Hi Everyone,
I was all set on Sleek Audio SA6 and was about to buy. The biggest reason was going to be the W-1 wireless capability. Unfortunately, I read alot of negative comments regarding the build quality of these headphones. They changed the cable in 2009; however, it looks like the build quality problems still persists (see Head-fi Sleek Audio page). I heard that the Customer Service of SA is excellent and they give you a replacement should you have any problems. I really don't want to mess with all this so decided that I wait for a future SA product for wireless.
Now, I have a new challenge. I'm trying to find an IEM for budget around 400-500. This could either be just IEM or IEM amp combination (for combination i could probably push to 600ish).
I listen to Jazz (Chick Corea, Mavishnu Orchestra, Dave Brubeck etc.) as well as Hard/Psychedelic Rock (Pink Floyd, LedZep, etc.) , Alternative (Radiohead, Pearl Jam etc.) and Progressive Metal (Nightwish, Opeth, etc.)
I'm very new in this area and this will be my very first IEM. My previous headsets are Sennheiser PX-100, Bose QC2 (just for flights hehe), Sony MDR EX71.
I would very much appreciate your help on this!!
