A couple of months ago (six months, a year?) I found on the web an interesting site of someone planning to make a pair of IEMs that could be tuned using different sizes of tubes in the housing. I followed it a while, but lost interest after I bought my PK1s (and nothing happened on the site).
Lately I have been looking for a more portable setup than my present "luggable" combo of X5 and Headroom Micro.
Since I want it really portable I don't intend to use an amp, which rules out the use of my PK1 (I hoped they would do ok with the Cowon D2, but I doubt it after the reactions I got when I suggested it).
This meant I was in the market for IEMs again.
On my search I stumbled on the Sleek again (saw the entry in Jude's blog) and checked them out.
On the site it said: preorder, shipping 3rd quarter of 2007.
So I mailed them and the reply was that they are at the CES right now and start shipping coming tuesday.
I am a sucker for new innovative ideas (and a nice preorder bargain that lasts till next week) so I preordered them right away.
Here is a
link to their site.
I think these will be the first IEMs that can be compared to themselves!
Anybody else interested in these?
Maybe even had a listen to a prototype?
You think the fine tuning will work?
