Negative. "[N]ot to be confused with Volkswagen's futile attempt to break into the luxury sedan market."

The IEM things look like jet intakes. They are cool looking concepts anyway. I doubt we will see any soon.

No prices or any more info from phiaton. Their website hasn't changed any information for a long time. I wonder what's happening?

I signed up for their product news, reviews etc and I've yet to receive an email.

I may send an email to the parent company, Cresyn and ask about Phiaton.

irc, the japanese olympic swimmer Kosuke Kitajima was wearing the red leather ones as he was preparing for the 100 meter breaststroke a few days ago.

Yeah, I saw him wearing those red 'phones and I was trying to figure out what they were. All of the American swimmers have iBuds or Bose...

Phiaton MS400 (black and red) were also worn by Park Tae Hwan, the Korean swimmer.

They are looking to compete with Bose, Sennheiser, and Shure in the market.

They are due for release on September 1st.

Not sure that I like the hinges above the cups. They look a little too close to what you'd get on a $50 pair of DJ headphones. Not quite luxury imho.

they look sweet and here at headfi: anyone with a new hi end phone that no one else has will have sex appeal written all over him/her. if only i was queueing for the september release now. i would have sex written all over me. my dj1pro and victor fx500 and at ck10 are not enough
