I saw these UE 10s on eBay two days ago and thought if i could have UE in Irvine, about 35 minutes from my house, take my ear impressions then they could make customs to perfectly fit my ears and this might be a good deal.
so i called UE customer service and to my surprise UE said no can do. a few hours later i called back and asked, if i am an original UE10 owner and two or three years later my ear canal changes as a result of wearing them, age, or gaining or losing weight would UE recast in the event they no longer provided a secure fit. again, the UE rep said no. she explained the recasting process could possibly damage the drivers.
i am still a bit surprised--spend $900 plus and get an incredible product, you can't sell nor get any fit guarantees past the first 30 days.
has anyone with custom monitors noticed the fit changing over time, specifically getting looser? do any of the iem companies provide custom recasting?
