Has anyone used WAVS custom IEMs? (iPhone ear scanning)

A fellow local musician I saw perform last night had some. He said he replaced custom molded Alclairs with them, and they have a better seal. I guess they use the iPhone face recognition tech to scan your ear.

Anyone have any success/horror stories with these?

I have a pair that I got a few years ago and they work great. I also have a pair of 64 Audio customs so the WAVS are my backup, but they sound great and seal very well. No complaints.

No experience with the product, just pointing out that their "hybrid" model is only custom molded to your concha area and uses a regular universal tip to seal in your canal. They do also offer full custom molds.

Yeah, I wondered that. The iPhone scanning seems like it couldn't go deeper than that. Good to have some terminology to describe it though. Thanks for the info.

ive had them for about 4 years now since they were marketing in their early phase. Got the triple drivers hybrid mold for $350 at the time. I've played for church and now I more consistently do video editing. The conch seal mold is nice as it allows you to wear them for long periods of time without discomfort, as well as makes a nice seal. The ear tips do need replacing after a while, I only replaced them once, and the replacements were foam buds I found on amazon which work great. They are great and have no issues to this day. I can hear a separation of instruments, voices, etc when I play your average Spotify song or any professionally mixed track. Im sure there's better out there, but these are fantastic.
