This is the description of DM8 from Penon, where is the 8th BA? or am I missing something?

Last I saw when I saw the numbers the DM8 was using the Sonion dual woofer so that would be 2. But last I saw it was four duals for the set up. 2 Sonion for the bass and the mid drivers and the 2 dual Knowles for the treble(TWFK) and high treble(SWFK).

Guess they went RAF and a Sonion combined for mids?

Ebay. Some good deals for them on there. I got mine for a steal due to a low ball offer being accepted. Microdriver than provides a balanced and musical approach. Excellent stage and good detail retrieval, but it's truly a musical affair with these. Not technical affair.

Sorry about this, thank you for pointing out the error, we have revised it ,the low frequency is composite driver , it should be 2 X Sonion.

After running in the CST by shuffling my music library for the better part of 18 hours and swapping the stock Starline tips for Sony Hybrids, the CCA CST have evened out somewhat and are now less dry and thin-sounding than they were out of the box. While by no means the last word in refinement, my dinner last night cost more than these. I think these would make excellent holiday gifts for friends and family members who have up to this point only known the sound of crummy Apple buds or Samsung fauxKG specials, since they will fit any ear and are worn cable down, which is what most people are used to. There's nothing really wrong with them for the price, the wood is a nice touch, and the KZ signature should work for them.
