Currently, the only accurate way to tell if your 335 is eligible for upgrade is to send them to FitEar for their checking, or let Suyama san check for you if he came to your place. You will get a certificate that tells your 335 can upgrade or not and you need to submit that certificate to FitEar when you order for the upgrade.

 
Thanks hkppl, couldn't wait for Mr. Suyama to visit our country

Finally my 335s have come back from a long 4 month repair. ~.~ 
 
FitEar charged 100 USD for the repair, I guess it was past warranty or something. But the issue is gone for good, and I am happy.

Congrats! What was the problem? Wonder why you have to pay $100 though. Was that Jaben or was that Fitear that billed you?

It was the faceplate ringing issue with the springs in the faceplate. I might have damaged it by using an aftermarket cable. Idk.
It was from FitEar and then Jaben had me cover the costs. So the 100 usd would be for the faceplate I guess. Really wish I was near a Jaben though. I've learned my lesson doing things via long distance and emails. (Would prob still do that for the next FitEar tho)...


Still waiting for that workaround, to be able to purchase a Fitear custom while vacationing in japan.

Anyone noticed any significant sound changes after burning in?

 

[joshuachew]

Anybody got any news on what's the latest turn around time right now?

I would say around 5-6 months for SG/MY orders

 

[Ra97oR]

Is it just me or it is getting longer and longer for FitEar orders?

Sadly, you are correct.

My 335DW SR arrived 3 weeks after I placed my order in Jaben HK, exactly the duration they promised before.

If it is just for the mod it might take less time than for an actual ciem.

Took a month for mine. Yes it should not be a overly technical process after they spent so much time perfecting the procedure. The only thing holding progress is the (relatively) large demand vs boutique-style uber-detail-oriented manufacturing in the Chiba facility. The fully filled shell is still perfectly transparent after the mod. Not the slightest hint that it had been pried open and worked on.

It looks like FitEar's gone hybrid with the new FitEar Air - a collaboration with Fostex :-

I wish they did a uni version.

Are these an actual product or another one of their one-off concepts? Perhaps they're leveraging their recent excursions into 3D printing, though the Fostex collaboration comes as a bit of a surprise. It's pictured in multiple faceplate colours and all, so I'm guessing it'll actually be available for order in Japan soon?
