Personally, I don't think customs are for everyone. And from my experience, I've owned 3 different IEMs (with another on its way) and have never had any problems with tips or fitting.

I, too, will probably be selling my esw10s to help fund these. Jerry already has my molds. I compared my UE11s to the universal 13s, and the 13s won. I'm pretty excited. People shouldn't forget, though, that he had others in his lineup. I liked the JH11, but didn't listen to the others. I kinda wish I had now. He has an entry-level one starting at around $400 (I think), that I'm pretty sure, based on the two I heard, would probably kick the pants off any universal in that price range.

Yes, 399 for a custom 2 driver IEM is unbelievable. Well my molds go off today. I am curious to see the carbon case. Does anyone have an image?

Thanks!

It's ok but I actually like the cases that Westone uses better. Well they are cheap enough so I can always pick one up. Maybe the case is nice on the inside though. Anyway, I don't listen with cases. :^)

Ok, I didn't express myself correctly. (English is not my primary language..)

The problem that I had with the Westone 3 was not with the comfort but with the sound. It was a nightmare for me to find the right tip to get a good amount of treble.

As long as I have the perfect sound signature for my tastes with the JH13, I think that I can live with the fact the JH13 won't be as comfortable as the W3 with the comply tips.

You can't get a trademarked logo, but that would be excellent. It's my avatar on another forum. Go Wings!

As much of a Jerry Harvey fan I am....none of his new lineup is for me as I am "out" of the custom market. My ear canals are a poor shape to get a good fit, and I told myself I won't go through that again.

What I wish is that Jerry would release a (very) high end universal fit.....for those of us with these "ear canal handicaps".

Art work on the 13's is 50 dollars extra. Not bad. I have in mind what I want but I am not sure of the main color yet. Ice blue?
