Has anyone ever tried Alien Ears G16 before?(http://www.alienears.com/p/228/g16-eight-driver-detachable-cord-monitor)

It is said that John Blackwell of Prince and Justin Timberlake use this CIEM. I know there were some discussions on the service issues of Alien Ears. The price of G16 is really competitive regarding the 8 drivers and is on sale and only $775. However, there is no any review and impression of G16. I am very wondering whether G16 suits me.

Btw, I am not a bass head. I like neutral, nature, balanced sound with large soundstage.

I just ordered the G16's just today so I will definetly keep you posted of how it goes...  I did talk to them today and what I found out is all the drivers from all these places like Ultimate ears and Jh Audio are all the exact same... So what I gather is ur getting the same quality at a better price.. Plus if you order while they are on sale you get one free custom upgrade so thats sweet, but again ill post back when they come in. Im hoping and praying I made the right choice.. Thats alot of coin to spend but They now finance and thats what I did.. So good luck

Hope u can get it as soon as possible. Really anticipate ur impression on that. Btw, Dream Earz is my other option. The price is competitive too.

for your taste i can highly recommend the Alclair reference monitor, only 3 drivers, but very natural, great tone and soundstage.

I'm awaiting a review too. I'm looking into my first set of customs and these have caught my attention. Was really wanting the SE-5 but sounds like its near impossible to get in the US.

did you finance through Paypal? how long were you able to finance? 

 

I'm seriously considering getting them very soon, and don't want to miss the chance to get them for $775 instead of $900.
