If you thought your Beats By Dre were expensive, you may have to get loan or second job just to get these customized earbuds.

UE is known for high-end custom earbuds, and the series includes models for as much as $1,350. But the new Personal Reference Monitors make a big price jump, going for $1,999. Here’s how Logitech describes them:
Engineered to your exact needs for fit, look and sound, the Ultimate Ears Personal Reference Monitors were created to deliver an experience as personal as your passion for music. The process begins with our exclusive Personal Reference Tuning Box, which allows you to precisely adjust the sound signature of the monitors based on your listening preferences. The Personal Reference Tuning Box captures your adjustments to the mix of highs, mids and lows, which Ultimate Ears engineers then use to craft Personal Reference Monitors to your very own sound signature based on those exact settings.

If you swear by custom earbuds, are these a worthy upgrade? And if you don’t, do these tempt you to make the leap?
