Has a godlike pairing with the IM70 :s22:

$98 is a good price. Anywhere selling yet?

The price is really good as the best price in Amazon Japan is 8590yen, which work out to about S$110.

Looks like this time round for the IM range AT SEA is pricing their product very close to JP market price. :D

Ok lah. For a starter its not that bad.

But trust your ears more, try it with the various DAPs and decide for yourself.

You may or may not be able to tell a difference, but as you slowly learn and listen more, you're ears will slowly level up and you'll start craving for more.

Take your time in this hobby, that's what makes this hobby fun. :)

Anyone know how much stereo or e1 selling im02

Looks like everywhere is OOS in Singapore, even Stereo, which has a waiting list with stock only arriving in Apr.

My friend demoed it at Stereo and was poisoned by it. In the end he spent his money on HP-A4. :D

Your friend have good taste. :D Both the Fostex HP-A8 and HP-A3 (modded with NJR Muses02 opamps) shares quite a gd synergy with the pair of ATH-IM02's, I can confirm this myself as I have been using them to listen at hm occasionally ever since I acquired these last Dec. OT abit, I think u will love the Walkman ZX1 pairing with your CK100PROs, as I have been randomly picking up random user snippets from Mobile01 and some HK-based forums that the CK100PRO shares quite a gd synergy with the Walkman NWZ-ZX1 via just headphone out as well. Looking forward to trying them out with my own ZX1 as well.
:o

I myself is poisoned by IM03. CK100PRO is a technically very very good IEM but the IM03 sounds so musical from my Z1070. =:p

Worth getting ATH-HA21?

Very subjective question...

If pair well with your headphones, then worth getting.
If don't pair well with your headphones, then not worth getting.

If you listen already and like the sound, then worth getting.
If you listen already and don't like the sound, then not worth getting.

Audio Technica continues to surprise us with more product releases - CKR9 and CKR10!

Unlike other dual dynamic driver IEMs which have the drivers facing same direction, the 13mm drivers in CKR9 and R10 face each other instead. As for the housing, CKR10 uses titanium while CKR9 is aluminium alloy. However, the cables are non-removable.

Both will be available in Japan on 25th of April, Singapore should follow shortly after.
