I sweat. by DecayableRadiologist

I got rid of it using 99% ipa. Does it come back or was this just a one time thing?

That's what it looks like, although it's very easy to get rid of with a pencil eraser.

Bet.

As a side note (more of a general question). If it was corrosion and cleaned off, will it return again and again? I guess this applies to other things as well.
