I admit I missed the general descriptions of the Celeste. Is this a custom; in that one would go to an audiologist for a custom fitting?
I have never been all that clear what constitutes a CIEM anyway.
What improvements or changes would be made relative to the FLC8S? I gather that the unit must be opened for modifications; and that then it is closed up again?
I actually do have some custom ear molds that were made for my old Shure E2C units by a now defunct unit of Starkey. They worked decently in airplane usage. Unfortunately I never did "cotton to the sound of the Shures relative to my other IEMs and I eventually sold them.
The customs sort of work with my Phonaks,but the sound with the Phonaks is much better with other tips. I think there is too much leakage from the mismatch of bores.
Thanks.
A custom IEM or CIEM is a IEM with a shell that is custom made from your ear impressions.
This is a custom on the right and a FLC8S with custom ear tips on the left:
