You must not be in America for a total price of $63. Shipping alone is $56 for me, ramping it up to $110.

Dude, here is the US chart for the IM-50...

FedEx International Priority	1700 yen​	5676 yen​	7376 yen(US$ 70.07)​
Express Mail Service (EMS)	1200 yen​	5676 yen​	6876 yen(US$ 65.32)​
Registered Air Mail	1160 yen​	5676 yen​	6836 yen(US$ 64.94)​
Air Mail	750 yen​	5676 yen​	6426 yen(US$ 61.04)​
SAL	500 yen​	5676 yen​	6176 yen(US$ 58.67)​
Registered SAL	910 yen​	5676 yen​	6586 yen(US$ 62.56)​

 
The most expensive is under $17(1700 Yen = $16.30) + 5676( the IM50) = 7376 Yen or $70.07
EMS is good enough so less than $12 unless you need it ASAP.

Why in the hell does it list $ prices if they're wrong? I am confuse.

Edit: HOLY CRAP I GET IT NOW. THATS TOTAL AT THE END THERE. Ok, that makes sense.

Now you're thinking with portals.

Please read the post above. Yes, I have heard the GR07MK2, and I owned the GR07 for over a year back in the day. As a complement to the GR07, yes, definitely, you would not be disappointed. As I mention in my impressions, the enhanced bass is mostly concentrated in the sub-bass. Mid-bass is rather tame, so that "slam" that most people register as a bassline is not actually super strong. People who know me know that I don't go for bassy earphones. My principal IEM is the UERM, which is a nice approximation of subjective flat with very, very mild lift in the low and high end. I tend not to go for earphones that have more than +4.5 dB of bass over diffuse-field flat (think Etymotic ER4). The IM50 is an exception. It's very articulate in the bass, and doesn't overwhelm you with bass.
 
The SS01 is more mid-bassy, and more upper-midrange focused. It's more of the classic Audio-Technica sound. ATH seems to have gone for a different sound this time around. The SS01, as I mention in the post above, has more detail, but the IM50 feels more open and relaxed, which I enjoy. The SS01 is for having energetic fun, while the IM50 is for R&R on vacation. Hope that helps.

Thanks a lot! That is very detailed quick impressions. I think you have sold me on this, as I have always wanted some Audio Technica IEMs. That is a very nice price you got too, hopefully the official MSRP in Hong Kong won't be too high when they come out. I will probably wait about a month and see if I should ask my friend in Japan to get them for me.

If you live in HK, I'm pretty sure the price of Audio-Technica items is quite reasonable. It shouldn't come out to more than 460 HKD or so. It'll likely be around 450 HKD or lower, I bet. Most of the specialty shops there will also have demo units as well, so I wouldn't worry about having to pull the trigger without hearing/wearing it.

I'd discard Fedex, i got a bogus (but still "legal") charge on the total, i got my IM70 for around US$150 total. I might go for the IM50 later, though i'm quite pleased with the IM70, but i did a tip roll (Swapped the original M size silicon tips, with the M Size tips from the CLR100), and the fit and the sound got a lot better. So far, one of the best headphones i've ever owned, just under my GR04 Pro.

 

[SyCo87]

Lol damn you guys had me scared like they misquoted me or something. Glad the guy knows the deal then as far as shipping costs.

Was in Japan recently, and got the chance to demo the IM-50 and IM-70. While they do sound very nice for the price, I did feel that the IM-70 was a little bass-heavy for my tastes, and they are a lot larger than I expected them to be. Quite a shame, I would have gotten the 50s had they been smaller. Not a bad buy at all, reminds me of JVC's FXD series in terms of price-to-performance ratio. Would still reach for the FXD-80s over the 50s and 70s because they sound more balanced to my ears. 

 

[Lifted Andreas]

   
Yeah I know.
 
I guess I'd go for the IM02 still if I was buying them, right now they'd cost me £122 inc FedEx from CDJapan.
 
I've been looking at the Sony XBA-H1 too.

 
So, I decided to go for the new DUNU DN-1000 hybrid IEM instead of the IM02 and with the current discount on MP4Nation it actually cost me slightly less.

You won't be disappointed!

So I gather.
 
As I have been reading this seems to be the breakthrough IEM for Dunu, just like the H100 was for T-Peos, which I didint buy because of the reported sibilance.

How long does it usually take to get the order processed before they ship?

 

[buihia]
