Impressions of the Ortofon e-Q7 versus the IE8, CK100, SE530, FX500 and X10 (plus CK10 discussion from post #120)
Feb 25, 2010 at 12:14 PM Post #586 of 882
It's been interesting following the posts relating to the CK10. The initial descriptions of its sound signature was of a neutral and balanced phone. It's now looking more like a trebly phone, just as the IE8 is a bassy phone, the SE530 is a mid-centric phone and the TF10 is a phone with recessed mids.

Who's fitting Shure's flanges onto the e-Q7, I believe rawrster et al. are talking about the CK10?

Yes. I agree. By the same token, some people also fail to recognise that saying they feel the CK10 bass is light is not a personal slur on anyone who doesn't feel the same way. If those people could accept that not everyone has to be salivating over the CK10 bass to enjoy them, then this thread would be a lot more useful. Stooping to insults and attacks over an opposing opinion... well, it's hard to take those posters seriously.

I happen to like my CK10 despite the lack of bass presence. Not all negatives have to wipe out the positives.

As for your comment about 'moving on'... good advice.

James:I tried the eq on my touch and the sound became very muffeled and the clarity that the ck10 is known for is gone.I am trying to write a proper review now and will post it here but the summary of the review can be taken in 2 words:Balanced and fatiguing.

FWIR iPod's EQ is like shxt...Using iPod EQ functions will cause sound distortion.

I am not sure if this was already mentioned somewhere before, but how's the bass and treble quantity on the CK10 compared to Triple.fi with the stock silicone tips? I just listened to the Triple.fi again today with the stock grey single flange silicone tips and it sounded boosted in the bass and treble.

I wrote a very very long review an indepth review to compare the ck10 and ie8 and fx500 but my stupid computer hung on me and everything Is erased.I am not sure I can write all this again but if anyone have a question regarding the ck10,feel free to ask me because what I wrote is very long and tiring to write again.

Man, that sucks. It's always discouraging when your computer crashes and wipes out something you've worked on for hours, especially when it's a thorough, lengthy IEM review! Perhaps you can work up a more manageable sized one still, I would like to read your impressions.

I think there's been enough (easy) talking already about someone that isnt able to reply anymore, isnt it a little cheapish to keep on adding on the subject given the circumstances? I thought it has been agreed by some people here that it would be wise to "move on", why not just do that, i personally am still interested in E-Q7 vs CK-10 vs MTP copper, one of which is gonna be my next purchase....
