Bump!

Hey there, guys.   You know... some people are bass-heads, other people are treble-heads... well, I am what you could call an "imaging-head".   I know that the HD 800 are outdated, thin souding and blah blah blah, but despite their flaws, I haven't been able to find a pair of headphones with...

Came here to make a confession: I'm deeply in love with these IEMs. I own several high-end IEMs, including 2 custom IEMs, and I have to say that I prefer the Z5 over all of them. I must admit though that I apply a little EQ to them (mainly to tame their -IMO- wild mid bass hump); their signature...

Sorry, didn't have time to update this before, but I got the IEMs on Tuesday.  

  Sure, I'll keep you updated.     I really don't think I'll ever buy something from them again, even though the problem was -apparently- solved. The way Unique Melody, as a company, handled the situation left a lot to be desired.

UPDATE: got a mail from UM saying that my CIEMs would be shipped today. Some minutes ago I received a tracking number. They shipped it via FedEx.

Nothing so far...

Hey Chodi. I got that information from DeLuX's post, right below my OP. Look here: http://www.head-fi.org/t/780341/problems-with-unique-melody#post_11901560

I don't know if I would get my money back. I mean, at first I bought the universal Mentor. Then, I sent it back for reshelling as custom, so if I made a claim I'd only get back the money from the reshelling (I guess?). To make it even worse, I also sent to them my custom Merlin for repair (the...

OK, so I contacted them and, basically, they won't send me the customs I have already paid for because their agent (I made the purchase via their Australian agent) hasn't settled the payment to them (with "them" I mean UM lab).   This has been the conversation between us so far:        ...

I'll send them a mail to the address you pointed out. Thanks!

Hey guys.   I've tried to contact them since 8th of August asking for an order (they are customizing my Mentor, which they have in their hands since June), but they haven't replied back. I've send like 5 mails already, and I have not received a single word back.   Have you experienced these...

Hard to decide... the Mentors are the most technically proficient (detail, positioning, etc.), but I prefer the sound signature of the Senns and the AKG the most. The Merlins (custom) are perfect for flights, as they isolate the best out of the bunch, and finally the Sonies are by far the...

My portable rig:  

It's definitely not delivered in the same time than FedEx... It's been 6 days since the IEMs were posted, and I still can't even find them in my local post office tracking system. Their website says explicitly "3 days expedited wordwide shipping" (yeah, the shipping cost is included in the...

I see... anyway, they should ask the customer before choosing the shipping method, shouldn't they?

I don't know... this a textual quote from their site: "All IEM's purchased from Unique Melody Global are shipped express by Fedex's 3 day worldwide expedited service."

Bump?

Hey there!   Like 2 months ago I bought the UM Merlin from their website, and everything went fine until yesterday: they sent me an email telling me that the IEMs were ready for shipping, and after that they sent me the tracking number. As some of you might know, Unique Melody site says that...

Well... it's just me listening to some Staxes.

Quote:   At least in the case of Brainwavz dynamic driver-based IEMs, the variation isn't just 'minor'. For instance, I have a pair of M2 that sounds almost analytical compared to other ultra-boomy, bazooka-like M2 that I've tried.

It happens a lot with products from Brainwavz. I have tried several M1, M2 and M3 pairs that sound totally different from each other (I really mean totally different, I could differentiate them doing A/B blind-testing 100% of the times).  

Quote:   Yeah, totally agree   Quote:   LOL, let's not exaggerate either! The IE8 does sound good, they offer a -let's say- "premium" sound. It's just that there are other brands that offer similar sound technically speaking at a fraction of the price.

Quote:   As I mentioned on the other thread, I don't think the FXT90 has less fidelity than the IE80. As I also mentioned in the other thread, I think -puts flamesuit on- Sennheiser products generally are a little bit too expensive for the sound they offer.   Obviously, both of them...
