I put the molds in the mail today. Ragart...there is nothing wrong with Ovaltine, unless you are little Ralphy with your brand new secret decoder ring. :) Doug i-bystander, according to their website, it takes about 3 weeks for them to ship the headphones once they receive your molds.

This is something I have wanted to do for some time. The ear impressions were a completely new experience for me, so I was just fascinated by the experience. The headphones cost $250, but that price can increase if you choose different cables or options. It also cost me $30 for the ear impressions, plus the cost of shipping. So, all told, just shy of $300. Which is a pretty good deal considering I have reviewed much more expensive headphones which were not custom made. I am excited to find out how the custom made headphones will compare to some of the other high end headphones I have tested. Doug Yeah, it has really been fascinating so far.

Looks like they run just short of $250. But they have some other really cool features beyond this custom stuff. @Peter - hit the link above. Looks like they run just short of $250.
