Is the "hissing" noise/white noise still inherent in the 2009 edition bundle?

Hi bro

Read you own both the Sleek SA6 + W1 and UM3X.

When can let me audition both? I am undecided over these IEMs.

Hi mate.
Haha, I believe you had seen the wrong info under my profile.
The westone um3x in my profile is categorised under "gone".
I prefer the SA6 over the previous um3x that I was using haha.

Hmm ?
Audition ?
Do you live in Singapore ?
If so, jaben network provides free auditioning of various iems and headphones.
But with regards to other countries.. I am not really sure..

But I must say that the sa6, even though with only one driver, can be able to compete with three drivers iems like the westone um3x. And if you like sleek audio sound signature, which is to have a very balance overall, the choice would be obvious.

Other than soundwise, there are other factors which supports the sa6, which is the detachable cables for sa6, wireless unit W-1 for the sa6, and the ability to wear it without the cable coiling around your ears(good to share with friends) et cetera.

Yes I live in Singapore.

In fact I went to audit IE8, W3 and UM3X at Stereo.

Very disappointed with IE8. Maybe the tips aren't fitting ... find them worse than my Sony EX82.

Eventually I am poisoned by UM3X. Love its accurate bass and instrument separation.

So now I wonder if SA6 is really comparable and does Uncle Wilson have it for audition?

Oh ! Okay, so its a fellow Singaporean .
I currently having some personal commitment, so I do not have the time to let you audition..
Anyway, do try to "sign up" yourself for our "December Mini Meet Up" at the off topic area @ jaben forum, a guy who has a CT6 is going to turn up for the meet.
Will let you audition it by then,
*my december schedule is packed !*

And no, I don't think Jaben has stock for sleek audio products.. although they are the local distributor for them =/
After last year's stock, I don't think there are any new stocks being brought in.. sadly.
