These are my sentiments exactly. How can a device barely last past 1 yr for the asking price. Why are so many failing at this time point. There is a whole host of issue from hardware to software. Sure Andy tries his best but really it seems more to be just consoling the user on their purchase...

Hi all After struggling to have my audiologist to perform ear impressions twice now, I am searching for another. I am in the Philadelphia area and would appreciate any suggestions with who you've had success with.

Now that's an interesting idea. Would you buy wire w/ color jacket, strip off the jacket, and resheath with the surgical tubing. Sounds very challenging. Have you done it? Wonder how the flexibility is.

I don't own a solder pot, not ready to tackle that yet. Just checked in with Trevor, he comforted me in suggesting no issues around the ear with the 22 AWG wire, though un-tested by Norne. With the black friday sales (didn't realize at first), this is really cheap per foot if anyone else is...

I'm looking for clear jacket copper wire for IEM cables. Is the 22 Awg OCC Copper from Norne very flexible for wrapping around an ear? How does it compare to the Cosmic Cable copper wire or Forza copper wire? Any other recommendations. Would rather not play the eBay game for wire, though if...

Thanks all for the suggestions. I've decided to go with the Lime Ears Aether (classic non-R) from the FS page here. To my understanding its a warm/neutral almost W shaped IEM with bass switch and good depth of imaging. Really looking forward to trying it out, though CIEM so the wait begins...

This makes me think I will prefer the Fusion to the Katana, as the Katana sounds similar to my Spartans. Also from Pinky's review of the Spartan's he seemed to think of them as 90% the Encore without the extended treble. With the Encore being bass heavier, slightly more V shaped, it further...

I'd actually be getting an A12T, seems a top contender. QDC 8 hifi as well. And I still have an interest in the Katana despite it being having leaner bass. For anyone who has heard the Itsfit Lab Fusion, how does it compare to the A12T, Qdc 8 hifi or Noble Katana. Really their up and coming...

Does the Tia driver of the U12T correct these issues, or is that more a comment of all 64 audio being sub bass heavy. I'd prefer dark to remain dark with my musical taste. I will look into the Aether R, but hard to find. The QDC 8 Hifi and AAW W900 are also now in my short list.

I'm looking for a little guidance on my next IEM. Particular models I'm interested in include: Noble Katana, Noble Encore (read as a Katana+bass), Campfire Solaris, 64 Audio U12 (non Tia), and the Itsfit Lab Fusion. I've been enjoying a CIEM EE Spartan IV for quite some time now, transparent...

Has anyone used these connectors for HD6X0 headphones? https://www.ebay.com/itm/Gold-Plated-Plug-Connector-For-Sennheiser-HD650-HD600-HD565-HD580-HD52-HD414-T2/153397276691?hash=item23b730b013:m:ms55klIae2JajfTsg7ngtvw

many thanks, I'll check in with Trevor or Plussound

Thank you! I'll ask him. Prices seem fair, and nice to know customer service is from an individual rather than company. I am in the US, so will need to see with shipping.

Does anyone have an ebay source for Sennheiser HD600 connectors? There was a white pair posted a while back, but those appear to be out of stock. There are a lot but not sure of quality. Not sure I want to buy the sennheiser cable and steal those plugs. If I do go that route, would you leave a...

Nice, have you tried the Symbio W with foam internal? That might be a good middle road for me.
