Ah! Didn't know that. I've always been a fan of Hybrids since I got the EX310SL, but never really bothered buying spares, figured might as well since I'm paying for shipping. :)

Those are the ones. They are mighty comfy and I end up using them half the time. The other half is sennheiser double-flange style.

They are really comfy, I use them on my Carbo Tenore sometimes.

Other time is reserved for the M6 bi- flanges.

Isolation and comfort are amazing.

Ohhhhhhh. You have my curiosity peaked. Those look interesting. I'm a comfort whore, I admit it. It's more important than sound to me (blasphemous, I know).

Anywhere I can get these in the good old USA?

I put sound first but comfort and looks a "very" close second. Even if they sound amazing, if the build looks shoddy, I flat out refuse to try them.

Unfortunately not, those tips are Sony's noise isolation tips that only come with certain models. As I said above, I got mine in the accessory pack from the EX350SL and they don't sell separately, apart from amazon.jp that is. Which is why I never bothere to get replacements till now.

Is there someone who's got both Tenore and RE-400?
It'll be interesting to know how they compare against each other...

So far the cables have been good. They are flat and not too microphonic. I now have about 7 sets of interchangeable cables. I'm finding the XWF600s "pleasant", warm, better than skullcandies, but not great. The CKM99s however are great! More sub and mid bass than the CKS99s, more detailed and oh so musical! I am truly surprised as I thought Cks99s were meant to be the Bassy phones?

Not great in what way?? Is the cable poping out of iems? Did you burn them in? So many question :)  I still belive for the price its good deal, can you compare XWF600 maybe to mh1c if you heard them or any other hyped iems from here to be the closest regarding sound? Pleasant and warm sounds good to me so I hope its upgrade to my mh1c.

i have the CKM 99s and they are fabulous for psytrance/psychedelic electronica
such as Peak Records (switzerland, Master Margherita) type mixes.  they onvey all
the energy, sound, and dimensional interaction of the music.  lacking in detail compared
for example to the ATH CKS500, and less sparkle, but more pure force and gusto.
my go to iem for electronic music.  Im wondering if the CKS1000 will have the detail
and the bass gusto???? or which phones could do detail, sparkle and gusto, the S2?
Any suggestions?  drbluenewmexico

Cable has been fine so far. I've been using other Xears with the same design for months with no issues.

I should have been clearer. The 600s are competent, and have a nice pleasant sound, just not a "great" sound. Comparison with MH1C is difficult because I hated the cable so much! They are too different to compare. I haven't much burn in on the 600s, so will do more when I get chance.

This is nice to hear because the cable kills me on mh1c too and I cant wait for 600s to arrive so I can put mh for sale if the sound is right. Well I am at peace again tnx

Do you have changeable cable with controls/mic maybe? Looking some for android and all I found was cables marked for iphone so my question is will these cables work with android phone and a link pls where did you bought them if you do have them?

I have 3 sets.of head phones with the same cable system, so interchangeable. The only cable with mic that I know of is on the Xears website. I'd make sure you like first as it is expensive at 26 euros. http://www.xears.com/zubehor
