Is there a way to tell if CIEMs have been damaged electrically or mechanically while undergoing remolding?
Thanks. There is nothing bad in particular. They do sound very different.- drssyoon

Is there a way to tell if CIEMs have been damaged electrically or mechanically while undergoing remolding?
So, I have a pair of W3s that I have remolded. They sound fine, but hard to tell whether they are any better than how they were prior to remolding. Can't remember that far back. I like the fit and comfort, however. I just received a pair of W4 on a trade and listening to them made me go WOW...- drssyoon

Update and such with my experience with InEarCustom
I noticed that the previous thread on InEarCustom is locked. I am posting this as an update to my experience (your experience may vary) that I want to share with the rest of the Head-Fi community. I had my W3s reshelled by InEarCustom earlier this year. There were delays, communication...- drssyoon

INEARCUSTOM - Cheapest re-shell ever?
Quote: Interesting. The angle of the socket/cable looks weird. Does the cable stick out when you insert the ear pieces? It also looks much smaller than mine.- drssyoon

INEARCUSTOM - Cheapest re-shell ever?
Quote: Update on Saturday June 29, 2013. My IEMs were delivered today with the fit issue resolved. Testing it now. It has been about 2 1/2 weeks since I shipped them back to Rob. I am glad that the fit issue has been resolved to my satisfaction. I have not been...- drssyoon

Custom IEM Fit Issues Thread.... Help! (with Pics)
I don' think you should be able to hear a person next to you at a moderate volume if the fit is good. You should have a bit of discomfort initially when inserted, but then that should go away after a while. More importantly, the bass should be there. If you don't have good seal, you cannot...- drssyoon

INEARCUSTOM - Cheapest re-shell ever?
Initial discomfort may be OK, but there shouldn't be any pain. I also suggest leaving them in for an extended period (1+ hour) and if they are uncomfortable enough for you to say "Sound-be-damned, I need this out of my ears!" If so, then you should get them refitted. You are definitely aware...- drssyoon

INEARCUSTOM - Cheapest re-shell ever?
Quote: I used a local audiologist. As a follow-up, someone from the company got in touch with me and asked me to send them back. I think it is an issue with a section pressing against ear cartilage so hopefully a simple fix? Will post follow-up with additional info when...- drssyoon

INEARCUSTOM - Cheapest re-shell ever?
Just got my W3s back (6/7/13). The envelope that they came in said 4/15/13 - I am guessing that was the date they were received by Inearcustom. I am having a fit issue with the right side. There seems to be little too much material where it rests against the ear cartilage and it hurts my ear. I...- drssyoon

Opinions sought - replace out of warranty W3 from Westone or get them reshelled
My W3s have developed a connection problem near the plug - crackles, intermittent connection, etc. Since they are out of warranty Westone offered to replace them for $1xx. The cost, however, is more than getting them reshelled with new cable, I am wondering what the best option may be. Just want...- drssyoon
