After listening to the CKS1100 for a few hours, the in-ear monitors almost sound as Jant described it. With the proper fit, acoustic instruments do sound weighty, clear, but most importantly, contain the bite necessary to sound natural. The ath-cks1100's timbre quality is fantastic. Instruments can be differentiated without a problem. Male and female vocals in music almost never compete against each other. Subbass quantities do match with the mid and upper midd bass quantities. I expected a profuse amount of bass levels when I bought this in-ear, but instead, I hear enough bass to sound rich without overwhelming the mids and highs. It still has enough bass to leave you satisfied as it provides the necessary elements for PRAT to occur. 
 
Treble is phenomenal, it contains a bit more weight to it than the ckr9s and has a bit more presence than the ckr9s. They're never bright though, which is something I kind of anticipated based on jant's description. As jant already stated, the stage is indeed wider, a lot more improved in width with height. The depth is somewhat disappointing at the moment, so I hope I hear the improvements that jant stated.
 
Drums sound amazingly real. Vocals have emotion to them, the instrument separation is also pretty high.
