but do note that this is what they "said". but if its true, its up to us to decide. Anyway, not trying to ruin their rep. Just that currently I have 2 pairs of IEM still with them Rooth and UM....

'Backlog' Do note that this is what treoo and null audio said. They can wait till enough orders and send together to save cost, or just use ems to save cost as well. Well, to and for china takes around 3 weeks already. One of the reason to just deal with the reshelling service provider straight, you will not get smoked by the middle person.

My Elpis is from Treoo which had waited for close to 8 weeks soon, while UM is from Stereo which I had more confidence in:)

Anyway, if not for the promo or freebies. I would had ordered directly from UM myself.

hope your um experience will be a good one. i got my um last time within 4-5 weeks. alot of forumers got it less than that.

On the other side, so far i have never seen anyone who got their customs within 5weeks with null audio or treoo. lol :D:D

besides the long waiting time, is there anything else i need to know if i wanna reshell with null audio??

Cause waiting time long, I'm the kind that can wait lol

EDIT: correct me if i'm wrong but seems like you're all bashing null audio because of the long waiting times. For me, no choice. Their prices are the only ones I can afford and if quality is satisfactory, i mean, why not lol

Not bashing la... Null Audio service is not bad la. Talk to kelvin himself and he is pretty patient. But its more the turn around time for reshell or custom. Especially when Rooth and UM share same lab.

Worried that that Null Audio claims that Rooth side is focusing on Elpis production and will affect UM side as well.

Anyway Elpis is late on delivery liao. this week the first batch receiving liao, my one clear shell also no news yet.

I think in business side of view, I think punctuality in delivery of goods is very very important. As consumers we all know custom will take 6 - 8 weeks but anytime longer I felt its too much...

hm... alright.

Assuming waiting time isn't a problem, is there anything else I need to be aware of by them?

Yeah they all seem like pretty nice people actually

Quote Stephen goh: 'Well, this is definitely up to you.
Unique Melody and Rooth Lab are actually under the same company, but they have different technician groups working on these two different "brands/names".
So the head company decided that they will give UM and Rooth different discount products for this sale event.'

Apparently they are done in difference labs by different person. Workmanship wise also different, that's whoy price also different. Don't mix

I am just back from the rooth and um lab today, I can assure you that they are done by same technicians in the same lab:)

I did not have the chance to go through each of the order schedule today and I am now stuck in the airport, flight delay lol.

I have talked to um/rooth boss on the order status issue and they are working with a software company to build a web app so everybody could track their order status with entry of their order number. A progress stage would be shown to customer.

I would receive next shipping manifest soon, and I will check whether yours are inside. Meanwhile do check on the updates in the Elpis thread on the changes.

Huh? Means we order through Stereo also will get delay due to Rooth's orders? If done by same technicians, doesn't that mean that Rooth and UM are the same?

Good to hear that UM/Rooth Lao Ban has plans to provide better service for their customers (i'm extremely happy!).

How UM arrange their work schedule is their issue. However I think all UM/Rooth orders will be a bit slow recently. It is already quite packed before we sent in our Elpis order and it is due to large order from Japan. Compare to their quantity, our orders are like ants versus elephant.
