well, technicly, Q1 ends with april, i was hoping to pick up a pair for my birthday, which is on the 2nd week of april, but i guess it wont be possible,

 

[KUNFUCHOPSTICKS]

anyone know if it will also be available in clear?


Also: man the pouch in picture looks suspiciously exactly like ety pouch. And of course Westone use to make Shure IEMs so same clearflex and silicone sleeve.

Your worrying if they will be available in clear, lets worry about that when they come out.

wow

In light of the normally active Westone letting their MotT thread crash and burn, and in light of no more participation elsewhere, and in light of the fact that they've left resellers completely in the dark, and the fact that any email or phone call results in the same canned response -

The Westone 3s don't exist. No one know's what happened but them, but without any proof that they do exist, the conclusion is that they don't.

They would have been the next step, perhaps. Now we'll never know.

Yo, Mr. Ray Samuels, pls sell your prototype Westone 3 to me... PM me, ok.....

Hahahahaha.....

 

[egokun]

No need to worry, really. They're obviously waiting for me to have the money for a pair. Which won't be for quite some time... unless you guys want to make a small donation

 

[flashbak]

You folks amaze me with your loyalty to this product never having heard it! I would have jumped ship a long time ago!!! This is rediculous leaving you all hanging like this. Westone shame on you!

 

[BushGuy]

I remember the original reason given for delay was supposed to be some sort of packaging glitch.........clearly, there were/are other unmentionable problems.

 

[KUNFUCHOPSTICKS]

It has all been a prank. They don't actually exist.

 

[HeadphoneAddict]

Wow. Pretty elaborate prank, to even make working mockups to fool those of us who listened to them...

It was a problem with sonic welding of the plastic parts, to make it a one piece coherent package - that kind of packaging.
