Inearz or ambient acoustics???

[Cdavis17]

Hey,
I am trying to decide (and not making much progress) weather to get inearz P450 or ambient acoustics am4 musicedition. I play bass, vocals and sometimes keys at my local church and I LOVE what we do, BUT my westone um pro 30's aren't sounding so great anymore. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated, especially if you have owned either of these brands or models. This will be my first set of customs and I am looking forward to the upgrade.

Thanks guys!

My experience with inearz could not have been better.

why, what's wrong with them? (i use the earlier UM3X versions myself and like them, but i've never used custom molds.)

those ambient acoustics are coming from the ukraine, very interesting.

The drivers have come loose inside and rattle around. The fault is my own, I put this thermo-plastoc mold stiff on them to help shape them to my ears... fixed the inconsistent fit problem I was having but the hair dryer required to soften the goo ALSO caused the drivers to come loose. the high drivers cut in and out as I move my head.
I was also thinking about have them reshelled.

Ya, ambient acoustics web site looks pretty good and I bet their product is great, but them being so far away is what makes me hesitate. Warrantee and customer service difficulties and such.
