I was just wondering if there were any custom earphone manufacturers in the UK? I am quite interested in getting a pair of customs in a year or so and was just wondering if I would have to send off molds to the US or if I could just send them to a company in the UK.

hand held audio.co.uk, hi-fi headphones.co.uk and, I think, advanced mp3players.co.uk offer custom options (though they are for a concerned custom manufacturer, the sites being intermedaries, as such).

. As intermediates though, they will charge a fee for that service. Whether this works out cheaper than buying direct and paying customs charges etc, I have no idea?

Yer, with all due respect I like the look of the link that 'LFC_SL' gave me.
Just a question for you LFC_SL do you know anything about their T3's?



Fair enough Lol. You didn't make it clear to whom you were responding to with all due respect

Had the same thoughts as you...i guess my logic was that I'm keeping these for years so worth spending the extra loot now to stop the upgrade-itis :)

The T2s rank very highly. Not many reviews on the T1s as they are pretty new.

Well in the UK, from what I can see, probably the aforementioned Advanced Communication Solutions T3's. They retail at £229GBP. However if in the US I believe LiveWires are the cheapest, they retail at $249USD plus shipping and handling costs; remember you also have to take into account the audiologist fees as well though.
