ListenHear - Custom Earmolds for Headphones Has anyone ordered from them before? Getting my impressions done on Wednesday and hope to get the order in by the end of the week.

Keep us posted. I would do it in a second from a vendor within the U.S. with good rep.

That is so not true. Talk to Stacy the CS rep. and cry for "transparent black"

Will do. Hopefully they will have a quick turn around. I'll update this thread once I receive them.

Thanks...I sent them an email today myself. They replied an asked for my address to give me some audioligists in my area.. I'll Keep posted. Gotta make sure I get everything right as in over the ear etc. Have to look back over this thread.

Sent my order and impressions in to ListenHear today. Should get there by Monday. Sent an email asking about turn around time too. One step closer.

 

[ottoyu34]

Interesting. Keep us updated.

I wanna see a good picture of it

I'm getting a pair made next week but wanted to ask how the cable down compares to cable up, as natively the are meant to worn cable up, but for me the cable on the right keeps jumping out from behind the ears so I'd prefer cable down.

 

[ottoyu34]

few advantages for cable-up from my personal opinion:

1. Less strain on the ear canal
2. way less microphonics
3. looks better, instead of weird driver housing sticking out
4. cable-down has slighty bloated low-end just like inserting them far in with universal tips.

I would suggest cable up.

 

[koruki]

thanks a lot for the advice

ListenHear has received my impressions and said they looked good. Should be about a week turn around time. The cost of the custom sleeves includes FedEx ground shipping. That was a nice surprise. If they are able to keep the week time frame, I should have them by next Monday.

 

[ottoyu34]

Great to hear. So how much are they in total (USD)?

I will see what I can do for the mini-meet.

There should be few others member who should have recieved the custom tips during these two weeks.

Once they heard it, we'd never hear from them.
