I had to look up that Swanson fella he's dubious at best...


Cant wait :animal:
Currently have a Tall Font that I've been using daily...and want to do a comparison between them; keep which version I prefer...unless one goes to the guitar rig and the other to bass...

Bubble Font is a little bit muddier than the Tall font with a little tiny bit less gain!

Well nothing in or out for a few months. I am dying for a EHX Cathedral Reverb but I have to payback a tiny loan I took out to pay off my G3.

But my Dirge custom is on the cusp of being finished.

STOP BUYING SHIT TILL YOU GET YOUR MOLDS.

I lost the better fitting pair I had in the move, and I am so incredibly sad about it. They are worth every penny, they won't mess with you, just do it.

You say that as if it's an easy thing to do. :P

I need to just go get the molds done to really force the point.
1964 triple drivers are the plan.

Nice! I use the Westone UM-2s, I believe. Plenty of bass and loud enough to be incredibly painful if you get hit with feedback inside your head.

Westone's earplugs were pretty close to free when I got the rest of the stuff done too, which was a nice bonus.

how much reduction do you get with the custom molds? is it well enough beyond the -35 dB foam plugs available at Walgreens to make it worthwhile? i'm not talking about in-ear monitoring, in which i have no interest at all.

1964 offers -9, -15 and -25dB filters, but I would imagine you'd get better isolation and clarity from a mold w/ filter than from foam.

Exactly. Westone is the same, I have the 15s and the 25s. The thing is, I could stand in painfully loud concerts without it affecting me (except the time I saw Eccotone. Those dudes were LOUD.), and yet I can hear a whisper in my ear when someone wants to go outside.

I guess I need a pair of those. But I can't even remember what playing loud or going to a show is like. That's sad
