New custom IEM company - Custom Art: discussion, review, and impressions thread

[Cotnijoe]

A suggestion for @piotr . Perhaps it would be helpful to provide the eartips that you feel represent the custom sound the best, which i guess in this case would be sony hybrids. Unfortunately I dont have sony hybrids to play with in my box of tips. While im not finding the bass roll off using comply, maybe using comply tips isnt the best idea for the people to come in the tour.

I discussed this with some tour members and  asked the if they needed some tips. The conclusion was that everyone seemed to have matching sleeves in their possession

Ok i see. I juat thought it could help with consistency.

so i used spinfit and the subbass did fill up a bit more, so i made some edits tp my review

I'm glad to hear the discussion evolving regarding bass extension. My Sony Hybrids are ready and waiting when I get these next week!

Hahaha you're coming from Tellement Nomade aren't you? Too bad I left that forum, otherwise I'd have answered you there.
 
To be honest I wouldn't recommend the Music One for either hard rock, nor classical music. It wouldn't be that bad but you would want a bigger soundstage and better spatialization for classical music and I think for hard rock the guitars wouldn't sound powerful and clean enough.
Nonetheless it all depends on the budget you have but I'd advise you to take a look at the Pro330 v2 rather than the M1.

Thanx
And the carbo tenor or doppio we are not in same race but it seems amazing ?

I dont understand the hype about the Carbo Tenore. I hate them, they're not even worth the 40€ they cost imho. The Doppio is somewhat better, but in that case I'd still take the SA7's. Anyway they're unis, nothing comparable with the comfort of a CIEM.

I need to bring the Music One again into the light... I can't understand how it is possible to get such a balanced sounding CIEM for this low price.

 
I have much more expensive ones like Harmony 8 Pro or STAX SR-002 IEM, but if you compare price/performance ratio the Music One as CIEM is still unbeaten.

 
My Music One is still excessive in use, because it is not so source dependent like my other gear (of course it's a single BA driver), it sounds at least on my regular Sony smartphone as great as on my iBasso or FiiO DAPs.

While I don't hate the Tenores, I think they're merely ok for the price. They're certainly nothing special IMHO. Comparing them to piotrus-g's creations is just silly!

Hey fellas, I am finally back. Apologize for my lack of presence, my pc was broken and I had to get it repaired, it took me awhile and quite a good amount of money unfortunately (as a student it hurts).

On the other hand, I have my Ei.3 for several days. They are absolutely stunning in person, has even better fit than my legendary H8 (kudos to Peter for his awesome acrylic processing skills). They sound out of this world if you keep in mind that the price is only 300 USD which makes them the cheapest 3 BA ciem in the world as far as I know.

I will post my review later on after I spend more time with them. Just to tease you I can give you several key words. Natural, realistic and smooth, quality over the whole spectrum, overall fine with pretty much every kind of music. So yeah, as you would expect from Peter, we are talking about another hell of a tuning here.

With his inexpensive Music One and its tuning Peter already dropped my jaw long time ago, now we have a new miracle in acrylic form... Ei.3 might have an entry level ciem price but it sounds more like a mid fi or upper mid fi to my ears. Yup, that good.

Oh also, my old Crescent (unique custom tuned ciem 6BA, 6 WAY, 6 TUBES) will be on sale. The only reason is as a master student (who couldn't finish his program on time) I need money to be able to finish my studies. I will soon create the post on for sale section, if you have any questions about it, you can send me a PM, I shall answer as soon as I see it.

Oh, I was so excited to be back, I forgot to post the picture of my Ei.3.
