Dear fellow HpH members, In light that most of us do not have the spare cash for customed IEMs, and I know for a fact that several of us do have the more affordable option of Universal Custom Earmolds by Westone, courtesy of Jaben of course. This is not a show off thread It's more or less like a compilation thread, picture archiving and data-mining as [Top-Gun] calls it. I hope this thread would be a collection of the various "styles", "options", and choice of "colours" for anyone whos planning to get a pair themselves but are lost in the multitude of options amidst a severe lack of information... Please limit to a maximum of THREE photos for each pair of earmolds, a group photo is highly recommended Some guidelines to follow : 1) Please refrain from any discussion or questions in this particular thread. Please use the PM function if the need arises, or find another more relevent thread to post(a couple will be started soon enough) "e.g. How much are these earmolds? I want a pair!!! " are discouraged. 2) Please post pictures that are of decent quality. Ensure that the maximum resolution is not more than 800x600 for smoother and faster surfing for everyone. 3) Try to use a clear or solid background (black, white, blue) and proper lighting if possible, if you have a tripod, deploy and use it 4) Also please include information of the particular style, colour, material, options, and model of IEMs(non IEMs welcomed too) being paired with the earmolds. Last but not least, if you have a personal review or impression of the molds, do post us a link! Enjoy the thread! :lol:

![]() Westone UM56 Style No. 34 with default countersunk option (full earmold so it may cost abit more than the universal ones) in clear ice-cube option. My earmold material is Vinyl though, slightly harder than Silicon but more springy. Anyway, fongalv. I think that it is better than we have a mandatory "earmolds in ear" picture so that people may know how it looks like when it's worn and maybe this will be a decising factor for those image-conscious people

Due to some requests, I'm digging up this thread for some updates. Shure e500 with partially opaque black UM56: ![]() Very snugly e500+UM56 worn: ![]() Now, I'm pretty sure there are a lot more custom mold users now, official and un-official alike and I welcome the new adopters to contribute some images .
