8/11 Updates:
 
We have a good and bad news regarding LEAR NS-U1:
The good news is that we has received just around two hundred pairs of LEAR NS-U1 last week, which is on their clearance check to their text notifications and is also preparing for worldwide shipping. Please stay tuned.
 
The bad news is that since the factory quality check takes longer than expected, a batch of LEAR NS-U1 is awaiting their test. The possibility that all NS-U1 are to be shipped by 9 is low, but the difference would be within 1～2weeks .
 
The SMS confirmations(For HK local backers only) and email notification of tracking number (For International backers)will be sent by the coming 2 weeks, which we welcome any contacts to anyone who hasn't receive any SMS confirmation or email by 23th.
 
Thanks for your support and patience.

We apologise for the delays.

In lieu of the limitations of the NS-U1's original cables, LEAR is announcing the NSC-03 upgrade cables that enables user to adjust the tone easily.
1. The first 100 person to post a NS-U1 critic review on the internet (forums, facebook, and Instagram) will receive a free upgrade cable.
If the number of reviews exceeds 100 by 31st of December, LEAR will be giving more away!
2. All customers who have ordered the first batch of NS-U1 will be able to purchase the NSC-03 with a discount price of HKD$450 (Original price HKD$598)
The cables will feature 3 controls which gives more flexibility to the capability of the earphones.
1. The NS On/Off Switch;
2. Main channel sound tuning from balanced to a bass booster tuning;
3. NS Effect adjust switch for the width of NS effect, resulting a narrower/wider left and right channel;
Now, everyone can have their own tuning and NS style with the NSC-03.
 
P.s. this is not the final outlook of the NSC-03

Nice! I didn't realise the cables were user changeable. Shouldn't be long before mine gets here

Just got mine! I'm having problems with fit because I have very small ears. The strain reliefs at the earphone end are longer than they appear in the pictures so they stick out so far (from my very small ears) that the memory wire can't bend enough to support any of the weight.
I've experimented with the generous supply of tips and I can get some glorious sound with some of them - but those tips don't fit firmly enough to support the weight so I only get glimpses of the potential.
Currently I'm using the Comply like tips which came with them and which are a larger size than I normally use - but they seem to fit firmly enough to keep the 'phones in place. I normally use foams, but my feeling is that some of the other tips would sound better with these particular 'phones.
So, how do they sound (bearing in mind that I can't use the optimum tips, and that I'm far from being a good reviewer).
My first impression was that the sound was a bit under-whelming, and characterless (with the compromise tips - I got "better" sound with some tips which wouldn't support the weight). It wasn't disappointing, but not exciting either. However, 10 minutes after taking them out, I wanted more. The more I listened, the more I liked it, and the more I wanted. And, with the NSS switch on, absolutely no listening fatigue. This is why I put quotes around "better" above. I really can't find a better word to describe the sound than natural. Lear absolutely nailed natural - they aren't boring and characterless, they are natural. And addictive. The more I listen to them, the more I want to listen to them...
They remind me of my current favourite IEMs - the Flare R2As. With both sets of IEMs you get to hear the music, not the IEMs. There is a little less detail with these but not disappointingly so (I like detail 

). With some tips, and with the NSS switch on, there was more bass than I like, but I'm definitely not a basshead so don't read too much into that. Also, I was holding them in place, which usually leads to a bit of a bass boost.
Also, and this may also be a symptom of my fit problems, I needed to turn the volume up quite a bit with these.
 
It's going to be interesting to get more impressions from those with normal ears and who can therefore get a good fit.
 
So, in summary, at worst, these are natural sounding 'phones with zero listening fatigue (a first, in my experience). But, I strongly suspect there is a lot more to come with a good fit. I'll definitely be very happy with them if I can resolve my fit issues, and, if the strain reliefs are shorter on the NSC-03, I'll almost certainly buy one. I might buy one anyway...
