Noble Audio - the Wizard returns!

I sometimes experience that ringing sound accompanied with some sort of pressure inside the ear for 5-10 seconds. It usually occurs once or twice a month, sometimes not at all (e.g. 2 times in January, none in Feb, 1 time this March). Is this normal or should I be worried?
 
Back to topic: I'm about to order a 4C and I just want to ask if it'll come with a cable with a straight or angled plug? And I'll be using it mostly for commutes during the rush hour, so is it fine if the cable comes in contact with sweat? I don't really sweat that much, but if the train's packed like a sardine can, then anybody will sweat for sure.

The move from Universal TOTL Iems to the custom K10s resolved all of my ear pain issues.  Due to extensive travel this week, I had about 20 hours of ear time with these and never once had the slightest discomfort issue.

CIEM's are used extensively on hot sweaty stages by hot sweaty performers. You should be fine. Your commute sounds horrid. I hope your new CIEM's take you to a happy place.
I think cables only come with straight plugs as stock.

Nope no stickers.  It also doesn't have a Noble TShirt either.  Imagine that

Love that version of M3.  I prefer it to all M3s forward.  It was a proper M3.   
 
Now the sticker, maybe takes my m coupe HP from 550 to 600 HP?  Gotta get one of those stickers...T Shirts too. If it was a noble type R sticker...maybe an extra bonus 15 HP

This one was company ESS car.  Wrecked on ring but did crazy fast Ring times (This one might have been 700 HP).  I need to look those up.

Horsepower Freaks M3 would be awesome. If they had the turbo kit for my M, I would have purchased it as those cars can build over 1K HP.
 
Here is 1 video of thousands- 

 
Sorry to all.  Last Car post. Wait, car gears, engine build for IEM. That would be sweet!

Is that an E36 M3 Sedan? Those are rare--looks like in excellent condition as well! I had a Topaz Blue E46 M3 Coupe for my first M3, but I currently drive an Interlagos Blue E92 M3 Coupe:

Not sure the Noble sticker would make this beast any faster. Maybe make it sound better?

Thanks to the posts in this thread, I may get a chance to find out when I put in the order for a pair of K10. Just not sure whether to let you run wild with a wizard design or get into the prestige line. I wish there were better photos of finished prestige K10's rather than just flat 2D representations of the materials listing on the Noble site. It's very difficult for me to "imagine" what the Blue Carbon Glass or the Blue Matrix looks like. But just looking at the Wizard designed pieces here in this thread, I'm tempted to just tell you what I like and let you run with it.

The E36 started life as a 1997 E36 325 sedan. It was gutted, and all the parts used to build a 1995 E36 M3 (Euro Spec) were bolted on. (engine, brakes, suspension, tranny, interior.....  everything.)   That being said, I don't know if the E36 M was ever offered in that color. This "donor" procedure is done often over here, as the taxes on cars with over 220 hp is insane high, (somewhere in the 300% range)
 
   Before I left the states I owned a 1995 E35 M Coupe (USA spec) and I loved that car.   I never thought I'd own an M again, as I thought those days were over....
 
But my good friend "Rico Suave" knew about this car, even knew the owner, and he arranged the deal.
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
  Fortunatley my wife was supportive :)
 
 
Thanks wifey
 
 
As for your M,  major SAWEEEET......   but it needs a Noble Sticker too.....
 
 
As for the Prestige.....       I really like the Carbon Glass "Red"  
 
I do understand your wish for better/more Prestige photos, and I wish they could be offered, the trouble is
 
1) There hasn't been enough Prestige CIEMs built to offer up a extensive gallery
 
2) A lot of the materials used are very difficult to actually take photos of.  
 
 
But I promise you carbon glass (red) is awesome, and I look forward to building a set with that material.
 
Here is a face plate photo of Red Carbon glass

Imho this is true even of the "regular" Noble designs. When I show people my K10 in real life they always tell me it looks soooooo much better than the pictures. Some designs lend themselves well to pics (like the ones Brannon usually posts) but some others, not so much. I guess there's no substitute for seeing art in real life.
