random($foo) - gone fishin'

My last two pairs of Ultimate Buds were out of commission, and after being slightly tempted by the Shure SE530's, decided to splurge and after reading some reviews, ended up getting the Westone UM3X (over the Westone 3's mostly for greater sound isolation and the removable cable option).

25db noise reduction, memory foam comply tips (I'm a big believer in foam tips) w/ the option to upgrade custom molds, and 3-way drivers.

Just ripped 'em open so not too many comments yet. Fit is good - they have adjustable earloops, but works fine w/ my glasses. No cable microphonics and there's an adjuster to control separation. Initial listening - super clear, great noise isolation. Will have to let it break in and dig out my headphone amps to really comment on sound quality.

Bought from Earphone Solutions w/ 10% Summer Sale, paid for 2day Fedex and got it in 2 (ordered around 1PM) so pretty happy with that:

These appear to be available a bit cheaper online, but YMMV
