Who's looking for earphones?

Hi

We are looking at running a deal this weekend on some audio technica earphones

Ckm55 to be exact,

Review usually compared to its predecessor ckm50 (which we ran a deal on last year)

The newer model will cost a little more, $39 delivered, Local stock with 1 year warranty.

Cheapest on eBay sell these for $55~

Our post on ozb have been a hit and miss in the last couple of times,

That's why I want to know what you peeps think before we bring it out (or not)

Keen to get everyone's thoughts

Cheers

  • Hi,

    Thanks for the reply guys,

    Subscribe to this thread and i will post an update when its listed

    Most likely this Sunday - because we've gone over our post count on OZB

    They are in transit from ATH as we speak - will be packing like crazy on monday

    Last time we ran a deal on CKM50 - it was sold out in half a day

  • Hi,

    This ain't fun, but i spent 3 hours, yes no shit - 3 hours to find reviews about this product, because there's rarely any.

    If you search CKM55 review, you will come across a lengthy review between CKM50 and CKM55

    If your like me and have nothing else better to do (no thats a lie, i rather play diablo 3) - Then go ahead

    Otherwise in summary:

    • CKM50 is better sound than CKM55
    • CKM55 is crap (according to one user)
    • CKM50 is dirt cheap and awesome quality

    However, there's actually NO or very little (sorry i can't keep track of all comments from over 68 pages) about CKM55 specifically, except for the one guy who hates it.

    Now lets be clear, i'm no pro about earphones so i can't comment (considering we are the seller here)

    But anyone who have more than one pair of earphone/headphone will know, its matter of preference.

    So judging by one person dislike for the CKM55 does not do justice to this product.

    Doing my rearch, i found a few more reviews in english - here are the specific links

    As you can see, there's rarely if any decent user or professional review of this product in english….


    Audio technica is a japanese brand, so its only fair if you try searching for Japanese reviews.

    To do so, you need to click "advance" search settings on google and then do your search there.

    I have done the honour to help out ozb'ers, here are the specifc links, just use chrome to translate -

    I think i've done a fair job in providing a open, unbiased review/link/feedback of this product. Now its up to you peeps to digest the information and decide if its worth your $39

    Let me know what you guys think after you've had the chance to review the above information
