Hey guys, completely new here. I have had a pair of UM3Xs for about 3 years now, and recently, the black part which you insert into your ear-canal broke off the main clear plastic housing and I carelessly lost it.    I was wondering if there is any way I can buy a replacement for that...

Hi guys, Im just wondering if there was actually a significant difference between the westone UM3X and the Shure Se535s? I ordered the UM3x red color version and had it for a month or so, and it was primarily because of my great experience from the UM1s I had. Looking back, I realised that the...

I'm looking for that punchy feeling in the low frequencies without losing razor sharp definition in the highs.   So, which ones would you recommend me?   Any others I should consider too in this price range?

I've been scouring the forums for an idea of which one I would prefer but I don't think I've actually found anything geared specifically towards what I want out of them.   What I'm going to be using them for: Normal music playback Taking them to the gym (not for running) My taste in...

Having read an enormous amount of reviews about all of these, I just can't decide which one to pick. I hope that there are people in here who have owned a few of these, and give me a more clear view on isolation, comfort and sound quality.   From what I know, is that I prefer either an IEM...

My UM3X broke on me last week. The plastic tip of one side came off. The shop where I bought it from can't replace it since it was physical damage, but they're offering it to be repaired professionally. A week later, my sanity cannot be contained anymore. I NEED MY FIX. Since I've got money to...

I'd like an opinion on whether westone 4r are a significant upgrade or change from UM3X? I have looked at UE900, which look a bit cheap, shure 535, which are cheaper., and may provide contrast to my um3x. However I keep coming back to the 4R. Opinions?

Hi all, anyone ever reshelled theirs? How do you think of yours?   Mine is pending from Rooth audio but it probably will be another 3 weeks before I get them back. I opted to add an extra high driver since I thought the highs were lacking when it came to female vocals resulting in me using...

Hello everyone, first of all, let me thank Marcus from headfonics for pointing me to this forum here, a very nice guy, who's made a lot of effort to help a total stranger with nothing to gain. Thanks! Regarding my problem.I have a Westone UM3X, with the cable broken very close to one of the...

Any comment on this upgrade path as I'm currently using a Westone UM1.

what do you think that IEM

So here it is all in the title : I used to own SA6's, and they are rightfully dead.   I got them when my SHURE SE530's died, and they litterally changed my life. But I have to move on. I need a removable cable I use my in-ears on the way to work mainly, and I'm not always the sweetest...

Hey everyone, I thought I had an account here but it may have got lost so I'm here with a new one.   I tried my brother's UM3X IEMs and they're awesome. I love how big the soundstage is and when I listened to my music in lossless it sounded spectacular. Great separation between the drivers...

Hi Guys, A perfect opportunity for in-ear phone lovers to grab the Westone UM3X RC inear monitors. This is brand new with security seal and hasn't been opened as yet. I purchased them directly from Westone Labs in Colorado, USA. Reason for selling ordered two and for some reason my brother...

Hello to the Head-fi community,   I wanted to share my impressions on my UM3X now that I have had them for about 6 months. Please be nice as it is my first review!   Build Quality The build quality on these are relatively clean and simple, and I especially like the clear shell...

Hi,   I know the UM3X and the ES3X use the same triple drivers and the only difference is the Westone UM3X uses single bore while the ES3X uses dual bores. I found a company that will reshell my Westone UM3X to dual bores, does anyone think it is worth it? Or should I sell the UM3X and get...

Hey guys. I am in trouble now cuz i don't know what to get. I have a pair of TF10, they sounds great and i love it,but it just won't fit i guess. So what should i get?Um3x or W3?I listen to some metals and dubs most likely.

The SM3 was absolutely perfect iem except the veiled midrange. Why SM3?     Anyway I been eyeing the UM3X for a while now.   But I been hearing great things about the SM64. Anyone heard both the SM64 and UM3X?   If so then which one is better, and why is it better?

I'm thinking about saying bye bye to my SE535's. I have read too many positive things about Westone. Only challenge left is W3 vs. W4. Music I listen to is metal and hard rock but I also listen to prog and bands that can really play (like Rush, Dream Theater, etc...) so I like some instrument...

Do the two IEM's correspond in any way in terms of sound quality and sound stage? I know the moulded seal would make the difference. But would a UM3X compare to the ES3X?

I've been snooping around here reading the forums for a while, doing research, but in the end I decided to start my own thread (even though the subject matter has been beat to death, sorry guys.)   I'm looking for a pair of nice IEM, preferable somewhere around $300.  Although I am a...

Hello all so i'm planning to buy some iems that can be driven unamped from my Sony Walkman Z Price range: under 450$ I mostly listen to rock , alternative, classical, soul , indie and sometimes country and pop. I don't listen that much electronic , techno , trance, dubstep or metal. I...

I am just wondering how will $500 iems such as the westone 4, um3x or se535 would compare with the similar priced headphones like the hd650/600, he400, or denon d5000? would iems sound better or worse? i know they are totally different but as of right now, i am very confused on what should i...

This is my first IEM review, so bear with me on this one. It isn’t very technical and it was more of an exercise for me to help me eliminate some IEMs from my collection. I currently own two ~$200 IEMs and two ~$350 IEMs and couldn’t justify keeping all of them, so I wanted to compare them and...

Greets from snowy Russia, folks.   I need your help in choosing IEMs under $300 (shipped) for my Cowon D2 and FiiO E17. Seacrch conditions are as follows:   1. Not-colored or low-colored super high-detail sound.  2. Solid contruction and strong cable. 3. High impendance(?). Since I'm...
