I have finally decided on getting a pair of custom IEM's after using universals for so long and i don't think that there are better choices for universals than the SM3 and ATH-ck100 that I own.
Because i live in the Netherlands, i am limited to only a few iem's that i can buy. I don't prefer buying them outside my country, because it's probably very complicated and expensive if there is something wrong with them (refitting, cable issue etc.)
So my only choices are due to my budget of € 900
Westone es2 ( 2 way, 2 drivers and westone is very known for it's quality ) € 882 including taxes
ACS T1 (also 3 way, 3 drivers. Less known than westone and slightly cheaper) € 799 including taxes
IEM-C5 (3 way, 5 drivers. A new company called Cinepaq in the netherlands. It has good reviews on their own website, but i have my doubts because it's pretty new. The price is overall lower than the other 2 ) € 803 including taxes
I haven't called any of those 3 yet if the price has the impressions included yet.
So far I am leaning towards the ACS-T1 or the possibly technical superior IEM-c5. But the westone es2 fits in my budget, but it's technical inferior to the acs-t1 but westone is probably the best well known 3 companies of the 3.
Or is better to order customs from another country?
