Wow EFN, these are amazing. You really got a hand for these things.
I like how you chose to have the random numbers on the shrinkwrap. Looks original.

This appears to be a very nice work!
You did it by yourself and only for yourself? Or you are thinking to create a recabling services?
Overall i like your work, the Shures now seem some kind "militar" stuff and indestructible too.

If my SE530's ever die and Shure won't help me out, I damn sure know who to PM
Amazing job! Nothing short of superb craftsmanship

Yep. You can say it's hard. Lots of patience and dexterity needed to work the shells.

Excellent work PFN!
I liked the gun metal, but I think I like your shells better. They are more rugged looking.
Doesn't suprise me that you get stronger highs and give up some bass with the silver. That's been my experience when I DIYd some silver ICs.
It's good to see the Shure E500 being maxed out. They are wonderful IEMs if not a bit too dark stock.
I still think you should have gone through with the PFE order. They are very much like Etys but without the harshness on certain recordings and a perfect balance all the way to the very low frequencies unlike the Etys. They also share the thicker sound of the Shures but aren't as colored. Of course they don't need any modding to sound better, so maybe it's best that you passed on them.
Anyway, the fact that you compared the Shures to E-stat IEMs speaks volume! Well done!

My 530's have gone exactly the same way - Hard and cracked.
They're out of warranty and I'm really debious about sending them to NullAudio from the UK, as when I've mailed them asking questions, they've been really hit and miss about coming back to me.
You've done an excellent job there by the way EFN!
