I received my UM56 and do not like them one bit. I'm afraid that my ears will bleed the next time I try them on. I believe the impressions ok - but a bit tight. We might be able to work with the existing impressions. The major issue is the material and length. Perhaps we can shorten a bit and shrink them down? Should I continue working with the audiologist or is this something I can work with Westone directly? This silicon material is not ideal at all.
Do any of you depend on lube? I think that's silly, too. One of the benefits of a custom tip is that you won't need to replace foams any more. But that benefit is gone if you need to keep a supply of lube around - not to mention the additional effort of insert/removing.
