LiveWires T1 Custom
IEMs
LiveWires
is a new company which only produces custom in-ear-monitors. Their
current model is dubbed T1 and features two balanced armatures.
Since the LiveWires T1 are custom in-ears, each pair of earphones
look unique and are custom fitted to fit in your ear.
. . . What sets the LiveWires in-ear-monitors apart from the competition
is the price. Even though they are not exactly cheap they cost way
less that the rivals. The going price for a standard pair of LiveWires
today is $249 plus the cost of your ear molds.

Review: LiveWires
in-ear headphones
I am very
picky about what I put on or in my ears, not because of sound, but
because of fit. I’ve tried a number of pairs of earbuds, over
the ear headphones, and Bluetooth headsets, and many of them become
uncomfortable after as little as a half-hour of use. When I met
CEO John Diles of EarPeace Technologies at Macworld Conference &
Expo, I had to try out his product, because they are custom made
for your ears. You can order the earphones through the LiveWires
web site.

LiveWires Custom
Fit In-Ear Earphones
Open
a box of any off-the-shelf earphones and you'll find a handful of
replaceable ear fittings, in all manner of shapes, sizes, and materials.
It seems ridiculous that the human ear can be so puzzling, but ears
truly are as unique and varied as fingerprints. For those with hard-to-fit
ears, getting custom-molded earphones would seem like a reasonable
answer to this dilemma, but even a modest pair from Westone or UltimateEars
will set you back about $400. Like a beacon of sanity, a California-based
upstart called EarPeace Technologies is making high-end custom earphones
an affordable proposition, pricing its LiveWires custom-fit earphones
at a relatively astonishing $249.

Short Review of
the Livewires + Short comparison with the UM2
Here's
just a simple review of the Livewires that I collected from Jaben
last Friday. Thus far, it has gone through about 20 hours of music
(recorded) and about 6 hours of stage monitoring use (live). Hope
it helps some of you with your decision.
Premise
Some
background here, I have listed below, the IEMS that I have owned
and used the following both for personal audio listening and for
stage monitoring for the past 5 years. I have also included brief
thoughts about each, so as to facilitate the brief comparison later.

- Rockstar Quality, Garage Band Price
Earpeace
Technologies is the newest entry into the custom earphone market;
known world-wide for their hand-held
audiological screening tool, Earpeace quietly introduced their
LiveWires product at MacWorld 2007, and many recording engineers
and musicians in attendance took note.
Earpeace's
goal was quality on a budget: a professional quality, dual-driver
custom-fitted earphone . . . And the product doesn't disappoint
in the least -- Earpeace's goal of a quality product at an accessible
price was met -- and exceeded -- with the LiveWires earphones.
