I've managed to get some shots, but I do apologise for the quality, as I've only my camera phone to take them with.

After a few more hours with them, I am very glad that I decided to take the plunge, as they have enhanced my listening experience with the W3's all round.

As you will see, the do encase the housing a little, but they don't protude much at all and the red colour looks better than I had hoped.

Comfort is a big improvement as well, perfect isolation and as I said before, I forget that I have them in after a couple of minutes.

Thanks to ottoyu34, who's reviews and opinions pushed me over the edge and I'm extremely glad that I did and so is my old man, who has just ordered a voucher for a pair with his Triple.fi's.

How long ago did you order? Or I guess, what did they say their turn-around time would be? Definitely would like to hear your impressions.

Glad you like them, did you go for ACS due to the posts on avforums, if so why not post there as well - for the UK folk.

Not being an experienced audiophile, all I can do is to reiterate my previous comments about the perfect isolation and comfort and the overall improvement in the sound, from bass to treble and it being a great investment, which has transformed the W3's from a great set, into a superb set of phones.

As I also stated earlier, the camera phone doesn't do them justice at all, they are a great looking, vivid red coloured set of moulds that complete my set up perfectly.

I went by what you posted in there, but mostly because of the experience of ottoyu34, who actually used ACS.

I do see your point though and will post in there tonight.
