Ultimate Ears 18 Earbuds Revealed [The Ultimate Ears 18 Pro Custom Monitors Cost An Ear-Shattering $1350]

Your iPod earbuds are no match for these “pro custom monitors” by Ultimate Ears.  The Ultimate Ears 18 Pro Custom Monitors are a custom-fitted, noise-reducing set of earbuds that can be yours for the cool price of $1,350– not including the cost of customization.

Ultimate Ears is a popular brand in the world of live music production.  Musicians and live audio engineers have used monitors like the Ultimate Ears 18 earbuds for years, as they reduce ambient noise while producing a clear, even signal response across the full spectrum of audible sound.

Each pair of Ultimate Ears 18 Pro Custom Monitors are form-fitted to the ear of the wearer.  Before purchasing a pair of Ultimate Ears earbuds, a customer meets with a certified audiologist who will create a mold of the customer’s ear.  Ultimate Ears then uses this mold to custom craft these earbuds to be a perfect, comfortable fit for the wearer.

What’s surprising about the Ultimate Ears 18 Pro Custom Monitors press release is that it doesn’t include the detailed specs an audio engineer or seasoned musician would look for.  No mention of the driver and body material, playback audio spectrum or max volume in dB.  I suppose the one numeric detail in the press release speaks for itself… the price of $1,350.
