Very cool, would you mind sharing with us the experience of going to their Ginza facility and telling us what it was like?

Same here. It'd be interesting to see why Suyama-san always insists on taking the impression at their place, not to mention there's a handful of document you need to sign before paying.

Maybe it keeps the "exclusivity"? Also I'm bringing a Japanese-speaking friend since the people at suyama are asking me to :)

They do the impressions each ear individually, and will ask you to make a few chewing movements and moving the lower jaw left to right a few times. In the time frame that they have to tell you to do this, bringing someone that speaks Japanese is advisable

Edit: This diagram is on their website, somewhere???

Hey everyone I just got back from having my impressions done at Suyama. It was a great experience, especially for my first pair of CIEMs.
 
I went with my brother-in-law (since he can speak Japanese) and it was really fun. The people there are really nice and accommodating. The whole process took like 30 minutes and involved a waiver of some sort referring to recent issues with your ears or something, choosing the type and color scheme for your CIEMs, if you want to engrave it, testing the CIEM, and getting the impressions done.
 
The impressions were pretty fun to do, all the audiologist does is place a little piece of foam 5cm from your eardrum in your ear and put a lot of silicone over it, and probably even over most of the ear. This goes on for about 5-6 minutes per ear and afterwards its done!
 
All in all, great experience! Had some pics and will post those soon I guess :)
