Hello All,
I hope this is my final report on my purchase of 1964 Ears Quad IEM's. Please read my posts on page 2 and 50. I hope this is helpful to people like me who are new to the IEM market and those concerned about sending their money to an up and coming IEM company. I picked up my IEM's today. They left a message Friday on my cell telling me they were done. Coincidently, they were posted on the 1964 Ears Facebook page today (the orange with red/orange metal flake) The picture does not do the metal flake justice.. When I arrived (unannounced) , Vitale and another staff were present. Vitale greeted me and gave me a tutorial on inserting my new monitors. I had initial fear of inserting them (mainly because the audiologist impressions pretty much HURT!!!), but Vitale placed a dab of lubicant (Sorta of like K-Y gel...well, you know...) on the monitors and talked me through the motion to place them. Within two attempts, they fit perfectly!!! I've read that a good fit sort of "sucks" into your ear and that's exactly what they did. I've inserted/removed probably 20 times since this afternoon and they still feel really good. I probably will need to use the gel a few more times though. The sound is JUST AMAZING, though I can't articulate beyond that. If you've read my two other posts, you know that I am not a pro, but I will say, there is NO WAY IN HECK Ultimate Ears, JH Audio or Weston can offer a product that sound 2 to 3 times better than these IEM's for the money!!!. Hope this helps. I'll check this thread every day or so if anyone has questions about my experience.
I did like their custom cut foam better as well and would rather have that than what they have now. I have the foam on my pelican 1010 case but a custom cut one would look nice.
