Damn, now I'm going to have to ask about custom colours for my Fibae 3's, although the impressions only landed in Poland a few hours ago so plenty of time.

I love the red-and-black Sith theme. Really fitting for The Last Jedi's impending release.

Enjoy your F2s

In case anyone wanted to know details this is custom black transparent with red transparent gradient canals, icewood black the faceplate and red logos.

Since we seem to be on a roll when it comes to sharing designs on this thread, I'd like to show you guys a little photo Piotr shared with me today:



These are my finished FIBAE 3's and I personally think they look absolutely STUNNING! The design consists of a custom transparent turquoise shell, silver mirror foil faceplates, and a cut-out F3 logo that I designed in Photoshop. Piotr and his team have been experimenting with this material for the past few weeks. There are limitations to what designs can be done - and he claims their technique still requires refinement - but I think they've knocked it out of the park as far as the pictures have shown. I haven't seen the IEMs in person, but the package arrived at my house this afternoon and I should be able to take a look (and a listen) as soon as I fly back to Jakarta this Friday. Throughout all my conversations with Piotr, I can safely say that when it comes to tackling challenges and pushing the boundaries of what's possible, no one can do it quite like @piotrus-g and the Custom Art team. Once again, BRAVO!

Thank you for giving us challenges

Like I said...

Agreed. When the time finally comes for a flagship FIBAE IEM, I'd probably have amassed a ton of ideas to torture the Custom Art design team with...

Hi @Deezel177,
if I remember, you have the FIBAE 2 in silicon and now the 3 in acrylic, I would like to hear your thoughts about the 2 materials.

Hi @Deezel177,
if I remember, you have the FIBAE 2 in silicon and now the 3 in acrylic, I would like to hear your thoughts about the 2 materials.

I expressed my thoughts on acrylic vs. silicone in my FIBAE 2 review. I find that getting a great impression - and thus a great mould for the shell - is more important than the material the IEM's made from. This is because silicone doesn't have as much give as I thought it would, especially at the start. My FIBAE 2's came in a bit dense and tight. But, after some use, they eventually became softer and more comfortable. The grip/friction that silicone has as a material allows the shell to stick more effectively to the skin. As a result, seals hardly ever break when your chewing or talking, and the shells don't slide around in the ear when you flex your ears. There's also a stronger feeling of seamlessness between the shells and the skin; it's easier to feel like the IEM and the canal are one singular mass. Thus, it's easier to get the "I-forgot-I-was-wearing-IEMs" feeling.

Sound-wise, I think silicone or silicone-filled IEMs tend to have this laid-back organicity. It's a darker and more close-knit sound, but detail retrieval is more apparent because there's a larger contrast between the black background of the IEM and the sounds coming through. It could also be due to a lack of distortion, but my own impressions are too vague for me to be sure. It's honestly very hard to explain - and it could very well have been tuned this way by Piotr - but that's as best as I can describe it. The FIBAE 3 will be my very first hollow acrylic IEM from Custom Art, so that should yield a different experience.

Well if I ever get the chance to try more of your great monitors down the line, I'll leave the design up to you guys as you know what you're doing!

Very nice...I am thinking one day I will get an email with the chef's surprise...since I asked Piotr to come up with the design. I gave him a total creative control to come up with anything he wants...now just hoping its not rainbow colored with unicorns.

I like to have some semblance of control over what ends up being the final design. @piotrus-g can get a little... "wild" sometimes.
