    Do Westone UM2 require a burn in?

    Well I lost my etys. After two weeks without I ordered the Westone UM2s. Would you believe the same hour I ordered the UM2s I looked under the car seat and found the Ety ER4Ps sitting on the floor.... life.... full of surprises.... So, today the UM2s turned up. Great, I thought (despite...

    Upgrading from Westone UM2... Suggestions?

    So my go-to earphones are Westone UM2's with a Plussound Exo cable (cryo-treated silver-plated copper). I'm looking for a nice upgrade. Before I go any further I should address three things: Firstly, many people hate the UM2s, I am not one of them. While I totally get that they don't provide...

    Fit identical to UM-1's, but cheaper?

    My girlfriend loves her Westone UM-1's, but she destroyed her first pair by wearing them at the gym.  Can anyone recommend a set of in-ear headphones that fits the same (uses the same ear pieces) but is cheaper?    She doesn't really care about sound quality but wants the fit and sound isolation...

    Are there any headphones that COMPLETELY block out noise even w/o music playing?

    I'm renting an apartment and god it's noisy, so noisy. I'll pay up to 600 dollars for something that can give me peace and quiet. Make that a thousand. In-ear monitors aren't an option, they're too uncomfortable for me. This is something I'll be wearing every time I don't feel like listening...

    How to tell the difference between a cable problem and a driver problem?

    Hi,   I've owned the UM2RC for a month and they really are a step up from my previous set of earphones.   Recently, however, the right side seems to have less volume than the left. There is also a noticeable "cracking" sound when I increase the volume, especially prevalent on tracks with...

    Are the Westone epic cables identical to the one that originally came with the UM2/3X?

    Asking because the sound coming from the left side of the um3x rc is cutting in and out near the jack.  I really like the quality of the cable.  Looking to order the exact same cable but Westone don't seem to sell it anymore.

    Westone UM series housing size

    Are all the housing of the um1, um2 & um3x the same size?   Or does the size increase with each additional driver added?

    How does the EarSonics SM64 compare to the Westone UM2?

    I love my UM2s and the sound sig in general is really enjoyable to me, but I've been reading about possible upgrades, and I find the SM64 looks really interesting.  Descriptions I read of the SM3 a while back made me really curious and these are apparently more well-loved.  However, some reviews...

    Universals vs Custom re sound and quality for the price

    I posted this in "Recommendations" but didn't get any response.   I know this is relatively subjective but.......   I've always bought universals - mostly mid priced like Westone UM2's. Shure's etc. I'm currently really liking my new Sony XBA H3's. The sound is pretty much as good as I want...

    It has been about 9 months since Rob (Vorlon1) and I did a portable amp comparison. Since then I have had an idea of going back and adding additional amps. I hope that the additional listening time and perspective of all these months allows us to provide a better insight especially as we all...
