^ you know what i had those exact thoughts for some time but when i ampped those WS99s and bass boost them on my e17 lordy lord!!!

Gets the cups shaking but the bass comes through so clean and tight. I never gets distorted. But having said that, my super modded HM5 S500s can even hang with those WS99s so................

 
True, the s500's (even unmodded) are awesome. But also true, the ws99's are just way more refined overall. Amp'em, crank'em, awesome addictive sound.

/ Nope not interested in any more TDKs cuz those MT300s still haunts me till this day.

 
And here I was this close to forgiving you and sending you the 1k's for reviewing. Oh well.

You should just say you'll do it, print out a FR graph, laminate it, then ship it instead of the CKS1000 since you'll be lending them to me wink wink.

Headphones and iems are so different that I can't see how one would make the other redundant. But, if you simply are using the CKN70's the majority of the time and are hardly ever using the S500's (and you don't think that you will), then I can understand you not wanting to keep them. And I can also understand the desire to sell something to fund something new - been there, done that! Fwiw, one reason that I am finally so happy is because with the ath trifecta that I have going on, each item sounds awesome yet sufficiently different! Each one can handle anything with aplomb, yet I love the AD900X's for rock, pop etc as well as for tv/movies, I love the WS99's for anything bass oriented (ie trance), and I love the CKS1000's for pretty much everything (but, having something jammed into my ears for too long simply starts driving me batty). So I love being able to switch between the three depending on my mood or depending on what I'm listening too. And the trifecta have definitely staunched my upgrade-itis quite a bit (thank goodness)! Sorry for the ramble

That's what point I want to reach, where I can say enough is enough and don't feel like upgrading anymore 

  I've just realised that I prefer IEM's over Headphones and imo for me I prefer the CKN70's sound sig over the S500's anyway so they ain't getting no time really.
 
I'm most interested in the CKS1000's over the FXZ200 and GR07 BE's. Anyone have these? Which is best out of the 3?

I can't comment no the 200's (I think only dsnuts has the 200's and the 1000's). I have the BE's though. They are great iems - very balanced - everything is right with them. And they don't stick out nearly as far as the 1000's lol! The thing though that separates the 1K's from the BE's is the soundstage. It really is like going from excellent 2D to excellent 3D. With the 1k's, you are immersed with a very wide and a very deep soundstage. The imaging is amazing. Instruments are left, right, close, far. You are completely immersed by the music. The bass is always perfectly there - deep and present but not overpowering, very much like with good headphones. The mids are neither forward or recessed - just perfect imo. And the treble is detailed and extended. A very engaging sound to me, the likes of which I haven't heard in an iem before (not to say there aren't others out there with the same characteristics).

I'll have you know ho hos are super ritzy when you're not situated in the Mexican troll ghettos.
 
And of course you'd have to consider the fact that master troll here bombarded his ears with 10,000 hrs of aggressive 120dB burn-in from those BEs, so listening impressions might not be the most accurate.

Inflation my friend, plenty and plenty of inflation. 
It's not really something to be awed by though - half the time I realize I might be off-kilter with my impressions. 
 
Oh, and BTW, recruiting for the thread in case anyone's interested - Warren is on board which makes my life 1000x easier.

You know w/rappers have their book of rhymes, Twinkie here has a book of iems. That's where he gets his super powers from.  Super Twinkie is an attention whore that's why and he knows it.

  One of these days i am gonna steal that holy book of his which he religiously worships daily and we'll see how godly he is without it.
 
.... book of iems come to my dirty lil' hands!!! hohos

I just had a thought..These drivers are bigger on the COR150. They look like 12.5mm or 13mm drivers.. Which got me thinking. Something smells kinda fishy here.

I know manufacturers like to reuse stuff they have a stock pile of.. These simply sound too good and also kinda sounds familiar to me. They don't sound like the CKS earphones.. These sound like CKM earphones. CKM500 to be exact. Similar in tonality. Hmmm.. Could these be CKM500s in disguise?

Now that the COR150 have been burned in, how do they sound against the CKM?
