Hey Everbody!
I recently decided to purchase my first set of IEM's (Shure SE210's to test the waters) and have been pretty happy so far, however having a wierdly shaped ear only the foam sleeves were comfortable/provided a good seal. Everthing else sounds horrible or just plain hurts! Not wanting to keep buying foam sleeves (too much of an inconvenience in South Africa) I've decided to get custom ones made.
I would firstly like to know whether to go for silicone or acrylic mouldings (comfort/durability and diff in sound quality?) and I was wondering if anyone knew of an audiologist in Cape Town who knows what to do with such a request? I have phoned around a bit this week but no joy yet...
Any other advice would be most appreciated as I am pretty clueless regarding custom mouldings.
Many Thanks
