I been loosely following these buds and they come out on September 12th and are only $115 after shipping and wondering will these be any good? ( Anybody with past experience with a-Jays past earbuds could talk about SQ?)

Still waiting reviews myself. I need to replace my SOL Republic buds that I gave to my Fiancée. They are about the same price as those SOL's, so I expect similar results.

They are still pretty new on the market. Reviews will start appearing over the next months, it takes some time.

I have them.   Short answer: comfortable. A tad bass heavy, but not dark or chesty - midrange may be a tad recessed, and there is some loss of detail, but nothing alarming, and they are still a pleasant listen.  Sounds nothing like the previous a-jays models, which is a good thing - the 4 were absolutely terrible in every way except comfort.
 
If forced to choose, I'd still pick my RE-400's over them, though.

If I can get these for $20, will they be worth it ? Anything better within $20 ?

Seriously? You've necro'd 4yr old thread lol..

Go get it for $20 of course. But I'll go with newer stuffs.

Decided against these. Looks like cable noise is too high. This actually matches up with a previous experience. I had Cowon EM1 which had the same heavy flat cable like these, and the cable noise was just not bearable.

Now looking at RHA - MA350
