Phiaton has some things up it's sleeve

I can't really say much, but they have more than just this coming soon :p  They have at least (that I'm aware of) one more headphone coming out (is it a headphone?).  None of them are wireless (so PS210BTNC is out of the picture)  :)  I do have access to more pictures, but I wouldn't want to ruin it for anyone.  If you search hard enough, you can find them though :)

 

Here's one that they posted publicly on their Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10150930908372817&set=a.10150931073382817.413454.62925307816&type=1&theater

 

Like I said, they do have at least one other coming out.

...Boring, it's very likely the same OEM driver used in the Radius, Brookstone, Powerbeats and Able-Planet.

Powerbeats are a single dynamic driver

Powerbeats are a dual-dynamic driver design. Same 2nd generation 15mm/7mm dual dynamic driver introduced by the DDM2. 

 

"Built-in subwoofer and midrange tweeter"

 

This shouldn't be surprising as the PS200 is an OEM as well, likely the others as well. The headphones are a different story though.

Really?! its not my day today is it :P haha

 

Oh wow so thats why i have bee told by a couple of members that the powerbeats were not to bad. In that case it is very likely and i apologise for my ignorance. However for what they manage with the driver i do not know as radius done the best with this OEM and the PS200 was never regarded as that good a TWFK compared to other cheaper versions.

LOL...  I was wondering why there was no word on any of this :p  I got a press release a little while ago about it too :p  Either way, both of them look really nice and promising.  Can't wait :)

They both do look gorgeous!

 

One question is, was Tinymans speculation of them using true same dual drive OEM as the mentioned earphones? Or are they not, interested either way but them headphones are so stunning!!!

Actually, I never made a speculation about the dual driver :p  I learned this one today :p  I didn't see that in the original press release so now I'm intrigued even more to try them :)

Hi Swimsonny!

 

Actually no. They will be using 14.3mm dynamic drivers similarly found in our other half in-ear earphones.

There are also some really cool features that help us tune these earphones called "Dual-Chamber" and "Multi-Tune AD".

Both of which have to do with controlling the airflow in a precise manner.

 

Side note...

 

Not a whole lot of people know but we actually make our own drivers in house! :)

 

Cheers!

Thanks for the info...  Could have used it a little while ago while I read over the PR release 5 times to see where it said dual driver :p  I knew I wasn't blind :)

That's good to hear. Good thing dual-chamber doesn't mean dual-driver.

 

PS200 doesn't use an in-house driver though.
