waiting for my 8.A's is getting painfull... First, something went terribly wrong in China, i think it was stuck for about 3 days.

Last Friday they finally arrived in Switzerland, but far away from my Town. And on sunday they were in Germany.... -.-

This morning they were again in Switzerland, and again in that other Town which is quite far away from here. I called

UPS and the lady said i will get them today. well, let's see if that is going to happen...

i have absolutely no Idea what UPS is doing...

UPS tracking is often defying time and space, going all over the place. I have a screenshot of their tracking page somewhere that shows a package arriving in Copenhagen (from China), then being back in Shanghai 2 hours later, then out for delivery here in Denmark the next day.

Wasn't doubting your reasons for not offering recessed sockets, just pointing out that the cable looks a lot like it was made for such sockets.

I was contemplating about whether I should get my impressions done in America or wait until I go back to Canada (which was about 3-4 weeks since I bought the 4.A's). I really did not want to postpone getting my 4.A's and really wanted to do impressions in NYC but if I would have fitting issues, then I'd have to shell out a lot more cash again with a new audiologist in Canada (because I won't be physically able to ask the same doctor again for a free impression as I won't be in NYC). I finally decided to wait these 3-4 weeks until I get back to Canada and then send the impressions to Heir Audio. The only downside is I'll have to wait longer to get the IEM's.

Oh alright then. If you change your mind, do consider using Andrew Resnick over at http://www.resnickaudiology.com/

He did a set of impressions for me last time I was in NYC - best fitting pair of CIEMs I've had. I liked how he was not going "wtf is CIEMs" but was well aware of how to do a proper mold for monitors rather than hearing aids.

I believe he's located on 58th.

ok, this all can't be.... i called them today, they assured me that i will get it today.

UPS Guy was here a couple minutes ago, he brought me something from Amazon....

I think my 8.A's are AGAIN on their way to germany....

I actually had an appointment with Dr.Resnick and I have been e-mailing him back and forth about the procedure. He's a great guy. I live 10 minute walk from him. Unfortunately, I decided to wait till I'm back in Canada. :( I really wanted to do it with Dr. Resnick though. 

Well there's some good news, just heard that my impressions are good and will be on their way to China shortly. Now begins the long wait :)

..just hope Heir won't send it with UPS

I received email from Sunny informing me that my impressions have been received and are okay. Phew!

I have received confirmation of my order with Heir from Sunny. Just need to get some ear impressions done now. Decided to leave everything to the Wizard regarding design but have chosen the shell colours:-

 Gun Metal Blue for the 8A

and

 Dark Blue for the 6A

I would like to say, the customer service from Heir has been great. In particular, Sunny must be commended for the fast response and genuine interest in getting things done for for the customer!

Very happy thus far!

Announcement
