I've been out of the game for way, way too long. Sorry if this has been covered before, searching the forum doesn't bring up anything relevant.
 
Are there any companies (or savvy forum members) who can re-cable IEMs for a price? Both of my models are older than 2 years and Klipsch won't even give me a quote on repair. 
 
Custom 3's have cut out in left ear, and the rubber cabling has burst through the nylon woven casing on the cables in several places. (strange for being kept in carrying case 100% of the time when not in use)

Image X10's both ear pieces work, however there is a crack in the wire leading to the right ear that exposes the copper inside. It's only a matter of time before this goes out.
 
Thanks a million for any help.

Brian at BTG-Audio has modified my Klipsch Custom 3 by removing the cursed cable and adding in universal Westone/JH Audio compatible pin housing so you can use any removable and compatible cable.  Here's of picture of mine from his site that Brian did a while back:

The mod costed around $45 if I recall.
 
Not sure about your X10 as I've never seen one recabled or modified like the C3.
