Stunning. I couldn't even guess, but I am curious.

 
I was stumped too.
 

Wood

 
Nope.
 
I can tell you guys one thing though... it looks way better in person.

  You killed a rare micro zebra?

That was a long time ago m'kay?  I was young... impressionable... and I needed the money.  Don't judge me!  

 
But no, that's not what this is.

It looks like yarn or some sort of cloth to me.

 

[Mcberto]

Thinking of selling my KEF LS50's for a pair of K10s...

 

[tranhieu]

Some sort of fabric that is painted over? Carbon fiber?
 
Anyhow great job. Can't figure out how you guys nailed it.

Hey guys,

Have the lacquer on any of your K10U's cracked?

I recently bought a K10U with a bit of a cracked paint/lacquer (still completely safe and usable as the paint does not peel), as it was the one and only Canjam red K10U, and i figured cracked or not, it is a rare piece of Noble history and is worth buying.

I understood that the warranty is non transferable, and was willing to pay a small sum to have it repaired. But as it turns out, brennan indicated it is likely to cost a few hundred dollars and that the cracked lacquer is most likely due to user error, and this is the part that ticked me off (i might be wrong and thus completely embarrass myself here.).

My question, how is it possible that cracked paint/lacquer is due to user error? Using the balance of probabilities,  it is much more likely that the lacquer was not applied properly (not dried properly before applying the next layer etc) or your lacquer was of such inferior quality that mere sweat and body oil can crack it.

Anyone here with a cracked lacquer? The red one is from Oct2014 Canjam. Its likely that any problems will be from K10U's purchased around that date.

I figure he means the only way to actually crack the lacquer is to drop the IEMs or forcefully hit them on something ... so user error. Presumably the lacquer wouldn't crack under normal circumstances and, as you suggested, "mere sweat and body oil" wouldn't be able to crack it.
