I have finally decided to sort my trusty E4cs out which have worked perfectly for nearly 15 years without complaint. Unfortunately and not surprisingly the cables are now coming away from the head units which is causing the sound to cut out intermittently. Can anyone recommend someone or...

I have some UM custom IEM's and upgraded my cable to a Beat Audio. It has been fine for a few years but now on the left earpiece the cable has become very loose and keeps coming out of the two prong socket. I imagine this is a very common problem. but I don't want to replace anything if I can...

The agent was an email address on their original website. Everything was done efficiently and quickly but that site now seems to lead you to either a US/UK one. I will go through the UK one which must be Amp City and see if they can give me a contact. Thanks for the tip.

  I've had my UM remolds for three months and they have not been used very much. Last week I noticed that the bass response in the left channel had gone. I checked for wax or dirt, nothing. Replaced the cable. Nothing.   Fortunately I got clear shells so I can see all the wiring...

I've now got them plugged into a Macbook and have checked them with left and right channel. On left only there appears to be no base response at all and still very quiet. Obviously as soon as you start to move the dial towards right the sound immediately comes to life.    I have bought a new...

Update - if you put the headphone jack halfway into the socket of my phone/PC/ipod the channels sound the same, it's only when you push it all the way in does the right channel start to dominate. Does that help anyone. Looks like it might be the lead?

I had my Shure E5c's remolded by UM about 3 months ago and have been very happy with them. Recently however I have been noticing that the right channel is a lot louder than the left. There is still signal coming through the left but less than half the right. At first I thought I might be losing...

They both offer the same service. One in China, one in the USA. UM (china) is approx $70 bucks more than Fisher so I was wondering if that extra money goes somewhere. I have no problem shipping items to China, but if they do the same thing then I'd rather save the $70. Any thoughts - both prices...

I have just had this problem with some E5's. Is it fading or cutting out? Have you look with a loupe to see if there is anything stuck down the pipe? A small piece of plastic was lodged in the tube which was so small I couldn't see it. If it's not that, are the wires all intact? The plastic...

Could you advise on where I can get this done please? Been away from the scene for quite some time now. Thanks

I am guessing that this is a common problem for these IEM's as it has happened to two pairs in 5 years now.   At the place where the 'memory cable' meets the standard cable there is a tear in the plastic protecting the wiring. This has exposed the wires. They worked for a few weeks and I...

An age old question...I am strictly an IEM person but my sister has asked my advice on what to get and she wants proper cans. She doesn't have much cash to flash, but I am in the dark here...what would you guys recommend for less than 100 bucks. I could always go second hand of course. Any...

I saw a long and detailed link here a few weeks back about a guy in china that will take your Shure earbuds and remake them with a custom mold for about $70. I cannot find the link anywhere? Here is the site on Taobao but it's all in Chinese se420¡¢e5c¡¢tf10¸ÄÄ£ REMAKE EARPHONE SHELL...

Thanks for the advice - the left bud has a small bit of something inside which was clogging it up. Pushed it back in and all fine.
