I wonder if they beat up my E500 and my Westone UM2 customs...

Yikes! Good find!

I placed an order of the Shure Black Foam Sleeves along with the 3... might have to get Flavio to cancel my foamies order if they don't fit.

That'd be kinda dumb though, wouldn't westone have to make an entirely new set of tips just for the 3?

The "3" is not a triple driver. triple driver = dual bass, single high 3-way = low driver, mid driver, high driver

OK, did a search on this thread and saw this on page 4.

So according to powerhound, um56 fits the 3, and since um56 fits all those shure IEMs, it must mean that the shure black foamies must fit the 3 too then... sooo where is Keith getting his "different tips" source from?

Thanks - that's good news! I must've read that early on as I was reading through this thread, but forgotten about it

Maybe Keith's information is a little dated - his post was in Feb.

Guess that means I can safely preorder mine too. We need a :3smile: Or maybe this will do since it's nigh invisible?

Earphonesolutions has estimated delivery date of May 16 if you pay for overnight FedEX, so either the website is wrong, or they have them in stock. Flavio?

 

[Trager]

I thought it was pretty firmly established that suppliers aren't supposed to ship until 5/21?

 

[audiomagnate]

Maybe they just didn't update their website after the last delay.

I can't see an actual date on the Westone 3 page at EarphoneSolutions;

http://www.earphonesolutions.com/we3newtrdrea.html

The only thing I can see is "Estimated Delivery Dates" when you select "When Will I Receive my Order?", this would be a general calculation used for all delivery estimates on the site which would tag on the ETA dates from today's date.

If that makes sense.

 

[ZARIM]

I ordered mine(Westone 3)...........

Those estimated dates are only good for items in stock not for preorders.

I'm also more than just a little curious about this.

There in no date as of yet or even a suggested timetable. Nobody wants them out more then me. I have my impressions sitting on my desk waiting to send in to Westone the moment I get the word. I harass Doug almost everyday about it.

don't impressions have a finite lifespan?

 

[PeterDLai]

Are these really going to retail for the MSRP that EarphoneSolutions lists? ($569.00)

 

[kuden]

the msrp is 399$ at most , not sure if they fixed it at that yet , but it's not higher that's for sure.
