The FitEar CIEM Impressions Thread

Ears will change with growing up or also losing/gaining lots of weight. After losing so many kilos, I also needed refits for my old monitors, they were not FitEar monitors but they were ciems. You might want to keep these facts in mind. I am not trying to say it will happen to you, but in my experience there is a good chance.

Just curious: does anyone have a 335 that ISN'T fully solid/hollow?
My 335s are not fully solid, it didn't completely bother me but I'm just curious if anyone else is in the same boat as me.

Mine is not fully filled. Haven't notice it until one of my friend pointed it out :D .

Am from singapore, made mine on the 26th. haha, i think we will be in the same batch. Hope there's not 3 month wait! you ordered the 335?


Yup I ordered the 335. I'm a little worried about my impressions, I twitched a little and experienced pain when doing the impressions. My friends told me that this was not normal and smiling/twitching will affect the ear impressions and fit. Hope it will be good. Anyone has good experience with refit?

It's completely normal. When I did my impression at FitEar Japan, they even told me to talk and move my jaw as much as possible. And my earphone fits perfectly.

To get the best fit (and I think it's recommended by Fitear) one needs to open and close the jaw a few times according to instructions. A bit of smiling probably won't hurt.
 
From my experience Fitear earphones pair best with their own Fitear cables. Had tried a handful of other offerings but was never impressed with the outcome - especially the ALO SXC, while it pairs very well with virtually all my other earphones, it just doesn't work with the any of the Fitears. Had been using a 000 re-terminated with a Nakamura plug with my 335DWSR in balanced mode, and a 005 in single end mode.

Yup, when I took my impressions at Jaben, they also told me to talk, smile and twitch. Just do whatever that you will do while you are using your CIEM. The final 335DW fits quite well for me as well.
 
For cable, I have used other cables such as Toxic Silver Widow, Whiplash TWAg v3, but eventually went back to the Fitear 001 that came with my 335DW, and then 006b due to the balanced setup for my AK320.

Are there any reasons why you went back with stock cable? (Portability/sound(?))

Before upgrade to SR, the Toxic Silver Widow sounds perfect with the 335DW. But after upgrade to SR, I felt that the mid becomes rollover with the Toxic cable. Then I try the Whiplash and got similar result. However, the Fitear cables magically fixed that issue and are also more portable than the Toxic and Whiplash. Hence now I live happily with the 335DWSR+006b.

I tried tried party cable and still went back to get 000 cable... somehow i feel fitear cable suit their IEM CIEM better.
