I've done a search, and read about 10 or more threads, but still I have a few questions deciding between the two options, and would like to have a clearer understanding of the pros and cons. Since Chinese manufacturers sell customs cheaply, price is not an issue.
My main worry is the changing of the ear canal, and thus the "durability" of customs, in terms of needing a remolding after a few years. What if for example one wears braces, ar has TMJ (temporomandibular joint disorders)? Will the fit change over time and require a remolding? Has anybody ever had this issues, and maybe can explain how many years had elapsed before a remolding was needed? How about a small change in fit, that maybe made the custom a little more painful, or loose (thus reducing isolation)?
In terms of comfort and sound, I haven't been able to find a consensus. It seems there is not a clear answer, maybe someone can elucidate on that?
