Nope, cos Shure have up to E5 and there is no such thing as a 5 driver IEM (nor do shure have a 4 driver IEM), therefore I didn't think twice about it. However, with Klipsh, it went C1, C2 and C3, which would lead any resonable person to think it is 1 driver, 2 drivers and 3 drivers. The other issue with "custom" is just a whole different story, I personally feel it shouldn't be called this, don't know about advertising laws there, but down under, this would probably go to the consumer protection agency as misleading advertising.

Anyhow, now that its too late to change the name, ill get over it and look forward to the reviews on the final products.
