@Niyologist
You should ask ljokerl how well the Phonak ear guides work together with the CC51 before you buy them. The CC51 are simply not made to be worn over the ear. Maybe the ear guides can stabilize them in your ear, because without any ear guide when worn over the ear -they simply don't attach to the outer ear, giving them a kinda loose fit.
 
I've tried to boost the lowest band of Fuze's custom EQ and the maximum that seemed viable (for me) is +4. Going beyond that made the sound a bit mushy. But the +4 still don't make them a "bass monster". I haven't tried it in rockbox yet, but you don't seem to be using RB...

Welp, the AKG K3003 (caution: audio in link) is apparently nearing release. Better start saving up now.

Unless the AKG sucks.  Is it April 1st again?  I do believe that housing appears to Unicorn horn.  Yes....yes it does.

say joker
though i already own the yuin pk1 (perfect fit and comfort)
i can get the yuin ok1 for about 90 euro + 12 euro shipping. is it a good deal? i'd only use them as an earbud, the iem mode sure wont be, with no isolation and comfort

I'm not sure how they differ from the PK1 as I've never heard the latter but I did think the OK1 sounded pretty damn good when I had it, if you're into balanced and refined.

then, is there any iem that can match them with the price i mentioned 90-100 euro (i think thats about $125-145)
btw, do the ok1 sound like a full-size can as the pk1 are known as?

Joker, are you going to get the new AKG's? If you do, you should do a comparison between them and the FAD SS.

Still awaiting for my CC51. I'll compare my review with Joker's review next week. The pre-burn-in and 50 hour burn-in will be posted, along with the specs and analysis of build, comfort and isolation.
