The AAW W500 has had 300 hours of burn in time.
The first time I had AAW W500 Armorph version with adjustable Bass Knob and then last month i had AAW W500 without Bass Adjustment.
Both Sound Quality are the same , the difference on the Armorph version is the bass can be adjusted.
After I burned in the Advanced AcousticWerkes W500 for about 300 hours I begun to write the review for the AAW W500 review unit.

Conclusion:
What is the plus points of the AAW W500 is that it is a natural and analog sounding IEM, rich in micro details and has strong bass from its dynamic drivers.
I can use for traveling oversea for more than. 3 hours never get fatigue.
Because of Hybrid IEMs , the Bass from dynamic drivers always as strong point again BA Drivers
So far AAW W500 is one from my Favorite IEMs besides my Fit Ear MH 335 DW Studio Reference and my Fit Ear MH 334 for daily use inside the car during traffic jam in Jakarta.
AAW W500 is highly recommended as universal or custom IEMs.
