I get that, but why? It seems like a great product at a great price point. The only reason I see to discontinue is lack of profit at the $150 price point.

I hate taking my W30 to the gym, especially since I almost lost them twice. The W30 drivers are $400 MSRP ($200-250 replacement price used). The Westone v1 bluetooth cable is an additional $100 and the v2 cable is $150. Then I found the Westone Wx is $150 (on sale for $99.99 in some places...

Cool, I just randomly searched for local meets and ran into this thread. Meet is only 5 weeks away :)   I'll try my best to be there. My "gear" is somewhat limited so I don't think I'll have a setup/booth, but I'm definetly down to join in on the fun...

I've owned a pair of these for a few months. They are very water resistant and they sound decent. I also own a pair of Sennheiser IE7s and Westone UM2s. I tend to go to the UM2s the most often out of all 3 because I get the best fit/seal/soundl, but they are all solid headphones for the gym.  ...

I used just about every brand of entry-level IEMs and think the UM1 + Complys is the best option. The IEM design allows it to sit flush in the ear and the complys don't slip out. The Marshmallows will also stay in and are the cheaper alternative (easier to replace due to cost), but they don't...

SweetWater had them for $18.48 with FREE shipping. I ordered a pair of pads from Sweetwater since my...
