Well I've never used any custom tips but would I be right in thinking that a custom tip will most likely block out air so the dynamic driver wont' produce bass that well? Unless ACS put vents in.

Also can anyone comment on how squashing the sound through the tip might change the sound sig? Cos earbuds are normally wide and sound comes out all over it, compared with out of nozzles for IEMs.

Anyone?

Also is it just me or is earbuds actually coming into fashion around here? Although it might just be me paying more attention having read an unbelievable comparision of ATH CM7Ti vs Sensa 2X-S.

There are a few people around here who have had custom molds made for their universal IE's, I think most of them had it done through Westone though.
