Looks hideous, but I guess it's the sound that counts.

The Moderna series looks much better to me, from the pics on the site. If it's real carbon fiber, I would genuinely be slightly interested.

Just got the January Stereophile and it has a review of the Phiaton MS 400. Overall, it sounds very positive. Very interested now in the Phiaton!

The power of a review at work.

Actually MarkL reviewed them before and he thought they sounded pretty good.

MarkL reviewed the MS 500, which I just bought off him. I'll try to put up some impressions soon.

I'm bi. I like to have silver riding on top of copper guy.

These are showing up at the UCI bookstore. Real carbon fiber. Not sure if its real croc skin for the higher series. The bookstore would try to sell these to the skullcandy lovin kids lol
