Good choice - glad you found the reviews handy

Well FOTM is one thing but seemingly impossible comparisons to top-tier earphones is what got to me. The Teknines aren't bad per se but next to the similarly-bassy NE-700X they sound vague and veiled.

Monster Beats are aggressively bassy - hard-edged, very powerful, and lacking dynamic range. The Teknines are softer and more 'rumbly' in nature but IMO that's no excuse for sounding cloudy and imprecise.

Wow thanks for the review of all the different IEMs joker! I was going to get the cx300s before but im going to get the MEElectronics Ai-M6 now :

Edit: originally thought this was just FOTM effect coupled with good looks and good holiday discount and commented to that effect. But then I read the latest posts on one of those threads and, well... I'm left wondering as well. I haven't heard the teknines, but, well, I think the Xears bullets are amazingly clear earphones... for 30$, shipping included, when not on special. For the price the teknines go for, I'd expect something close to the RE-0 with big bass and better build/style.

When I sent my Coppers in I had to pay for shipping to them and the return shipping was covered by Monster.
Also what are the teknines? Are they something like a bass monster earphone designed to sell like what the Monster Beats are?
