Biggest problem I had with my Angie customs is they showed up a day early and I was crushed that I'd missed the delivery.

  So they sat there an extra day at UPS/PO?  And you knew they were there but couldn't get to them?  That IS frustrating.  Hope you are enjoying them now.

I'm surprised to hear that there have been issues with the quality of the Angie's. They are my go to IEMs right now, and the quality seems perfect so far. I haven't tried any of the more expensive IEMs, but I am happy with what I paid for from the Angies so far.

What's the lead times on customs these days? I never ordered last year and already have impressions, so I'm looking to finally get a set...

On Jan 5, 2016 I was told that the current lead time is 15-20 business days. I'm currently sitting at ~23 business days (since Dec 22, 2015 when my impressions were received)  and my order status is still "Impressions received and order processed."

My guess is that you fell into the middle of the holiday season and got pushed back because they were closed.  Most likely your clock began to tick after the 1st.

I just got my customs last week. (Unfortunately, they need to go back for some adjustments.) The order status is not necessarily accurate!! Mine had already shipped when I called them, even tho my order had the "impressions received..." status.
 
I recommend you give them a call.

Just got my pair of K10SLA CIEM in. I'll be comparing them to the Angie later after I get acquainted with the Noble sound signature.

Not that I'm unhappy with the Angie, I love her to death, just curiosity had me try a different brand.

Yeah, I still love Angie too. But I've been terribly curious about the Solar.

Also curious about your impressions of the K10. That's another legend I wish to try one day.

What does SLA mean?

A comparison would be very helpful! I am planning to get the K10 (Customs) too in the summer and I wonder how it will fare against the JH Siren Series (I have the Layla).
 
The K10 has 21 five-star reviews while the Layla doesn't have a single review. Lol, not that it means anything

/OT

SLA is Noble's fast 3D printed version of their custom acrylic CIEM. Funny thing is I ordered them because I'm impatient, but because my dealer held on to my impressions inexplicably for a couple weeks before shipping them to Noble on Christmas Eve (really?) I ended up waiting for 55 days in total. It's supposed to be a 10 business day turn around (two weeks). Needless to say, I won't be using that dealer anymore and regret not going for a full custom design given the stupid length of time I waited for a Black Friday sale item. The idiot also sold my BTS (Bluetooth accessory) that was a part of the sale, so now I need to wait for that to come in also. Bad business.

Anyway.......... Back to the Angie......

I was listening to my UERMs today and loving them.

Variety is the spice of life!

 

[olddude]

The UERM is relatively flat, like the Angie, but does it so differently that it is nice to hear those differences.  The UERM sound is much more cohesive, a wide soundstage of music with individual instruments/voices popping out of the whole in different locations and volumes.  The Angie seems to be made up of a whole bunch of discrete sounds across the sound stage that, all together, comprise the music.  Both sound glorious, just very different.  .

Ooh... new toy syndrome will set in surely. Enjoy them!
