    Can I buy CMs directly from Westone???

    Thank you, I've already emailed the adress but they said no... So if I gave my earmolds to my friend in the US, can he find a local dealer? the earmolds are fine, I've gotten several pairs from them with no refits...

    Can I buy CMs directly from Westone???

    I want to buy the westone ES5s but the price of Chinese dealers is just absurd. Also, I will be in the US next year, so there is just no reason to spend +200 dollars for customer services I won't need. But Westone seems to sell only non-customs on their website. The email I sent was replyed very...

    Now listening to Sennheiser IE8 with Upgraded Cable!!

    I think this is a work from either Xiaofan or Zephone, both famous cable shops in China. I don't have a good impression of Xiaofan(quality issues, cable breaks.etc), but Zephone is fine. They don't display all their stuff on their webshop, but most products are. And you don't have to choose ie8...

    What to choose? westone ES5 or FS Ear Monitor?

    Quote: Sorry,just had time to login... Well, the dynamic drivers are , IMO, muddy, loose and not as vigorous as the muti-driver IEMs. Well, if the FS can be as detailed and has great bass then it's certainly worth a try. The soundstages of dynamics are normally fine, but can the FS...

    What to choose? westone ES5 or FS Ear Monitor?

    I recently sold my imod&amp and purchased a Kenwood B9. Now I am considering just one more CEM before moving on to the desk systems, something slightly better than the ue7s I use now.   I've tried both the es3 and the es3x and find them fine, but after trying the ue18 those monitors seem two...

    Review: ultimate ears ue7pro----a cem greatly misunderstood

    well…i like a bit of power and flavor in the sound…actually perhaps i should have made the jh11… the jh11 is delightful in a different way, more …cant seem to find a word to place it…eloquent? i cant understand why so many nonprofessionals buy the ue10…

    Review: ultimate ears ue7pro----a cem greatly misunderstood

    they compared with the ue10 is only a difference of flavor… if new models are always superior, why do many stick to the old er4s(red&blue)? stereotypes perhaps…it would be a shame if ue stopped making them…they came out when people were generally unfamiliar with cems and after ue10 came out...

    Review: ultimate ears ue7pro----a cem greatly misunderstood

    i would indeed appreciate if there was some discussion from other ue7 owners…for better reference

    Review: ultimate ears ue7pro----a cem greatly misunderstood

        I have greatly pondered on the choice of my first high-end cem, and after two months' worth of auditions I decided on not the ue11 or the ue10, but the almost forgotten ue7. I have tried not only the ue11 and ue10, but also the es3 and the jh11 and have found that many threads here hold...

    ¡¾ask¡¿about purchasing customs in the us

    i will be in the us next year and i am not sure about whether to get my customs in china or in the us. the jh13 is about 1200$ in china and there's shipping fee. i want to ask, are there any retailers with better prices than the website price? and will there be difficulties in purchasing without...

    More drivers do sound better?

    but there are many ways of improving the sound quality. when it comes up to 8, 10 drives, every new one added is almost negligible in itself. the complex wiring and cross also contain potential risks…maybe work should be focused on the design and the tune

    More drivers do sound better?

    well, ive tried the es3(x) and the ue10pro, but i still consider er4p as better in a few aspects. while a single drive can reach stunning effect in one aspect, to reach overall excellence the more drivers the better. also there's the tuning. chinese "replicatied"es3s can use the same material...
