A few do for ~$300 dollars.

Emailed in Autumn of '17 about the Angie Mk 1's specifically, and these two said yes:
Singapore based Null-Audio and US based Perfect Seal Laboratories.

Can't remember which resheller offered to preserve the FreqPhase tube layout on their website, but they do exist.
Google may turn them up.

I contacted JH Audio about converting my Angie II and they stated they do not convert universals to customs.
How about Inearz in Florida? Angie might be a different proposition, but they'd refit the old TF10s to custom. Might be worth an inquiry.
Oh, never mind. "I had actually contacted InEarz back when I still had my Angie II, but sadly they were phasing out their reshelling service"

I bought two cables from Nul in Singapore. Good sound, but weak and shortlived. I'll not trust them with anything valuable of mine. Up to you.

what type of connectors? What made it short lived? I'm looking at an mmcx null right now for my Jupiter, but have a suspicion that unless the connectors are beryllium, they won't really last after swiveling around for 6+ months.

I bought the midlevel cable (2-pinned for TF10). Can't recall the model name. Improved sound over stock, but one channel near the connector died in less than a month. Stupidly, I hoped it was a fluke, and bought the same one. Other ear connection died in less than a month. That was when business was better and I could afford to take stupid chances. I'll not let them have any more business of mine. Bought from Silverblue audio with no trouble. Moon Audio: had one problem with Angie SilverDragon: repaired with no trouble.

dude, that's shame on null! has to be poor soldering technique or material. 2 pin is normally very robust connection and little to go wrong (except maybe a pin breaking off in the IEM)! for it to happen twice on two different sides is rubbish on them.

I'll look into Perfect Seal and see what they can offer. I love the Angies, except for the fact that I keep having to push them back in. I suspect weight and size are the problems.

Honestly
Has anyone attempted to cut the nozzle down in a JH Universal, the nozzle is just too long for my ears and I believe if it was a few millimeters shorter there would be a much better fit for me. I love the sound of the Angie and the 13v2pro, but both have long nozzles.
hadn't thought about that. My problem is the left earpiece slowly slides out of optimum position, constantly needing to be pushed in again. For me, I'm thinking the nozels are too short. I'd almost be careful, as it can't be undone.

Not entirely true. I picked up a used Roxanne a while back with a broken nozzle. The sound tubes were exposed. I made my own nozzle using Bondic. I’ll try to find pictures of the before and after. I ended up selling the Roxanne as I still had fit issues with it because of the bulb like shell. I think the greater issue is the sound tubes. You can shorten the nozzle itself, but then you’d have exposed sound tubes and I’m not sure what effect it would have on the sound if you shorten the sound tubes.

My problem with JH universals is the shell shape. Because of the rounded bulb shape after a while the IEM just kind of slides out of the ear.
