In all honesty I don't know about delays or even if people do have them now. I am waiting for someone to post they have them, just like you. People might have them and just haven't spoken out, which would be weird for head-fi.

Any pictures yet of what they look like being worn? I'm interested in pairing them with my DP-X1.

Wow, looks like pretty much everything is backordered on their website! Any word on a timeline for getting them back in stock? I know it says "estimated to ship late May," but, well, it's already pretty much late May...
Anyway, super interested in the Dulce Bass and can't wait for an in-depth review!

Any new orders are now estimated to ship in June, we have a large shipment of universals coming in but it won't be enough to clear the backorder for any given product. Look for things to stabilize this summer.
Some reviews will follow this next delivery...

What's the reason for the $50 price hike up since the release of the new classic line?
Not sure I'd be willing to pay $50 more just to have the shells painted with a little color...
Any chance you guys would sell the old versions with the old prices?

Noble has been holding back raising of prices for a long time. It was just time based on added costs of doing business. Other companies raised their prices a while ago.
The price jump is justified for going from all plastic to plastic and cnc'd aluminum.

"Just to have the shells painted with a little color"
To Clarify
The second generation housing is an ABS housing, polished, with the injection seams reduced, and the injection gate marks contained in the shell rather than outside of the shell. In other words, it is a new design, new housing, new molds.....
Further more, the "caps" of the housing are made from CNC aluminium, not die cast, not stamped, and not plastic.....
If by "you guys" you mean Noble, we may have some N3 IEMs in stock now, you would need to contact Brannan and ask him regarding that.
John, isn't this also the first price increase since starting the company?

Id say it is the first substantial price increase for us, but comparatively speaking, our price increases are modest

When can we expect some Wizard designed new models?

Hard to say really. The primary goal is to get the new line built first, and then if time permits, we can focus on Wizard designs.

Just gonna throw this out for the early reviewers (I know the other Noble thread seems to get more traffic, but since this is focused on this particular line...), would love to see some in ear shots of these bad boys. Want to see how much they stick out.
Also, for anyone at Noble, would you guys be able to do a "custom" but use the universal shell as the mold instead of my impressions?
