IEMs reshelled into Custom Molds $80 in the USA (TripleFi 10, SE530, etc.) from FISHER HEARING
Anyone from the UK done this? I'm interested in having my TF10s done but I'm worried about high shipping costs to have them returned to me (Fisher Hearing are quoting $60) AND the possibility of getting hit by customs on the way back...- NicktheNorse

Sennheiser IE8 Impressions Thread
Bah I just can't make my mind up. I love the bass and the mids from the IE8. The comfort is an improvement over the TF10s, but I still can't wear them for as long as a cheap bud like the CX-300s. My main criticism is that I find the IE8s quite harsh - it's a mixture of some sibilance and...- NicktheNorse

Sennheiser IE8 Impressions Thread
Anyone noticed a slight harshness or maybe a touch of sibilance with the IE8s? Listening to TF10s with complys is the least sibilant combination I've ever heard so maybe I've been a little spoilt, but every so often I find myself thinking some things sound a little harsh with the senns...- NicktheNorse

Comply tips: Great fit but no Great sound?
On my TF10s the complys are great - the most comfortable of the lot and sounds perfect - tones the treble down just a tiny bit and increases the bass. On my IE8s the complys sound horrible - very murky and pushes the mids right back.- NicktheNorse

IE8 + Compy T-400 wooot!
They are comfortable yes, but I find they muffle the sound too much. Vocals seem to become quite distant.- NicktheNorse
