and just look at those CKS1000 

These frankein bolts. On a very interesting note. Recent audio trade show in Japan had AT showing all their new solid bass earphones. Guess what was at the same show showing their newness. JVC was there with their FXZ200. So the launch of these came and passed. The street price is now somewhere in the $230 range in Japan. Meaning out of the gate AT is being aggressive with pricing. The reason? People were showing much interest in the new FXZ200s. I would pass on these and go for JVCs newest. Now the CKS99s are interesting as those went from $160 to $115 or so in Japan.. Might be worth checking out when prices drop for them. AT is feeling the heat from JVC. Who knows they might have a great product but competition is good for everyone.

You are in for a nice surprise ericp. You would never guess this even after 5 hours of burn in. Lol.

That was pretty quick for your MH1C's! Must have been amazon or something (and not an ebay seller where I got mine from).

 

Oh, and it's nice that you're giving your FXD70's some love :)

They weren't available at amazon.ca, so I got them via ebay.ca. They will be here by Jan 2013 I'm sure. In the meantime, I will be able to read about all of you guys and gals who got yours within two days from amazon, and read about how much you are loving them, and my impatience will grow to exponential levels until I LOSE IT lol! So thanks!

 

Edit: actually, they were on amazon.ca, but the lowest price is $31.99, which is why I went the ebay.ca route. I'll probably start wishing that I spent the extra lol!

If you had spent the $32, choosing between it and the r1 would have been much easier because they will cost relatively the same.

This means you will be judging strictly based on sound instead of value due to price-performance ratio.

 

I guess you could pretend you spent $32?
Or check if the ebay one hasn't shipped and request a cancel from the seller?

Okay, I've haven't heard anything this incredible for under $50. Anything (and only four hours burn in on it)!! Call it the hype train and on listen to Dsnuts if you want, and just miss out. But the MH1C is no joke. Dsnuts (and really ClieOS was the first) hit the ball out of the park with this one! Timbre, sub-base, clarity, details (without being analytical ) is all there. I'm not going to say (yet) it pushes past the FXD80, but it's right there with the FXD70 (with more bass, but not a bass monster). A very refined sound that could easily be in the $200-$250 price range in sound quality. And unfortunately the head-fi snubs probably won't give this try like they refused to give the JVC FXD series a try.

I haven't been this excited about the sound of a cheapie since hearing the S500 headphone. Yes, that's how good this is. Kudos to Dsnuts with on-the-money first impressions. beerchug.gif
