Could someone explain the liquid crystal polymer that is used in these iems?
 
It sounds like a very cool material.

The MDR-Z1000 looks interesting, too. I don't know if I'd buy them blind, but am interested. I like several Sony models and maybe they've put out another good one.

ex300 ex 500 ex 700, an ex1000 was bound to happen! but holy cow, the pricetag!

The thing that makes me take a step back is the talk of the frequency range. I know my hearing stops somewhere around 17-18k. What use is it to go up to 30k if I cant hear it?

Over the ear this time... So expensive...

 

[airwax]

This thing looks awesome. yey

 

[2rooi123]

id be blown away if it could produce bass way down until 15-20 hz where you could literally feel it

Most expensive universals? Definitely interested in how these sound and if they're worth their pricetag

Pretty much all products are priced highly in Japan, when they hit the US they ll probably be priced quite a bit under $500
