    REVIEW: The Frogbeats C4...an explosively good custom in ear monitor....SERIOUSLY!

    I'm tempted by these because it's a UK based company.   However, after reading the "review" which looks and sounds more like an advertisement (please don't take it the wrong way) and other comments by ZimmerX, I still have no idea how these CIEMs sound.   Supposedly it's neutral, but...

    REVIEW: The Frogbeats C4...an explosively good custom in ear monitor....SERIOUSLY!

    Quote:   I'm currently in the market for some CIEMs and was going to get the UM Mage. Was wondering if you've heard the UM Mage and how does the C4 Compare.

    Home-Made IEMs

    I've also used hearing aid tube on mine. Works very well. Forgot which one I used but it was the thick type.

    Importing IEM drivers into the UK?

    Got my drivers from Mouser UK. They imported the drivers from the states and paid the import tax for them so I didn't have to.   Took 3 days to come via fedex priority.

    Quote:   It's dead simple. Just use a 365nm UV light source. I've got a torch I used to repair a windscreen chip with, that cured the resin perfect.   If all else fails, my sister has a UV lamp she does her nails with.

    Home-Made IEMs

    Update:   Look what came all the way from the States      TWFK + CI22955 + Filters. The TWFK is ****** Tiny.       Also been trying to perfect making some shells. Not quite the standard I wanted.       I was searching through alibaba and found this:  ...

    Home-Made IEMs

    Quote:   I don't see whats wrong with acoustic dampers. Ultimate Ears use them in almost all, if not all their custom IEMs to shape the sound. Other custom IEMs just have a capacitor or resistor just for the sake of having a "passive crossover" for marketing as well.

    Home-Made IEMs

    I think I'm just gonna keep it simple. No crossovers as my soldering skills are rubbish. As others have said, accoustic dampers should surfice (eg: Sony xba). Just ordered a pair of TWFK and Ci with a grey filter for the rwfk and red for the ci driver.

    Home-Made IEMs

    I thought I'd join in on this thread. After all, "How hard can it be?"....   Here are some pictures of a hollow shell I managed to make:       Got a few ideas on the next steps but still unsure.

    UE Triple.fi 10?

    Quote: Had the TF10s for 2 years now and recently lost the right earpiece. Loved them so much I bought a new set from amazon, a bonus since they were also on offer.   I mixed the old left earpiece (the old one seems to have a seam where the L/R indicator is) with a freshly opened...

    UE Triple.fi 10?

    Nothing wrong with your TF10s from your description. They are dark sounding earphones, some would even say they are boomy or muddy because of their sound signature. They are quite revealing and detailed but just dark. The S and Ts you are hearing might be a badly mastered track.   I use...

    RE0 upgrade - confused!

    Just noticed you're from London. If you're not too far from me (SW) I could let you try my pair of B2s and see if it's right for you.

    Best IEM's for around £150?

    Play around with the memory wire. It doesn't have to be tightly wrapped around your ears. Just loosely floating for some support.

    Brainwavz B2 maybe? £99 from amazon.
