Just to publicly restate a bit of what we discussed, I though the highlights of the 3 were the amount of texture and detail in the bass, without losing an impactful and dynamic presentation; and the midrange which was ever-so-slightly upfront, making for an engaging listen. I look forward to the eventual release of the 3 to see how it does. My preference for color would probably be gunmetal.

Also, Doug, I think you do a great job representing Westone, and you were a real pleasure to meet and converse with. Westone should be proud to have you as part of their team.

Yes, thanks very much Doug! It was a pleasure meeting with you. The new 3 sounds great. I'm very interested to give them a more extended listen, but what I heard briefly was very nice. Congrats on the new product!
