Thats look like successful surgery. Even the filters are original.

Sounds promising. Can you take a more detailed pictures of your Triple.fi? I'm almost sold on UM because their build quality is the best I've seen so far.

I'm not sure how much closer I can get. I used my iPhone to take the pics. I'll take some more tomorrow morning in bright day light, which should give better pics. Maybe then I can get better macro shots. From what I can tell, they look almost the same as the UM's reshell.

So I called in just now and talked to the secretary (I'm guessing) and Kim. First off, I'd like to say they were both friendly and professional. Now, I asked Kim about custom tips for my Senn IE8s and unfortunately they don't make them, only complete reshellings.
He did tell me about another company called Precision Laboratories that he says should be able to do them, so I'm going to try following that line and see what I can find.

Thanks!

The new pics look much better. Will drop them an email asking about remolding my SE530s.

I have updated the original post with additional macro shot pictures for a more detailed up-close look in the "Build & Quality" section of my review. I put up the same macro shots in this post as well. These photos were taken with my canon off my balcony.

In these macro shot photographs, please excuse the white dust particles and traces of earwax in the openings. There is some white glare from the light reflecting, as well. I should've probably cleaned them before taking the pictures.

I've actually came across this company before, but i was looking for exclusive monitors rather than service. But i guess here's a new choice =)

In my monitors, the smaller driver is placed pretty close to my ear. That looks like the only difference.

Man, this pic makes me feel the earbore is ridiculously longgg


I just got the response from Kim that he can make the remold for my SE530s. Time to consider which to choose.

Do you have any info on the custom cables that Kim has? I just emailed him but I am bored and impatient...

Thanks for the info on Kim! I will definitely be in contact with him...

My ears are freakishly weird, I guess. And that macro shot makes everything look bigger than it actually is (obviously). It makes it look like a dildo in my ear! LOL, sorry for the sinister reference; I couldn't resist. But it's surprisingly comfortable.

I don't have any of his cables, nor have I heard them. He has some really cool looking ones. One in particular is this flexible metallic one. It doesn't look like it has a sleeve (I could be wrong). It looks like a silver metallic colored nylon cable. But it's not nylon, it's actually flexible metal, I think. It looks like when you twist or coil it up, it still goes back to it's regular position. I know that's a general description, but I don't know how else describe it. Ask him to send you pics of it. I would've gone for it, but I'm too paranoid with the signature changing.

edit: lil knight just posted the pic of the cable. read the following posts.
