yeah Sf i am trying to confirm some stuff on those Clarus, at least they have a 15mm and 7mm driver, sort of fit like the KEF but possibly better. Tempted for a while and sorry to keep hassling you about them behind the scenes.
 Let's air these suckas out and see whats what. KEF 200/ Clarus showdown?  Wayne are you game?
 
One other thing i have been eyeing is the new Cresyn C740S dual chamber. It's newer and I can't find anywhere to get one.

BTW Cresyn is a huge OEM, even for AT apparently.
 
They own Phaiton also

  ^ Hmmm this seller got 4 negative ratings cuz he sold fake versions of the silver piston 1.0s, so i am not too sure if you can trust them on these golden 2.0 pistons based on that track record, but if someone has already got them from him and it's legit then it is more reassuring.....

Though he seems to also have this listing for $25 shipped with tracking with the "Best Offer" option. I would try to low ball him with $18 shipped using that option 1st. hoho

The $2 price raise KILLED THE DEAL!!! : P
 

 
I think there were two headfiers that ordered it from him. I could be wrong though, I hope it is reliable.
 
Those $2 could have killed anyone though! Think about it, there is a lot of fastfood in the streets, and with this new piston, the buyer could spend two dollars he saved for something good to eat while enjoying those phones. Macdonalds, for example, and that is a dangerous path to tread upon. I'm just doing wayne a favor!

I'm getting this near the summer. LOOK AT THAT PRICE!
 
Joker praises it....enough  said!
 
They're pretty....it's like the female version of the ath-re700s....
 
The ath-re700s look like a refined gentleman of the 70s, in modern age of course!

I'm always game Nick!

Btw, anyone heard of the cks1000's? Man, these things (with the h200 tips, and off of the c3/by combo) are rather orgasmic. Huge, airy 3d soundstage and headstage. Beautifull bass and kick ass drums. Forward and detailed highs. Very fun and engaging iems! :)

Not too subtle there Wayne.. lol
I have not forgotten the CKS1000, that is impossible. In fact every new thing I look at I think I should just "do/doooo/dew it" as SF likes to say
 
Did find them for ~150 shipped even that's approaching no brainer territory, but since i have none left I can't recognize that I guess.

Thanks for the very informative write up. It helps me appreciate my DUNU even more, as they rock my world and my music collection.


You're welcome! The Dunu will serve you well. I still love them.
