Comparing machine made universals to hand made customs.

Dude, it is 2014, come on wake up.

+1.

In any event, the Shures are just shells. They have not been filled up with acrylic by hand. Anyway, if you prefer the uniformity of universals, power to you. Then perhaps a hand made custom is not quite something for you.

Do you think this is acceptable. I have never heard a report where Shure SE's have air bubbles in them. And they are a lot cheaper..

is nothing wrong for your thinking.
for me, i don mind bubbles as long as the bubble is not that really obvious and big.

because i don stare on my iem, and i cant actually because they will be in my ear most of the time.

and i don think other iem is more worth it because of less bubble and cheaper. i'll buy just because i like it.

Agree. Sig and SQ is important.

I still can't see any air bubbles on my 335, even with a magnifying glass and backlight. Then again, I my shells are solid blue & red, so maybe the bubbles are harder to spot compared to the clear shells. The user who got bubbles in his was probably listening to way too much Michael Bublé or something. Then again, I doubt I'd care even if I did spot one or two tiny bubbles or other imperfections.

My 335dw are clear with red/blue tip. Can't see any bubble. They just look perfect. Fit perfect and sound great (to my ears)

 

[Kiats]

Agreed. What stands out for Fitear is that they do fit beautifully in your ears and they sound so good. And they are well built. If that's not what one is looking for in an iem, perhaps one shouldn't be looking at Fitear.

Custom IEMs are sort of like roll-your-own tobacco. A hand rolled stick might not be perfectly straight, but if you like the taste you probably won't go back to regular boxed fags. Now I'm off to roll some Drum with the 335s in my ears, listening to some smoky acid jazz on the balcony.

Definitely so, AnakChan!

That's right. FitEars are moulded between the thighs of young Japanese girls who work at AnakChan's Soapland.

Does that explain the occasional bubble or two?
