Has anyone used the TWag OM cable with their customs with recessed sockets? Although the IEM connectors on the TWag OM's product page looks like they can fit but will like to confirm.

Guys production time/ turn-around is somewhere between 3 to 4 weeks+ in the U.S
Good luck International.

I just received my order from USPS. I love the fact that shipping to/from them only takes a day.
 
Initial impressions:
 
Fit is really good. I watched the Ultimate Ears youtube video on how to put in/take out custom IEMs and it made it a breeze. There are a few bubbles here and there but definitely not something noticeable unless you really look for them.
 
A little background: I bought the TF10s as a replacement for my dying Shure E3cs when I work out. But I realized quickly that the fit of the TF10s was horrendous. After a minute on the treadmill (or even the elliptical), they would simply pop out of my ear. The cable was also ridiculous to deal with as well. Which is why I decided to remold my TF10s.
 
With that said,TF10 remolds sound the same to me (but the last time i've listened to them was almost 3 weeks ago, so I can't give you a really accurate A/B comparison). I couldn't detect any sibilance (am I using the right word?) that Tomlinson noticed when he A/B'd his remolds and his new bought TF10s. It could also be the type of music I'm listening to right now.
 
Comparison of TF10s and the 1964Ts (from 20 minutes of listening to Top40/Hip Hop/Glee [all I have on my workout ipod nano 6g =P] switching them back and forth):
 
Lows: TF10s had more quantity than the 1964Ts but 1964Ts was more accurate and wasn't as muddy.
Mids: wow, I didn't know what I was missing from the TF10s and now I do.
Highs: Both were about the same, highs on the 1964Ts were a bit more recessed than the TF10s. TF10s sounded a little artificial? to me esp during some songs where the crash/ride hit.
 
I'm liking what I'm hearing from the 1964Ts. Can't wait to try them out on other music genres.
 
Another note, wow, i'm totally hearing things I wasn't hearing before with universals. i.e. The really high electric solo in the background of Jason Derulo - In My Head in the last 30 seconds, sorta ridiculous how I missed that before.
 
Last note, I really hate this forum. Now I really want to buy some ES5s just to see how they sound. okay I don't hate the forum, my wallet hates the forum. =(

They received my impressions and order form on 1/18. They shipped it out to me 2/9. So a  little over 3 weeks. I only received it today because I live in CA.
 
Here are a few quick snaps of the headphones:
 

 

 

 
Most of the imperfections (bubbles) are on the tips. You can see on the second picture. You can see some minor ones in the ice blue remolds but definitely not a dealbreaker. It may not be "UM" quality but the convenience of shipping within the US and not to China trumps whatever cosmetic quality is in question IMO.

Welcome to the 1964 EARS world hguy4X. I'm glad that finally there are enough reviews about the the wonderful sound quality of 1964 EARS that it makes it harder for a few to criticize and say there's some agenda afloat here. Plain and simple, 1964 EARS makes a great product! Is there room for improvement? Sure there is. It's a young comedy so I would expect they would get better and better with their craft, but what a great start right out of the gate!

Any one tried the dual drivers? Thinking of buying them as an entry in customs.

wow that's quite long! considering that I live in Germany and that shipping to and from USA takes about a week it would be a total of 6 weeks! =/
let's just hope they'll find a way to speed up their production.
I'm not willing to pay an extra $75 for a rush build.

I doubt they will in such a short time period, guess we're in the same boat huh?

Would you say they sound better than similarly priced universals?
