The P5 was, to me, a meh phone. Their Nautilus is absurdly awesome... Let's see how they can put that into an IEM now.

When I auditioned the P5 directly driven by a Marantz CD5003, first reaction: zomg how the sound is muffled! And I thought the K 240 (also driven by a CD5003) was bad enough.

It is involving after ten or fifteen minutes on your head. But to me, the initial impression gave my desire of getting this phone a head-shot.

The one thing we can know for sure is that these will be expensive!

The Nautilus costs around £48,800 more than the P5's. So it better sound absurdly awesome. In-fact, there is no reason at all for it to be £50k. I don't care if it is perfection, the mark up on the speakers must be shocking.

WTF! priceing at US$180 or £150, adding VAT to the US price that makes US$216, UK price equates to US$241.

Lets hope they are better than the P5's mediocre SQ and horrid fit.

Relative to the likes of KEF then yes however for the price the 600 and CM series are very good in terms of price/performance ratio.
