Audio-Technica recently refreshed the entire lineup of Solid Bass products, but of particular interest is their new flagship IEM in the series, the ATH-CKS1100. It uses 'Dual Phase Push-Pull Drivers', which is the same technology used in the CKR9, CKR9LTD and CKR10 known for having great bass. Also, unlike the previous flagship CKS1000, it now has detachable cables.

- Dual-phase push-pull driver
face-to-face in two groups place the φ12.5mm driver. magnetic force in the two magnets to face the by increasing dramatically to play the heavy bass. In addition, two of the diaphragm to do the tuning the linear drive (before and after the linear motion) is to suppress the intermodulation to the limit, to reproduce the sound with no distortion to brilliance. In front of the diaphragm, it adopted a DLC (diamond-like carbon) coating to improve the high-frequency characteristics have a high hardness close to diamond. It has achieved a high-resolution reproduction of a wide range of bandwidth.- Dual airflow based venting system
to the driver characteristics best position according to the place two vent (air hole), dense spring of the air inside the housing is controlled. Stainless steel of the acoustic resistance material also be in the incorporation, and reduce the load on the diaphragm, while increasing the output of the bass efficiently, leading to a reproduced sound with excellent response.- It adopted the hard-line cutting solid aluminum enclosure.
Suppressing the resonance of the housing transmitted from the powerful drive of large diameter drivers, and reduce unnecessary sound distortion. It will play the mid-high range with growth.- CKS1100 dedicated 1.2m detachable cord.
Adopt A2DC connector and L / Rch independent stack card strands of audio-only design, we increase the resistance and maintenance of the noise.
