I still don't get a seal though. Looks like I'm back to complys.
Will any model work?
I use comply Tx-200 with wax protection.

cooper: if I had the dosh, I'd get KAEDE right now. I don't. Kuro isn't quite to the same level, but it offers a lot of the same sound. Love it. BTW, I'm shig, not Shig.
The Ocharaku phones are fantastic Cooper. They can be a little harsh if you're sensitive to treble though. I'd personally opt for the Kuro myself if Shig's right on about the performance/price ratio.
well i just now try to by it from price japan and they send me email that they can't finish the order b/c it is out of stock.
Try Dimitri at Musica Acoustics. I bought the last one he had, and that may have been the last one available, period. But if there's more to be had, he will get it for you.
I'll have to check to see what my serial number is. I got the last pair from Musica Acoustics. Not sure if he plans on getting any more. They must be in very short supply now.
I tell you what, the KAEDE has a magic other earphones don't. They remind me of the Final Audio Design gear in their unique, Japanese esotericism.
They are so smooth and reassuring, while being detailed. The sound comforting. With the wrong genres/mastering qualities, sure they can get harsh, but with the genres they excel at, they excel at - just like all these other Japanese products gushing out now.
Even with the Kuro on the horizon, I am still glad I snagged a pair of KAEDE. They were one of the first pair of earphones this dude made. They are handmade of maple. If this guy blows up, these will become unobtainable. Only collectors will have them. 200 made, right?
The bass on these is so dynamic, and plump, but never bloated or over bearing. The mid range is lush, with a liveliness in the upper mids that help the whole thing brighten up a tad. The highs are so smooth, sweet, and detailed. Listening to these is like sipping from a fresh cup of green tea early in the morning in the middle of a Japanese Garden. Cliche as it may be, I thinks that's what Ocharaku was going for, and he nailed it.
