Hi
 
I'm planning to go custom and wonder if there are any Custom IEM available that provide similar sound signature to the AD700 ?
I love the sparkly highs and the details of the AD700 and would love to get a pair of CIEM that have these attributes + perhaps a little more bass.
 
I mostly listen to acoustic but also appreciate pop and hip hop but never rock.
My budget is 1500$ and would prefer to listen straight out of my Iphone.
 
These are currently on my top list.
1. Noble K10
2. Jh13pro FP
3. Earsonics EM32/EM6
4. UM Mentor
 
If anyone have heard these please post your opinion, other options are welcomed cheers !

I think you'd like the JH 13 based on the numerous reviews I've read about it. Extremely detailed with a tiny bit of bass boost to make it more musical. FYI none of those will actually sound similar to the ad700 because of iem/full size headphones inherent differences. Not to mention balanced armature drivers have a distinct timbre compared to dynamic drivers.

Thank you for your input.
 
I was initially thinking the same way but i also own the SM3 and apart from being a much thicker sounding IEM it comes quite close in term of sound stage.
However i have problem getting good seal from my left ear consistently so i was hoping a CIEM would provide just that with more balance and details in the upper region.
