Hi!  I am new to these forums as a poster, but I have been a lurker for a while.  I tend to research a lot before dedicating to a particular purchase, and I have found that I make better decisions by doing just that.  However, I am stuck between five main sets of IEMS, and I really could use...

I have a video editing system at home and work. I freelance in the evenings at home and I’m looking for noise reducing headphones. All of my critical audio mixing will be done at work on a good pair of monitors so the headphones don't have to be completely flat. I'd like to have some bass for...

Hey Guys, first post here... I was wondering if anyone knows if there are any stores in the Naperville, IL  area that carry Westone's.  I'm interested in auditioning the W2's in person.

About two weeks ago now, I started to take my addiction for quality sound more seriously. After taking a quick look around the What.cd community for gears, I found that most discussions pointed towards HeadFi as a reference/source. For a while now, I was interested in finding some custom sleeves...

Westone Music Products is pleased to introduce the AC2 Entry Level Custom-fit In-Ear Musicians' Monitor Designed specifically for worship teams, emerging artists, and personal listeners looking to upgrade to their first custom-fit product, the AC2 will be released November 1, 2010. The AC2...

http://www.westone.com/catalog/elite-series-monitor-replacement-cables I did search the forum but reading different things which confused me, some claim that just have to trim a little, some claim should purchase from some web sites. My superfi 5 pro and triplefi 10 pro have been using mod...

Hi all,   My westone ES3's are going in to get recased.  Currently they are clear, but I want to change the color since they've got to be redone anyway.  I'm thinking either black or some kind of grey.  I see the westone site has a color called "smoke" that looks grey.   Does anyone have...

Westone is releasing a new Custom for those of us on a budget.  http://www.westonemusicproducts.com/westone/2010/10/introducing-the-ac2.html

There is an audiologist just a few blocks away that carries westone products and includes the price of the ear mold in the total cost. They can get the whole Westone line.   I had originally planned on getting some Westone 3s after hearing so much about the amount of bass they have. I'm...

Hey guys,   My cable recently broke.   I am located in Canada and UE does not seem to offer shipping to Canada... To bad because 19$ is not tooooo bad for the cable.   Westone wants 32$ for their cable, then like 19$ for shipping (What, right?)   Any suggestions on where I could...

So I've realized that due to my ear opening, I don't do so well with wide/shallow nozzle canalphones and much prefer the fit of narrow/deep insertion nozzle IEMs a la Etymotic, Westone, Klipsch, etc.   However, it seems that most manufacturers spanning the entire price spectrum tend to...

The Westone website doesn't seem to list a UK distributor. What's the best way of purchasing some 3's whilst ensuring I'll receive product warranty. Hope it's possible otherwise it'll mean forking out a fair bit more for 535's through one of the many authorised distributors!

I just received my Westone UM3x's this week and all I can say is, "Wow". I also own the Shure se530's and Ultimate Ear triple.fi 10's and I really enjoyed both but I couldn't help but note the flaws in both IEM's. It's no news to anyone who's been on this fourm, "se530's do great in the mids...

Hey guys, I was at canjam, and while at canjam I basically asked to keep every tip I used (since they threw them anyway). This paid off for me because I did some tip rolling with my westone UM1's, and what really stood out to be as being the best was some tri-flanges I had. Removing the tip most...

Hi,   I have a pair of Shure SE420 and have really liked them, although I've seen the reviews are quite harsh against them. A couple of weeks ago the headphones went in a pair of shorts in the wash... unfortunately one of the monitors starting cracking a lot afterwards so I started looking...

Well, my Shure 210s are slowly (quickly) falling apart on me so I'm looking into investing into a new set of earbuds. So far my recommendations from others have been: Ortofon EQ-7 Sennheiser IE8s Klipsch Image X10s Etymotic ER4Ps UE Triple Fi Pros Audio Technika CK10s Monster...

Hey guys, i bought the W2's just a few days ago, and got them in Have been listening to them for over 10hrs now.   I love them, the clarity of it is MUCH better, and is less muddy in comparison to my old ex500's   HOWEVER: The bass, on my W2's is very very weak.   When i first...

How exactly did you pack your impressions when you mailed them to UE/JH/Westone/Sensaphonic ? I'd like to have an idea of how I should pack it when I send it. (I'm hopefully getting JH 5's with the same artwork and colour as what is in my avatar... and yes the U in colour means I am Canadian )

I'm thinking of getting a set of new IEMs, and these two are at the top of my list.   After prodding around the forums for a bit, i realised that no one has actually done a A/B test with them (at least not that i saw...), if you found another thread which has this, could you please post the...

Sorry!   I posted it in the wrong area. I moved it to http://www.head-fi.org/forum/thread/513907/westone-1-vs-denon-c551-in-ear-recommendations#post_6945325   -Roger

Hey Head-fi- I have to admit, I'm not really an active user here.  However, every time I've wanted to get a new pair of phones or wanted to get a recommendation for a friend, I've turned to you guys and you've never steered me wrong.   Last time I did this, I ended up with a pair of...

Hello everyone,   I need to know your opinion in who is best in-ear isolating headphones, from this selection:   Shure SE535 Westone 3 Westone UM3X EarSonics SM3 Audio-Technica ATH-CK100   For the audio I listen the most important things are (in order):   1) The best...

So I've been looking around for a pair of decent earphones for my brother, who has been nicking my Westone 3s at every opportunity he can get. I'll be off to uni again in about a week's time, so I don't have much time to do too much research.   That means that really I'm asking for...

I consider buying the first custom inear monitor. Please help me decide which one is the best for me between UE4pro, JH5pro and Westone ES1. I listen to classical musics and love piano concertos and symphonies. I'd like to have one that has a wide soundstage and neutral sound.   Thank You.

I was just looking at the westone website, and they have westone 3 listed under personal use, and the UM2 and UM3x under pro.  I am just wondering is the signature of the UM2 closer to the UM3x or Westone 3? or would it be closer to a SM3
