...Let's get an idea on this. To address the various discussions that emerge regarding potential fit issues, etc for those ordering Livewires I have proposed this thread over at the http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f4/liv...3/#post3817531 Thread - and now it's here ready for you Livewires purchasers to respond to.

Let's find out how many of us keep them, whether that be straight out of the box or after refits or a settling time, and, of course, whether anybody returned them (it'd be great to see what stories emerge in addition to the statistics).

Me first - I have to vote 'b' and 'c' because my Livewires did require rework and the reworked ones did take a few weeks before they were snug and comfortable in my ears. But they remain with me - sadly no 'a' vote for me but also, more importantly, no 'd' vote either!

Lovin' my Livewires

.

How about you?

I'm half way between B and C, my right ear could probably do with a refit, but i procrastinate too much and i don't want to be without them for x number of weeks

 

[NeObliviscaris]

Will vote once I get em back from the team to see what the final verdict is

 

[Kosmic]

They were A1 from Day1.

 

[eternality.pl]

I am the b option, but ociassionally i feel like C

That's interesting. The two that chose 'd', haven't posted to give a reason why they sent them back for a refund. It would be helpful to all of us to hear why.

No doubt,as my wife and I are seriously considering a pair each,we want to know.

I hate it,when folks done post the why's and just vote in the poll.

I haven't seen anyone, anywhere, post that they sent them back for a refund. I'm not saying that people haven't, but from my own observations on Livewire threads in this forum, they must be as rare as hen's teeth.

That makes me surprised to see two "d" votes.

C vote

I'm not surprised to see "d" votes. As I suggested in the http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f4/liv...3/#post3817531 thread, I figure some people don't want to progress through what they might perceive as the 'hassle' of rework. That's a guess only but it seems to me to be the most likely cause (all other things being equal).

I left the poll anonymous partly to ensure that anyone who votes in it wasn't followed-up for their reasons/experiences - that sharing experiences was a personal choice (it's a shame people can't share their experiences anonymously as I too would be interested in confirming my assumptions.

).

C -vote for me. I had fit and comfort issues as well as some audio issues the first time around. I think the audio issues were due to the fit not being right.

Now after the re-fit, things could not be better. They fit like a champ and sound great!

 

[BIG POPPA]

I went to an audiologist that had a clue what they were doing. I had reasonable expectations, had the right equipment. If you lack in one of these areas you will be disappointed.

 

[matias m.]

a - vote

A "D" vote from me. I loved the sound, but I had some major fit issues with my pair that, even after two adjustments, still couldn't be resolved. I had them in my possession for 5 days out of almost 30. The turnaround time for the adjustments was what eventually made me go ahead and claim the return. I can't entirely fault the company for this. I know for a fact I have very finicky ears. It took me over two years to finally find an IEM that sounded great AND and was comfortable to wear. Had I not found the q-JAYS I would have tried the Livewire again with my tax money this year.

How do you get a poll with 4 replies to each of A-D, and get 33% and not 25% ??
