hmm you can make your own custom tips... Check back with me in a month or so. If I don't get the info I need to make a portable set of cans like the ATH-DSW9's I'll work on making DIY custom ear sleeves, it shouldnt be that hard but then again I don't think any of my projects have ever worked out like they do in my mind. Maybe wooden custom sleeves

nah I'm just getting too ahead of myself.

DIY custom sleeves, never thought of that. I'm just not sure if the phonaks will be too big to wear while sleeping with custom tips on them.

 

[boomy3555]

all customs whether tips or full customs are too big to wear to sleep !

 

[ethan961]

That's odd, I figured that full customs are flat against your ear and would therefore be good for sleeping.

My UE-11 sticks out just a little bit. It is kinda bulky with the 4 drivers.

The LW doesn't stick out as much, but still it is not as flush to the ears as a UM2 or Westone 3.

Of course if you're going with customs, you have to factor in the price of impressions too, unless you want to do them yourself.

Sharp pains in both ear with higher intensity in my left ear. Poor isolation, assuming the ear canal wasn't thick enough. I have a short ear canal as well, so Bill @ Sleek made the canal a little shorter.

Sleek Audio doesn't charge anything for refitting when you first get them, but I'd take a stab and say they would later on (a year or two).

That is very reassuring to know incase i have issues, something tells me i won't as i have nice and straight canals anyway.
