This is the highest model currently available and I was wondering if anyone has tried or is willing to take a shot at them? Certainly looks great, focus on bass and has cloth cables. I remember someone hear reviewing the lower end models but has anyone tried these?
Price is $139.99 in Canada

I just picked up a pair of these on sale at Future Shop for $39.At this price I consider them a steal.
 
Out of the box, they are very bass heavy and have a bit of sibilance. Also a noticeably flat soundstage. I will break them in for a couple of days and see if there is any improvement. They do sound pretty good out of the box, and are quite sweet sounding and accurate freq response curve at lower volumes. This is a welcome change to BA type IEMs that have to be turned up for them to sound good.
 
They are very comfortable to wear and are quite nice to hold and look at. The in-line remote is one of the better ones, very sturdy feeling and nice positive clicks on the buttons.
 
I will report back in a week or two with my impressions.
