if you have a helmet that is producing 90db you should probably consider getting another one. the fact is just, that you cannot hear anything arround you anymore, and at least in germany it is not allowed to drive that way. and i think the reason is pretty obvious. regards gordon

sorry, but using this kind of hardware while riding your bike in traffic is just stupid and dangerous. it is allready dangerous enough to walk with this things on, but driving is just insane. my hint: dont do it! regards gordon

indeed ;]

grats, and hopefully youll get a nice fit soon. regards gordon

hi marcus, i just got my ue-10 back. what i can tell so far is, that they are indeed alot better. i think on the right side the seal and fit is perfect. on the left side im not sure yet. but i have to admit, that i wasnt sure if they can sort it out without new molds, as it was qute easy...

hi, i can only tell about the ue-10. i consider them as very good, very simple i had 2 refit's so far, and trying right now if the seal is perfect now, but i dont regret getting them for sure. sensa did answer my first email very soon, but i never got an answer to the second email, or...

tsts dont make fun, im sitting in the same boat with you! (:

hehe.. well, i dont expect the refit to be back before 2 more weeks. in the post office i was told, the fastest possibility to send it to the USA would take arround 1 week. it was actually cheaper than sending it from new york, although takes alot longer.. regards gordon

grats! and keep us informed (: regards gordon

<g> all the germans at once again.. its pretty impressive how different the ear canals can be. and take a closer look at his serial (: and of course congrats BRBJackson! hope youll enjoy them for a long time. regards gordon

- double post -

hi, yes what you describe is about what i expected. i had the chance to test the first refit on the flight back from new york to germany, i knew that the seal was breaking very easily. but actually with some more background noise than my quite room, i had to continously rearange the plugs to...

hi solvexyz, actually i got an email when the impressions arrived, but then again i have asked for it, had a tracking number. as im used to do organize alot of stuff, i am 'normally' forcing (more or less) the people i work with to give me a response if something has arrived, or is leaving...

yes, probably are the parts a little bit cheaper. the 'non sound' material will be arround 20$, but i have no clue how expensive these little drivers etc are. the cable is probably arround 20$ too, leaves 3 drivers, bridge and what else is in there. probably it is more like 100-200$ gives 100$...

hi, marcus for the refit im very sure, that they do a new mold. that is unless they have to do the thing again. for the 'little' refit they are taking off a little bit material, or adding a layer. for these little changed, you dont need a remold i recon. i have this oppinion because of my...

well some sort of paying, R&D means research and developlemt? take 900$, 20% off for sale company down to 720$ material probably arround 200-300$ down to 470$ working time probably arround 5 hours, 60$ per hour down to 170$ devices they need, further research and co ~100$ leaves...

yes, i doubt that the superfi are included. but then im not sure on the amount of ue-10's they are selling, or customs at all. i guess they have a decent amount of orders. thats should be at least about 1-3 customs per day. if you math it up, that serial can be true. regards gordon

hi, i didnt pay anything, but only because at the airport they were only interested in my laptop. the final "check" was a look at the keyboard. lucky that ive still a german keyboard, i bought the laptop here in germany, but i wanted an US keyboard. i didnt get it, because it was 40eur...

hi markus, are you sure? well they could increment theyr serial for every plug they produce, including the ue-5 and maybe the superfi products. but that for the number is not raising fast enough i recon. regards gordon

hi markus, did you fill out the form 0749 for your UE-10 refit 'package' ? regards gordon

hi, ive the serial 7000 i recon that jasper had 7036 or 7037 what about the others.. regards gordon

hi, im not sure about the molds, done by audiologists UE know or works with alot. i had mine done by Jim Silbermann, aparently someone who is doing alot of impressions. he is working with westone, future sonic and ue. and i was told to go to him by ue. now maybe the impressions are good...

grats! post some pictures when you receive yours (and tell us the serial..) regards gordon
