Bump? I also found a break in the wire where the 3.5 mm rubber ends. -
Custom UE cable replacement (after September 1, 2010) memory wire failure
Is anyone else having this problem? The memory wire tube (and eventually the wire itself) will break where circled in red after about 10 months of use. This is my second cable that has broken in the exact same manner in the same time period. For reference...- mavericknm

19 custom IEM/TF10/Shure/IE8 cables reviewed (Effect Pearl, Apollo, & Odin added 3/20/13)
Quote: I am on my second of these and after 10 months of usage, they are showing the same failure mode. Wire color makes no difference. The memory wire tube begins breaking off. I'm not sure you can warrant a build quality of 10 if the life expectancy is less than a year. Is anyone else...- mavericknm

Gotta share my UE's as well! Mine look exactly like Shane's so I'll spare everyone the pictures. I ordered and paid for UE4s but whats this? The shipping slip says UE5 and so do earbuds.

UE started shipping exactly 10 business days or exactly 2 weeks. Which is within the ETA posted on their website. So far I can only say excellent things.- mavericknm

Quote: Got mine yesterday too. Monday delivery as well! I wonder, did anyone pay for expedited shipping? Would they have come today if that was the case? I'm taking a plane ride to visit my mother and it would have been nice to have them. To block out the noise from the plane of course!- mavericknm

Quote: I'm not sure what the tax paid was but it was definitely less than 8%. My UE-4s came out to $315 which i assume is the cost of shipping. Quote: Thanks Vincent! As a struggling student, my ears graciously thank you both for your honor and for your awesome booth...- mavericknm

OMG 9 pages already? Great meet. Amazing stuff. Thank you to everyone who came out and congrats to all those who won something. Gotta laugh at the ringing noise coming from the PA system. Thankfully it didn't bother me. But whats this? No discount on the UE-4? I was really hoping to buy...- mavericknm
