Hi Guys,

Thought I'd post my experience as I go along.

Contacted UM ages ago, and they got back to me recently - very quick responses now.

Have just had my impressions taken in London, will arrange postage now.

Getting Se530 and HF2 re-shelled at the same time.

Can someone who has better luck getting in touch with Sam PLEASE ask him if he can remold ADDIEMs? I have sent several emails...he responded to the first one 2 1/2 weeks later, but nothing since then, and I can't catch him online as I am on the east coast and am therefore always asleep when he is online.

kb1gra, i will try to see if i can contact him for you in terms of your question.

Byt the way, those impressions look very well done. Your monitors shouldn't ave any problems due to the impressions.

Yeah, I'm jealous of those impressions. Damn clean. I gotta go get more tomorrow and I hope they look as nice.

I couldnt find this info in this thread (but I'm sure its here somewhere), but how much would it be (+ shipping to US) to remold an older custom like a UE-10 or a livewire 2 driver?

 

[FYJX]

It should be the same at $90 USD + $35 USD Shipping. Prices are approximate as it depends on currency exchange

 

[jinp6301]

Thanks a lot.

I would have to buy a cable as well right?

Some of the best acrylic I've ever seen used.

Sorry if I missed it but where is this review? I'm very curious to see a reshelled dynamic drivers as I'm sorely tempted to reshell my RE0s.

Look at the First page in this thread.

 

[grahamnp]

Haha oops, thanks for that. I assumed that the link would be closer towards the end.

Rune-san, the IEMs look very nice.

I want to give a word of warning. Mine had to have a hole put in them. If he tells you that he needs to put a hole in them make sure you don't select a clear faceplate (body would still be ok). We were discussing it, and it makes sense that in time, dust is going to get up in there and there will be no way of removing it. So keep that in mind if he says he'll have to drill a hole.

Another question, can the same impressions be used twice?

Yes, if it's at the same time or the time frame is very short. As covered a few pages back, the impressions shrink within a month or two. But if you're sending two sets to be done at the same time, or within a short interval of each other, you don't need to do two sets of impressions.

 

[jinp6301]

Ahh, I see. Hmm, then if you already have a pair of customs, could those be used instead of impressions for new customs?

Sorry for the many questions, I'm pretty new to this

Typically, if the company has a SLA machine, they are able to scan the monitor into the computer and make your monitors from the impression file. However, i'm not sure if UM has this SLA machine, which they could scan your monitors. But if they do, then yes you could.

Starkey did this for me with my JH10X3's, and made my PM700 and PM800. Unfortunately, they are currently in for repair as the right side of the PM800 is more quiet than the left.
