The sleeks are indeed another option. The Sleek customs are basically the SA6's in a custom shell so you have the oprion of auditioning the SA6's first to see if you like the overall signature. I found them a little bright and ended up giving the SA6's away, but many people have disagreed with me on that.

Curious on how many people with Hear Yourself customs have tried a different cable and if so, which brand and what are your thoughts?
Also, I saw this on the Null Audio website and was wondering what this does to the sound? Any other enhancements or mods that anyone can share?

I have not tried the Enyo silver from Null.I did make a silver LOD but found the sound too bright and analytical. I much prefer Copper. I prefer the UE's stock cable over both the Westone and Hearyourself stock cables.

Tried Westone, UE and Null Audio cables. I suppose the Null Audio is the best, but it's by a hair really, and it isn't nearly as flexible as the other two. Based on that, the UE cable is the best choice. It brings out a bit of the high end that's missing with the stock and Westone cables.

Have personally tried the Null Audio cable on my ol' TF10p: it brings out the soundstage a lot; service frm e maker is prompt and polite too; overall a good product. Currently using UE custom cable on my C3s, haven't establish a firm verdict yet, but currently I'm liking what I hear a lot

The UE custom cable on the C3 make it a baby UE11 at a fraction of the cost. Sound sig is extremely similar. The C3's midrange is a little more forward, and the UE11 have a bit more high end and soundstage, but they sound very close.

Yup, that's kinda "quantifying" how I'm enjoying the custom cable on my C3s into words. Even nicer to hear this coming from a person who DOES own a pair of UE11.

A lot of time there're many proud people I've come across (locally) who tinks their top-tier customs are the best AND our C3s are inferior (I chosed not to dispute), but they are forgetting 1 point: "fraction of the cost"

C3's are a much better value than the UE11, and I don't even regret purchasing the UE11. The C3 is also lighter and more comfortable, so for nearly 1/3 of the price, you get a similar sound performance and greater comfort. Very hard to beat that combination.

Wow....thank you, EyeAmEye!!

I was already extremely happy with my C3s, but with comparisons like that you've just made me happier yet with my purchase!

So I got an email from Andre requesting that I resubmit my graphic/logo as my monitors are now on the bench and ready to be burned! Does this mean they are near completion? Will I be receiving a shipment confirmation shortly?
Oh baby.... I can't wait!

 

[dantztiludrop]

Sure sounds like they are completed except for the final step of lasering the logo on. fzsrv, get your logo to Andre! Run, don't walk!

Can't wait to see your set

I got my Alien Ears 3 drivers a couple of days ago.
They take a bit of getting used to.
The right one was good by the left one had a high spot on the helix area.
I carefully rounded this area with a single cut file and now it is as good as the right.
I can't say that IEMs are comfortable but I'm still getting used to them.
They certainly work as advertised by blocking environmental noise
I may get around to posting photos

Please, Please Do and also over in the "calling all customs" thread too please.
