its a triple driver.. it cant be smaller than the current UM2?? Not?

if its smaller, it will definitely be pricey though.. imagine squeezing all the goodies into the IEM smaller than the regular UM2.. i cant imagine.. lols

Not sure if it would be smaller...but maybe the same size? or marginally bigger? If I can lay on my side, I'm in, else, I'm not- I would rather invest in a custom.

Big news from Westone! It will be interesting to see how the final entrant to the triple-driver universal fit market turns out, especially as it is the only one to be a three-way design.

Shure was able to make the E500 smaller than the E5, so anything is possible.

Aw man, I wish I could go to MacWorld, so close! Maybe I need to call in sick to work one day?

Can you tell us how much the Westone 3 is going to cost? The E500 and triple.fi have been tempting but I can't justify sinking $500 into an IEM, is it going to be cheaper?

Are you guys going to be at CES, or is this going to be a Mac only thing?
