    Unique Melody Remold Impressions Thread

    Quote:   How's that process done?  Is it literally a little bit of metal?   And thanks for helping the entire remoulding go well :D

    Unique Melody Remold Impressions Thread

    Yeah basically wanted to keep the UE11s the same as what they were when I received them, no point putting UM logo on a UE IEM :P

    Unique Melody Remold Impressions Thread

    Just received my UE11 that I sent to UM Aus to get remoulded.     Fit and build quality is amazing.  Also the sound, but the sound is for the UE11 thread :)

    Unique Melody Miracle Review & Impressions Thread

    Quote: Was referring to this spot:   "Interestingly, Unique Melody tends to mold slightly shorter canals than other manufacturers, which in result produces a relatively less intense isolation experience. So, if you believe you need the full 36 decibels of isolation that we received...

    Unique Melody Miracle Review & Impressions Thread

    Does anyone have any more information on the "short canal" thing mentioned in the review?   Really want to get some UE11's remoulded by UM but the short canal thing is worrying me a bit - I've had a look at the example photos and the canal extension looks like it's before the second earbend...

    I'm back, and looking for the next step.

    Headphones always get the biggest improvement in sound.  Consider headphone improvements first before upgrading your DAC or amplifier.   If you like the MS-1 sound, you should try the Jaben AluMod - or try adding distancers and jumbo pads.  The difference in quality of sound is absolutely...

    Review by 'GeckoSlayer' on item 'Alessandro MS-Pro'

    Easily more detail than the k702 I own, and much more musical, a pleasure to listen to.  I'd rate them the same as the Grado RS-1.

    Non-audiophile reactions to high-end headphones

    Quote: I think I broke the thread asking why car modifications aren't frowned upon like headphone buying is :(

    Non-audiophile reactions to high-end headphones

    Quote: You've just summed up good parenting practice, instead of just "giving" the kids money, my parents would teach us that money must be earned.   I've let a few people listen to my AKG k702 setup, and most of the time it's a "they sound good" until they hear the price bracket...

    SR60 short?

    Have you taken off the pads and checked for hair in the mesh?   That was my biggest "grattle" cause in my Grado headphones.

    Went from MS-1 to AKG K702. Where next?

    Hey everyone,   About 2 years ago now, I bought some MS-1s and absolutely loved the sound, everything was perfectly clear and my music sounded amazing.  I decided after a year and a half, I needed something better - I got the AKG K702 from a head-fier and am loving them.   The problem...
