Yeah right, might explain why they're redoing mine a third time. Doesn't that guy sell ginsu knives on late night TV?

WOW, really?
I thought this 3D scanner and stuff would help a lot to achieve a better fitting...

I had mine made last year, before they used their new method. I had to get refits twice, and the left shell re-made before I got a very good fit with mine.

It`s not because Jude is saying, it`s because for me at least it makes sense.
And anyway he`s saying that because UE "asked" him to do it.

Saving changes in the computer for future molds vs. having to rely on the original. Remember UE caters more to musicians who may go through several of them.

Initial mold and refits are not uncommon. Depends on ears, quality of mold, experience of ear mold person.

Only if the original impressions are correct. You can't fix broken from the get go.

3D scanning is nothing new and has been used for impressions for a few years now. It was even in UE's own video tour from years ago. That's nothing special compared to other stuff happening.

I actually think they're trying to go decentralized, but I don't know for sure. There's also the new DSP-based PRM tuning box.

I actually found Jude's video very good and quite informative, even for someone, like me, who thinks they know a thing or two about customs.
