This thread contains so much useful information it should be stickied so it won't be buried away.

Just to bump it up, I thought I'll post this:

AE4195E3-84C0-4647-8EAD-E3454973DB41_zps6rkedf7h.jpg


Got it done on Saturday at ACE Hearing, will be used to make a pair of Hidition NT 6.

The lady who did it for me is quite professional, first check my ear for obstruction and after noting the size of my ear canals, she made the cotton tip smaller, then carefully insert them into my ears. I remember last time when I did mine at Jaben, I felt some sharp pain when the cotton tips were inserted, but this time, very comfy haha.

I did mine closed mouth (as recommend in a head-fi Hidition thread). To be honest, I don't get why we should make open mouth; musicians use their CIEM when they're singing on stage, so it makes sense that their ear impressions should be open-mouth. We are going to use our CIEMs mostly for music-listening when our mouths are shut so shouldn't our ear impressions be closed?

Anyway the lady told me that there is no difference between open and closed unless your ear canals are narrow. Then you'll need to do open mouth to straighten the ear canals.

The session this time round is also much shorter than what I remembered at Jaben. Just a few mins and the ear impressions should be taken out.

Now my only worries is that there are ear wax at the end of the ear impressions. I'm not sure if Hidition will be able to work with them but ACE Hearing says I can go down and do again if they are rejected.

Overall, if you need ear impressions done, I recommend ACE Hearing :D

Still got a lot of information to update.

Hope this thread can provide information to those who are interested in buying CIEMs on models available and who is selling them.

Haha maybe is just me but i thought having overlaps will dilute the focus and some useful discussion will not be captured in the individual threads as some will post here, while the consolidated thread will just be full of multiple brands discussion and hard to find the relevant info.

This thread is more of a concise version of information on the different brands, but of course, this thread will continued to be updated.

I am hoping this thread will be used more for general discussion and Q&A, while the individual appreciation threads will be more for upcoming products and developments related to those brands themselves.

While you are at it, maybe include the prices of each Ciem?

It may not be wise to include the price as sometimes the price changes, existence of promotion and multiple dealers selling the same brands at different prices.
