Fantastic.

Am I the only member of this forum still rockin' one of these?  

I jumped on these when they were half price at Macmall, in part based on your review. Just wanted to say thanks. These are really fantastic sounding earphones. The mic is crisp and clear on these too! I bought the plain jane jet blacks ones and just ordered a set of camel now that they're...

Thanks! Just grabbed another pair. Love these earphones.

Actually, the Panys are good but not that good. There are better options available that I like more in that price range. For the $70 I paid for them on J&R blowout, they were just dandy.

I think they're over two bills now and for that price I'd rather shell out a bit more and get a pair of Westones.

Quote: I own the M9, M6, and had RE0s. The CKM50, to me, sounds better.   For someone's amping question, I use an old iBasso Viper at home and in the office, as a DAC, with my CKMs and they sound fantastic. Honestly, the cord is the only thing that bothers me and if I could do it...
