Thanks everyone for their replies.
I've emailed Phil and will see what he says.
Many thanks.

At the moment CE are in the throes of finalizing the new factory in the uk. It's been a long time coming but they hope to be up and running fairly soon now. Once that gets done I'm sure that the new website with up to date info will be online. As for the micros as of this time only the single will be available for the time being. To clarify I'd ordered mine that I posted quite some time ago and sent back for a refit. Had some time and the difference in getting it tweaked is surprising. Certainly doesn't sound like a single ba in there that's for sure. Seal holds so much better now. It's just that blasted strain relief from the right cable pressing against my ears that causes the problems now. However with the redesign that won't be a matter of concern when they are re released.
One interesting thing to note is that the BA5 has been taken off the CE site. Wonder what the implications of that are!
2 questions: What was the sound signature like? I was hoping it'd be flat, but I'm worried because it's a single driver that it will have no bass. Should I be concerned? Also, how much did you pay for it?
How does everyone feel about the straight jack on the linum cables? Has anyone ran into issues with its strain relief near the termination? How would you guys use your gear in pocket in order to safeguard against natural wear and tear on a straight jack because paying copious amounts of money for awesome phones and then being reduced to one side working because of what I believe poor strain relief is a big bummer. Fortunately I have came up with an awkward way of going around this with a rubberband and pulling it one direction to get both monitors working again but I also wonder if this will ruin my jack on my x3/ tomahawk amp. :/
I find the termination strong enough. I unplug gear often and never had issues, the only issue I have is with my ba4, left monitor I sometimes have to push the cable in the monitor to get sound
