Wickers headphones are slowly agonizing, I look at custom monitors, but the toad is choking. I would like to know the opinion of colleagues - is it worth it, what pitfalls, etc.?

There are no pitfalls. Only the price. But this is the highest level. There is nothing cooler, only they differ from each other. And by the way, the difference in sound will be terrifyingly powerful. The viks have very weak speakers, and everything sounds like from the next room.

it's worth it, of course. You will receive custom-made ears.
Honestly, wiki sucks damn. Like headphones, and just like noise. I myself have them, lying in the corner.

I myself use 1964ears (which are the same 64audio). Good ears, Donati and Rihanna use them, and a lot of people, look for yourself on the site. They are expensive because of their innovative and exclusive Adel membrane, which dampens the in-ear pressure, and thus the headphones do not injure the ears even at high volume. There are models with a different number of drivers, from 1 to 12. I myself can no longer imagine concert work or studio work without them, and it's just nice to listen to music in them, even to bring them together (I often do this on airplanes).
64audio is an American office founded, if I'm not mistaken, by an emigrant Ukrainian. They have an office in Moscow -they can take your casts there. Then they are transported to the USA, where they are processed by professionals, creating a 3d impression of your ear on their basis, after which your ears are sent to the database and your ears are printed on a 3D printer, which gives just the perfect fit in the ear. It also allows you not to make new casts if suddenly your monitors are damaged and you need to make new ones.I know so much about them, since I am their endorser myself and I have already had problems with a split earphone (the bassist sat down at the bar to play and did not notice the monitors on the volume). You can also order custom overlays (pictures) for each of the monitors and choose absolutely any color.Of our 64audio is used by guys like Leningrad, Grigory Leps and Animal Jazz (and many more people).I have 6 drivers myself, and these are my best customizations of all that I had. And before them I had Shure, Acusta and Topears. The last two are our domestic ones entirely, but made using less advanced technologies, as a result of which I experienced inconveniences with their landing (sound leaked from outside due to loose fit) and all sorts of little things. But in general, they were still better than any other non-armature headphones, including large closed ones (just that story with the bass player and split monitors-it was in the studio, and when instead of the broken ones I was put on ordinary closed AKG, I just couldn't play-the difference in sound and inconvenience from the latter was so strong, even the recording had to be postponed until the next day I came with my Topirs, a spare from the old days, because you can't sell old ear monitors to anyone, they are strictly individual).
There is also Demonic Audio, they were created by our colleague, a drummer who worked in Acoustic, but quarreled with everyone and began to do his own thing. He makes good unobtrusive monitors with a couple of guys. Of the firm's, there are also Ultimate Ears- legendary monitors that are obscenely expensive and JHAudio-founded again by the founder. Ultimate Audio is also good and expensive. There are also Shure and Westone, but they do not make customizations. In general, each manufacturer of microphones and audio systems has its own ear monitors-but most often they are just for show.
