True. Although where they need to earn my money is how they sound.

True that. In this regard, Noble has really pulled ahead of many of the other custom manufacturers. My K10s look great, are built well, and sound fantastic. A great combination.

  Can't comment on options 2&3, but I'm more than delighted with option 1. The only upgrade I envisage to this combo is to get a full custom K10, and that's more purely for aesthetic reasons.


Decided to go with option 1 too, the Hugo paired with K10Us is one mind blowing experience.

I had issues with being able to wear my K10U's for long periods of time as I believe my ear canal shape is off for the supplied tips.
 
I had a set of UE900 silicone tips from a previous set of IEMs, and I use the large ones on my K10U's. I wear them 8-10 hours a day with no fatigue at all.
 
For the $20 they cost, it may be worth it to give them a try. Hopefully they will help get the fit where you need it.

Dropping by to thank Jody for this tip.
I tried out all the stock Noble tips on my K10U and was having trouble finding a balance between comfort and seal.
I got the UE900 tips in today and they seal perfectly and they're extremely comfortable.
 
Highly recommended to anyone who owns a Noble universal and has fit issues.

Awesome. I am glad they are working well for you as well, and you are getting the full enjoyment out of your K10's.
 
Have fun.
 
Edit: For some reason I had $20 in my head for the cost, but at the $10 list price, it is even easier to try it out.

Can I ask where you got them from? While I'm happy with the tips I'm using (Meelectronic M6 Double-Flange), I'm always happy to see if they can me improved upon.
