Uh-oh! That reminds me of Trinity Audio. What is inside is not what was described!

Join the (Geek) club ! - metal housing is the way forward.I am definitely more interested in the GK100 when they come out soon, which has all metal housing?! You're kidding me?...It's about time!
Several details I do worry about on the upcoming GK100:
1) QC issues with the housing.
2) Quality of detachable cable.
3) PRICE!
So, if all three above check, "clear"?...Then I'll be sold!
In the meantime, I am very satisfied with the GK12's audio sound compared to the GK10. The 12 driver configuration works wonders and really fills in all the areas the GK10 did good, but wasn't the best at, which was better sub-bass extension, less mid-bass, cleaner MID's, while treble extension takes it up a notch without sounding harsh or sibilant and is well worth the cost! And, even though the cables are not detachable they feel heavy-duty and no where shows signs of being cheap.
Below are some PIC's of the drivers inside the GK12 unit...
Now, if you notice the non-detachable cables from the GK12 and the detachable ones that came with the GK10, there's not much of a difference in looks and quality. For the cheaper price of the GK12, they were well-worth my pocket change!
PS. One more note, the GK12 gives me a better fit than the GK10, IMHO.

Is GK100 official or still just hopeful?Join the (Geek) club ! - metal housing is the way forward.
i get only 2 answrs from Geek Wold stuff, and still no get answrs about stop selling GK10still just hopeful
strange... GK10 in your case more basses(more deep) ? do you have a driver flex In GK80? Penon shoud send me a new "euro 28" of GK80 version after they get a pair from Geek Wold.my set arrived yesterday, listening and burning in with the same hardware & software used with gk10.
as i expected, no quality issues at all, i can only imagine the amount of effort geek wold has put into that aspect after the problems they had with the gk10. i'm curious about the issue with @Mr.HiAudio unit, but for me everything is perfect.
soundstage width & depth and instrument separation have noticeably improved over gk10
mids and vocals are more forward and treble timbre and tonality are more natural on gk80
bass is there, but the wonderful fullness and thickness of the gk10's sound is not, obviously the dd and piezos need more time to settle but this is clearly the direction geek wold has choosen for the gk80, let's hear what the final overall equilibium will be, absolutely too early to say more.
as a very prelimiary observation i'm experiencing unexpected responses to v4a filtering, gk10 settings are completely wrong with gk80 and trying to improve bass frequency seems to lead to a less bassy sound... gotta check that out much better.
after another night of burn-in i am getting a very spacious yet mid-centric sound, bass is definetly coming but is still quite recessed, loose and uncontrolled, i am very confident that this will change for the better as burn-in proceeds.strange... GK10 in your case more basses(more deep) ? do you have a driver flex In GK80? Penon shoud send me a new "euro 28" of GK80 version after they get a pair from Geek Wold.
i dont know what version i have but a DD not a graphene. i think and BA cheaper too.
this is when you insert an earpiece into your ear and a click is made - this is a "driver flex" with sound like a "click" .what is a driver flex?
no driver flex on my unit, hope your case will be solved soon.this is when you insert an earpiece into your ear and a click is made - this is a "driver flex" with sound like a "click" .
i dont think so that a burn-in will increase a bass :/
