Just wanted to provide a nice shout out to LMUE (Lend Me Ur Ears) in Singapore. They are the key stocking distributor for FLC, and that is where I go when I lose little pieces for my FLC8S. I also bought a bunch of FLC IEMs from them, and some upgraded balanced cables also.
Anyway, my cables started coming loose on my FLC8S pair, and they sent me a replacement set under warranty even before they received my defective parts. They replaced both the cables and the IEMs themselves. Wow, what great service.
So at the moment I have two nice pairs of FLC IEMs, the 8S and 8D. Still on the fence about the 8N; as I am tempted to pick up the ibasso IT04 next just to have a different sound signature in the collection.
By the way, because of the tuning choices I like (fairly neutral) the 8S and 8D sound pretty similar to me.
