One other question, if you please. Is the length of the cable the same as the UM2s as well as the length from the earpiece to the Y connection?

Also glad to hear its a new case, I cut that little loop thingy off my case. Yech.

Haha, thanks for the update ph0und. I agree with you on the margin stuff. It's not so realistic to include a bunch of extras for your asking price (or at least I'd imagine).

I'm glad you're focused on getting it right the first time. I guess I can wait for mid-summer (or late summer if it goes that way). Thanks again.

I feel for you guys that are waiting for the customs. I can hardly wait for the universals to come out this month! I probably check this thread fives times a day looking for updates.

I can't believe it... I've only been a member of head-fi for a week and I'm already exhibiting stalker-like symptoms.

I was wondering why you folks would do this as well, but hoped it was some special arrangement you had w/ Head-Fi for putting the thread on their main page for so long :-P

Not sure if your marketing department has a budget for this, but they might consider giving away a few in a drawing for head-fi posters in this thread in return for the the posters putting up reviews of them at product launch...I'd even put the review up in my tech blog ;-)

We actually pay to have this thread on Head-fi.

As for the "freebies" that already happened. There are 10 secret (no I'm not naming them) participants in a 3Custom Beta program. When we start the final development of the 3custom they are all going to get a set and then post their feedback here in the forums. Right now we are at ALPHA (that is what I have now). They are good but not good enough. Once the Westone 3 launches the custom program will kick into gear.

I really want IEMs but don't want to wait for mid summer for customs, you might rape me for both!

I like the preemptive denial for all those who might ask, haha (or perhaps you've been PM'ed to death?)
