Quote:   How's that process done?  Is it literally a little bit of metal?   And thanks for helping the entire remoulding go well :D

Yeah basically wanted to keep the UE11s the same as what they were when I received them, no point putting UM logo on a UE IEM :P

Just received my UE11 that I sent to UM Aus to get remoulded.     Fit and build quality is amazing.  Also the sound, but the sound is for the UE11 thread :)

Quote: Was referring to this spot:   "Interestingly, Unique Melody tends to mold slightly shorter canals than other manufacturers, which in result produces a relatively less intense isolation experience. So, if you believe you need the full 36 decibels of isolation that we received...

Does anyone have any more information on the "short canal" thing mentioned in the review?   Really want to get some UE11's remoulded by UM but the short canal thing is worrying me a bit - I've had a look at the example photos and the canal extension looks like it's before the second earbend...

I'm interested, won't be a definite though.   Can bring: Alessandro MS-Pros Jaben AluMod MS-1000 Koss Portapro   Some IEMs (whats the protocol for IEMs, does everyone bring their own tips to try them out?  Ive never been to a meet before): Hifiman Re-262 Ultimate Ears TF10...

Headphones always get the biggest improvement in sound.  Consider headphone improvements first before upgrading your DAC or amplifier.   If you like the MS-1 sound, you should try the Jaben AluMod - or try adding distancers and jumbo pads.  The difference in quality of sound is absolutely...

Quote: You've just summed up good parenting practice, instead of just "giving" the kids money, my parents would teach us that money must be earned.   I've let a few people listen to my AKG k702 setup, and most of the time it's a "they sound good" until they hear the price bracket...

Have you taken off the pads and checked for hair in the mesh?   That was my biggest "grattle" cause in my Grado headphones.

count me in!

Hey everyone,   About 2 years ago now, I bought some MS-1s and absolutely loved the sound, everything was perfectly clear and my music sounded amazing.  I decided after a year and a half, I needed something better - I got the AKG K702 from a head-fier and am loving them.   The problem...

Wow, some big items there Tony!

I keep getting ads related to tourism australia, trying to make me visit australia.  I LIVE in australia :|     I do like the new site though, very modern and social-media-ey.

I may attend - a bit hard living in Townsville, might road trip with a non-head-fi friend down.    Only thing I can bring that you guys don't seem to have already is a Little Dot I+ with stock tubes ;[

The I+ that I have sound amazing with some MS-1s.  That's all I've heard though, so can't really comment much more :D

Cheap flights at the moment for the period 13 Jul - 14 Sep, for the next few days they're on sale!

MS-1 24mm confirm MS-1i 32mm

I'm going down there in late February, but I fear that may be a little late for you

I apologize for not wanting to read through all 284 pages of this thread, but a question to someone who has followed this thread, can you use alternate tubes? Namely ones off this page? (And preferably the cheaper ones off that page..?) Thanks.

Definitely a well defined problem. Doesn't become too much of a problem, unless you have really fine hair. I get it once or twice a month at the very most, just have to carefully grab the hair with some tweezers and pull. If the hair gets lodged in there, I've heard of some people putting some...

I'm in Townsville, but if the timing is right, would come down for a national meet
