Manual
Precious & Cast Metals are made using a complex process, hi-res 3D printing is used to
create a mold. Metal is then cast into the mold, the shield is extracted and finished by
meticulous hand polishing (plated metals add an additional two stages of plating)
Does the 60-Day Test Drive Guarantee apply to 3D printed shields?
Yes, it does. However, a 25% restocking fee applies to the purchase of 3D custom headphones. A
50% restocking fee applies to the purchase of a pair of 3D printed shield kits. If any issues arise or
you have questions on planning your 3D shield order, please contact our Six Star Support for
consultation.
What types of materials and colors do you offer for 3D printed shields?
We offer four classes of materials:
1. Fiber - 9 colors available
2. Steel - Matte Black, Stainless Steel, Polished Gold, Polished Bronze, Matte Bronze
3. Raw and Gold Plated Metals - Raw brass, Raw bronze, 14k Rose gold plated brass, 14k
gold plated brass and Rhodium plated brass
4. Precious Metals - Sterling Silver, 14k Solid Gold, 14k Solid Rose Gold and Platinum
Why is the "Upload your own logo" selection listed as "Beta"?
Sculpting a 3D model is a complex process. It takes time and thorough engineering validation before
the design can be done by our Italian sculptors. Therefore, we cannot guarantee that the shipping
time will be the same of a standard order nor that every logo can be embossed on your shields.
However, we will do our best to design your own 3D relic with the fastest turnaround possible. If any
issues arise during the process, our customs department will get in touch with you to find the best
solution.
What is the minimum thickness for 3D printing of designs and fonts?
Bolder logos with thicker lines are required for the best results. Thin or fine lines in the design and
areas of fonts may not print properly.
How high is the logo embossing and volume limits of 3D files?
Logos are embossed at a height limit of 1mm, and the maximum volume of the shield and logo/3D
file is 5.7 cubic centimeters for Over-Ear shields (2.9 cubic centimeters for On-Ear shields). If your
logo or 3D file exceeds this volume, our team will contact you. V-MODA original designs can reach
an embossing height of 2mm ("Studs" is the highest design).
