Am I the only one who doesn't mind the cable? xD Before I bought them I was so worried about the cable and then I was like: I don't get it.

 
It's ok. I'm the only one who doesn't mind the MT300's apparently!

Welp i don't crazy hate it, it's alright if you know how to deal with it, but on those bad days it can literally drive you nuts. The really crappy thing about these MH1Cs is the stupid heavy big mic control. I mean c'mon was all that bulk really necessary???

so, i am like reading about some Somics.. but sweet lord jesus,  50 pages behind!  its Crazy!!!
Good thing is that i have saved a TON of money because of not reading this thread for 2 months


Lookie who's back for more. Forget about the Somics ricky boi, just get yourself some ATH lovin' and be done with it. And it looks like these ATH CKN 70s is a must have going by ghosts' hype. I think ghost just out-hyped Ds LMAO if that is even possible.

I hated it at first too but I actually like it now. It drapes and stays put when I have them down on my chest. I still hate the remote tho. It's still a pain in the @$$


I wonder if you can take the plastic off the remote so the cable will be lighter??? Or will that break the cable and not make the iem work properly, sorry about getting off topic with these MH1Cs. LoL
 
Carry on........................

How do the ckn70 compare to the Sony XBA-3 or XBA-30?

 
I found the CKN50s to be very good and fairly close to the XBA-30s. They only lacked the high-end resolution and refinement that you'd expect from a bigger price tag. The CKN70s will certainly close that gap and probably be on par with the Sonys. When I get my 70s I'll give an actual comparison.

Hmm... Nice!

Guess I'll have a choice to make in the coming month. Call it an ATH conundrum...

Either the CKN70 or the ES700. :S

These are my first Audio Technicas. First impressions: electronic music sounds FANTASTIC!

I wonder how they would compare to the Yamaha EPH-100s, as these are my favourite IEMs for Trance music at the moment.

Try your metal. Lol.

I am as I'm typing this post. The bass is awesome, it hits hard and fast. I'm hearing stuff that I haven't even heard in my S500s; I didn't know that was possible xD The guitars come through very strong. My only complaints are instrument separation and harshness. I only have those problems in metal, but I'm sure with burn in they will be solved. These have way more bass than I expected, and I'm definitely okay with it.

i dont think the ckn70 will have nearly as much bass, but probably better quality from what is being said.

I haven't heard the Yamahas, but these actually have a good amount of bass. I like my bass to be a little exaggerated and it satisfies me. They have more than you would expect.
