Yeah... that reminded me to put in two thing that I forgot to mention: the tips and the cable.... added

Thanks for such a great review! Also, thanks for the link to the other review, which I found reassuring of the quality/value of these IEMs. Mine should arrive on Wednesday and I can't wait!

FWIW, my logos are all perfectly intact so far and I use them nearly everyday and I just stuff them in my pocket on-the-go.

Great pictures and review, ClieOS! Thanks for sharing your experiences

Clie, if it's not too much trouble, could you post a pic of what they look like in your ears with the cord going down and over the ear? I'm very curious to know.

That's a very nice review! Thank you!

I might buy it until the Westone 3s come out.

ClieOS: What do you suggest for the iRiver Clix 2? Treble + & Bass +?

 

[KUNFUCHOPSTICKS]

Regular wearing, Upside down waring, over-the-ear wearing.

T+/B+ or T=/B+ both work well. I am using CustomEQ so generally I use T+/B+.

I wish mine were as intact as yours! On each side I have about 50% logo left... they're definitely wearing. I am now trying to not touch the black sides of the earphone body- instead I am trying to handle them on the metallic finish area. I don't fiddle with them anymore since I've settled for good on the bass + / treble + setup, and medium eartips work best.

Also, my cable separated at the Y junction. I just got the replacement in from Sleek today (unbelievably responsive and quick resolution from Sleek).... ah the beauty of a removable cable, it's a quick fix instead of having to scrap your whole set of earphones. Hopefully these are not ongoing issues, and my set is a rarity.

Thank you clie. One more question. Would you say that these are similar in size to the ety's (b/c I have larger ears than you)?

I'll say they are roughly the same size.

[Update] Using a small soldering iron, I burnt a small hole (1mm deep) on the cable head and painted the blue/red indicator color for L/R channel. Now it looks better than ever.

 

[Mush]

hows the wires? are they flexible or somewhat stiff?

 

[ClieOS]

Nothing special about the wire. They are about the same as your regular iBud wire.

One thing worth noting though, I notice that cable noise only comes from the Y junction up to the IEM itself. Noise from below tend not to be transmitted by the wire.

 

[dap_pad]

ClieOS, since you have both the Yuin PK1 and the Sleek Audio SA6, could you compare the two? I know they are different physical designs (earbud vs. IEMs), but I'm dying to know

Thanks!
