I'm leaving the topic w80.
no, I think I'll stay here, they are too expensive for me.

Seriously Westone, sort out the issues people are having with the numerous mmx failings or the cracking face plates before releasing new toys please!
I just sent Westone my second pair of W60's because of connector problems. I bought my original pair just over a year ago. The service rep told me that she wasn't aware of a design issue with the mmx connectors on the W60.
I've also received several faceplates to replace the cracked ones. I think I've resolved the problem with the faceplates by putting a small dab of silicone sealant behind each lobe of the faceplate. When it cures it provides a 'cushion' to fill the gap and prevent flexing (and cracking) of the faceplate. If you want to remove the faceplate, gently lift the lobes and the plate will slide off. At least I didn't have to use any duct tape!
I agree that Westone needs to resolve their design issues with the W60.
I love the W60's; I just wish they were more dependable. I am glad that some users have never experienced these issues with their W60s.

Hey fellas, any idea where I can get hold of one of the little screws that hold the faceplates in pace?
I have some W60s on a loaner for a review I'm doing and sadly both faceplates are cracked down the middle and have split in too. Not my doing I must add! I'm guessing the little screw on the left hand IEM wasn't secure, because I've just noticed it is now missing.
I've tried emailing Westone via their contact page, but it errors out each time.
Ouch, so the screw fell out while the faceplate is still there? Strange how it cracked, maybe the previous owner over-tighten it? But either way, let me ping my Westone contact and if you can, PM me your email so I can forward it to them to contact you directly.

I'm presuming over-tightening and the owner confirmed he is inclined to do that some times.
