Hey @ustinj I just read your post and I'm thinking that the bass you describe will be improved after the fit adjustment I did last week for you. Let me know how it works out. They are going in the mail this afternoon. Cheers

There are only three pigment colors yet infinite paintings. :)

  I haven't had a chance to listen to the HUM pristine yet, maybe someday. :)   ARIA is a quad, HUM is a dual. :) But maybe similar in terms of simplicity of design. 

  Keep an eye out at CanJam Singapore.   Cheers.  

You can argon purge a small area with Bloxygen. It works, but is expensive.   Also, I switched to using #13 for the whole run. The arrangement showed in my video works well if you really need the small diameter tubing at the tip. I'm not sold on it though, so if anyone knows of a better method...

Anyone else feel like those dampers bounce a hundred miles when you drop them?

  That is so true. Some customers have canals that are easily half the diameter of my own. At first I thought it was an error, but it certainly was not.

  Was it earwax? 

I've seen candles made of bees wax, paraffin wax, and earwax of all things! So I'd say get paraffin wax, so you don't end up with earwax. :)   I heat with a waxing pot with a modified thermostat.

I recommend using paraffin wax!

  The C3's contents are listed on the site. :)     Piotr adds a lot to the community, and the Harmony isn't DIY friendly. That's two of many reasons why. :)

Lol, nope, none of that. I'm trying to write up a quick overview on IEM filters for /r/diems and have very little experience with first order band-pass filters or low pass filters. The common example of a low pass filters makes use of an inductor but I haven't seen any IEMs use one. Any wisdom...

Hey  @piotrus-g, do you have any examples of bandpass or lowpass filters? :)

I can't find it stocked anywhere or find the datasheet. Where did you hear about it?

That's correct!

I'd be wary of that price, $1.50 for a TWFK-30017. Qty pricing for this part is around $30@1000.   Edit: nevermind! That's Yuan not Yen. :)

Hey @Skold !   As a general rule, follow the natural contours of the impression and trim it so the base is parallel to your ear!   Out of curiosity, what parts did you collect for your build?

Thanks all for the kind words on the Omni design. Zach told me he wanted a semi-open t50rp cup and this is what he got. Glad he saw it my way!    @Zocoyotzin Omni is a walnut can in my mind, but the blackwood is very special too. Just my visual preferences. Keep it USA! 

    Hey quadkiller, that's correct. Vertias is not IEC 60318-4 compliant, but that's not the point. Those tools exist and they are too expensive for enthusiasts.   The IEC specification was my bible while designing the Veritas. My two goals are to keep it low cost and to keep measurements...

Hey, no worries! I thought you were talking about how Knowles presents their frequency response data. Unfortunately, I am not allowed to talk about my products on Head-Fi (not a sponsor), but I'm happy to discuss this via email or in PM. Thanks. :)

  Hey tranhieu, Knowles has some great resources posted on DigiKey that discuss this. Every IEM builder should watch these.   http://www.digikey.ca/suppliers/ca/knowles-acoustics.page   Thanks! Luke

Hey fleasbaby, how do you like the ear-zonks? I have one of their L-cush pads, they seem fine.

Just wanted to add that the freshly cut interior is nice because the open pours of mahogany get packed well with sawdust when sanding, it's tough to reverse this process without cutting it again. Turned or drilled surfaces are not nearly as smooth and uniform as routed surfaces. Turned and...
