I've recently been through quite a few pairs of universal IEMs - UM3X, Monster Miles Davis, e-Q7 and JVC FX700. They all had something I enjoyed, but none of them were quite there for me. I like a good deal of immediacy (like my single-ended valve hi-fi at home), with reasonable bass response...

Hi Head fi,   I have been reading this board for a while and have found lots of usefull information so I thought I would try to give something back!   I recently had the chance to audition some of the new unique melody in ear “Universal custom” earphone demo’s.  Here are some...

Hey everyone, As stated in the title. I'm making a hard time deciding between the ES5 or the Miracle. Basically i listen music genre blues-rock. I love vocals too. I like the Soundstage to be rather intimate, like that of a JH5. Hope you guys can help me out yeah? Cheers, Eric

And not sub-$1000 budget either.  Just wondering if i've missed some manufacturers that offer this configuration.  Specifically i'd like to have a high, mid, low driver.  That's probably wishfull thinking though.

I was looking at upgrade cables for my IE8 and saw this   http://cgi.ebay.com/Pro-Upgrade-Cables-Hera-UE-Shure-280-450-800-650-/220783845050?pt=Other_MP3_Player_Accessories&hash=item3367be1eba#ht_1465wt_1141   It uses the specs for Nordost Valhalla speaker cable and even mentions...

Just lost (got stolen) my beloved Senn IE8's. I will miss the two wonderful years I had with them.   Now, I have Decided that it is time to look into set of customs.   My budget is about $700 including impression and shipping and the whole deal.    Last time I looked into some...

Since I haven't been able to sell the UE18 at a price I am willing to let it go, i've decided to get them remolded.  Ultimate Ears was not helpful at all, they tried to sell me a new one at a discounted price (not much btw).     Any opinions on Unique Melody or Fisher Hearing?  I am in the...

Hi, I live in France at the time, and was wondering if anybody knew some place that would have the technology to do a remolding for IEM. I've read on this forum that Unique Melody and In Earz (Fisher Hearing Technologies) does it. So I know it can be done, but I don't know if in Europe (or even...

Hi Guys,    This has probably been long awaited, but here are the first pictures of the mythical Unique Melody Merlin.   It is a five driver full shell custom, with quad balanced armature drivers to take care of the mids and highs, with a single dynamic driver to handle the lows.  ...

hey guys, I'm really new to cabling and would like to look for a cable for upcoming 1964EARS-Quads. Obviously am looking for something that will upgrade the sound quality, but am putting quite a bit of emphasis on cable size (not thick and bulky, I've seen pictures of the Null Audio Lune and it...

  Hi all,  I know I am new to this forum, so please forgive my newbie-ness...    Just a quick favor that I may ask of you.. I need help in making a decision on some custom in-ears...     I have a pretty good ear, I lead worship, heavy to acoustic rock emphasis... I have for many...

Unique Melody AERO - Three Driver Full shell Custom - $419 *SPECIAL* Hello Head-fi!     Whilst the Unique Melody six driver custom, the Miracle, along with the four driver Mage have been getting some attention here on head-fi, we want to show you that our triple, the Aero is no slouch, so...

As I had a look on china's head fi website, found that they were real cheap. Did any bro here try them before?

We all know the deal; buy an earphone, get fascinated with it, think "oh my gosh this is the best thing i've ever heard" and vow not to buy another earphone ever again. That was me with the DBA-02 about 7 or 8 months back. Fastforward to now and you clearly see my vow just got broken. Truth be...

They both offer the same service. One in China, one in the USA. UM (china) is approx $70 bucks more than Fisher so I was wondering if that extra money goes somewhere. I have no problem shipping items to China, but if they do the same thing then I'd rather save the $70. Any thoughts - both prices...

Hi, In universal iems I tend to prefer thedynamic driver ones, but in my search for custom ones I have only seen balanced driver iems. Are there any custom dynamic driver iems out there (a list would be nice because so far I have found none but I find dynamic drivers to sound the most natural)...

Unique Melody, a relatively newer company in the custom in-ear monitor world, has brought us a handful of monitors since their arrival. Products range from their dual driver, the Marvel, to their quadruple driver monitor,the Mage. In 2010, the company has introduced a brand new, sextuple driver...

Hi guys,       I really think its time for me to buy a decent amp. I've only used a Fiio E5 before and honestly i thought it made no difference to the music i hear whatsoever, i actually thought the music sounded more muddy and nasal when it came out of the E5. I've always heard that...

One more question for everybody:   I know about UM's impeccable molding and the reports of great sound from their earphones but my hesitation is in dealing with a company half-way around the world/different language. I've read about at least one person who had problems with missing...

What exactly is reshelling? I thought that it's only changing the cable cover, but judging by the pics I've found they replace the speaker shells or covers as well.   Here's is a pic of SE530s I found (modified by UM):   http://s.lowyat.net/uploads//attach-67/post-211867-1289974824.jpg...

  INTRO Several months ago, I had the honor of reviewing the Unique Melody Aero custom IEM. I really enjoyed that model, which I found to have a somewhat unique sound signature and excellent build quality, all at a very reasonable price. Here is a link to that review...

OK, I am new to high-end iems.  I was perfectly happy with Sony Fontopias for a decade.  I bought the TF10 on sale and now I am hooked.  They sound incredible and I doubt I would be interested in an upgrade purely for audio quality for a long time (if ever).  I am not a serious audiophile and...

Hey guys. I'm a new member to this forum and truthfully a new member into the listening community and have no idea how to start. I have a good idea where I want to go. Currently I own a pair of Triplefi 10pros and enjoy them very much. I have been listening to them unamped for a year and looking...
