Along with the Finals, W4, 535se and the MA's, there looks to be a new wave of contenders.


 

Sony's are cheaper, too bad that there are not too many specs,  the 4 driver XBA-4 model only cost 500 SGD(via Sony Singapore). Really wondering how does this compare with the other top-tier offerings now since it is pretty expensive for a 3 driver BA. That being said how much did your MDR-CD900STs cost? I would like to pick those up sometime.

fyi, if you don't have a friend in Japan, you can always order anything Japan via the White Rabbit Express proxy buying service:

Read the instruction carefully. the Comply Foam is T500 I think. And it's also fit with T/Tx400

Any word on how the CK100Pro compares to the CKW1000ANV?

post #21 of 90

Someone can compare these to the PFE232?

I want these so bad. CK100 with less forward upper mids sounds perfect

Wow - quite a review, and I only looked at the images !  ;)

 

Having written exactly one review for Head-Fi, I appreciate how much work must have gone into this - I swore that I would never put myself through that sort of pain again, but I salute you for your efforts.

Reminds me of the FX700 response, but not as v-shaped. Sonove also measured the impedance change, and they can really change a lot depending on source. The impedance change does seem to complement the response pretty well, so maybe adding impedance may be a good thing here.

Hey Haonan, I hadn't been active for a while and only recently started posting a little.

 

Anyway, I've just come across your review - EXCELLENT job! Very thorough & informative.

Hmm, didn't sound quite like the FX700 to me, but did sound like a ER4 with some bass boost. Maybe I gravitate naturally to that midrange/lower treble region when I listen to things...

If I could write reviews like this... Awesome photos, by the way.

 

Could you go more into depth about the EX1000 vs. the ck100pro? Pretty please?

+1

Very interested to see which one you think suits  more for  classical/soundtracks music. I have MDR EX800ST and want to upgrade to EX1000. Very nice review by the way!    Thanks
