Quick post to say thanks to Mike and UE for this deal. As a long time UERM owner I glossed over this bundle when it was announced, figuring I already had the UERMs, but recently decided to get the AK240+UE18 bundle. I'll post more soon, but I was curious to
1. have a better mobile source for playback on the go. Totally succeeded here!
2. have an extended comparison of UERM, which I love, to the UE18 which seems like it might add a bit to some genres of music
3. compare the fit of the new 3D printed process used on my UE18 to my UERM which are in need of a fit tune up. Out of the gate the UE18 fit great, better than my UERM that required several initial adjustments. Sadly I am sending my UERM to get the fit adjusted, so a bit of a wait before I can compare the sound of the two
4. try out more of Leon Ngyuen's custom art. I went with "Copper Tree" this time around vs "Time Attack" on my UERM
In any event, I'll post more detailed thought soon, and observe that THIS is the real deal on amazing gear!
