I ordered a pair of UM1 today and I can't wait! But I am wondering how to correctly pronounce Westone. Is it:

West-one
Wes-tone
We-stone

or what?

Cool Colorado stuff - Westone Laboratories Inc.

"'Anything to make the world of listening better, we've got our hand in,' said Randy Morgan, president/CEO of Westone (pronounced "wes-tone") Laboratories, a manufacturer of custom-fit ear molds."

Wes-tone

Tone sounds like something dealing with music.
