New Custom IEM day - ACS Evolve

Having used various Sennheiser and Shure IEMs over the years (everything from the entry level up to the Shure SE846 pro super-duper pair), I decided it was time to get a custom moulded pair. After doing a lot of research, I went for the ACS Evolve set.

And oh boy, are they good.

The signal chain is my Axe FX 3 into my Sennheiser ewG4 IEM rack unit, with an input from the mixer console (minus guitars). Last week at rehearsal was the first time I have LOVED what I've been hearing via the IEMs. They need very very little EQ tweaking - I have a low cut roll off at 9k (6db) and high cut at 80Hz (6db) - and they are just incredibly comfortable.

Plus, the noise cancelling is superb - I could still hear the drums etc., but I never had to keep adjusting the seal of them.

For just under £500, I'm blown away by them. Plus, they come with a very handy cleaning case with re-usable desiccant gel pots!

Highly recommended.

Just been looking for a recent post about these as i’m about to take the plunge myself and ACS seem to have rebranded their entire range with new names. 

Yep, still gigging with them and enjoying them. I didn't get the ambient version; the standard evolves really do block out pretty much everything though, so bear that in mind.
