Nice picture!

I hope I will love them too.

 
Thanks. It took me three months to really fall in love with my Havi. I was initially underwhelmed and thought the sound was too thin especially for vocals. I tried it with various tips including Comply T400 and its spherical shape tips, TSX500 but none of them could really bring out Havi's true beauty, but as soon as I tried it with Sony Hybrid (the largest one), that was it. Completely enamored.

I am trying my pair for the first time just now. I have the JVC spiral dots on them. Wow, I really dig them! The bass is tight, treble is smooth and the soundstage is great too! I am listening to Money For Nothing by Dire straits. In the start of the track you can pin point every drum beat, it's really amazing!  
 
I will try them with large Sony Hybrids later

Edit: I am usually VERY picky with iem. I have auditioned +100, and I only like very few of them. So, I am very happy with my purchase

After a mammoth internal struggle :)P) I have finally pulled the trigger on a pair of B3P1s :D I will also be ordering an NX1 today to accompany it. Really excited to receive them! LMUE seems to deliver pretty quickly so shouldn't be too long. Thanks for the help and all the great reviews and info everyone!

Yes, they are but personally I would go for the first one because the second one looks different. The largest tip should have a bore with pale blue color not deep blue.

Good for you! I hope you will have them soon. They are really amazing... Never heard such 3D soundstage in a iem before. Not even the sennheiser IE8.

The sony hybrids I have came with the Sony Mh1. They have no colored bore. Do you know if they are "true" Sony hybrids?

I have Sony Mh1a bundled with my Sony MW1. The tips are not hybrids but they are excellent. I am currently using them on my  IM70.

  Let me know how Spiral Dots  compare to Sony hybrids.  

 
I definitely prefer the JVC spiral dots over the Sony tips. The tone is more "natural" with the spiral dots and there is a bit more "thumb" to the bass as well. I also think the soundstage is a bit better on the spiral dots. The spiral dots just really suits the Havis!
