To start off there is some sort of burn in period for these headphones. When I first got them they were ok but not stellar however, they were still better sounding than most others I have heard. Now that I have had them for a bit the sound is suprisingly good with most types of music and I would find it pretty hard to beat at this price point. The previous review claimed these were anemic and everyone is entitled to an opinion but they are far from anemic even with a flat eq and a good source. Good quality headphones shouldn't need enhancements to sound right and so far all my listening has been with no enhancements. I have listened to a lot of various types of music and these seem to perform very well. Hans Zimmer's music for instance sounds amazing with great detail, warm sounding strings, and very defined bass. I have tried some trance,drums and bass,jazz,frequency sweeps, and a lot more. Overall these are great headphones and when properly worn produce great sound all the way down to an eardrum shaking 20hz.

Wow, you have to listen to these earphones. I have owned many IEMs in the past including Shure, Sennheiser, Klipsh S4, and Bose, these are the best one I have owned. And the prices is great well (bought it for $60).
I strongly recommend you to check out the reviews at this site ([...] It has great reviews, discussions, and comparisons against many well known IEMs.
To put it in the perspective, the sound quality of these earphones are close to full size ATH-M50. I am not kidding. And if you don't know ATH-M50, then Google it. You will find lots of great reviews on ATH-M50.
As other reviewers mentioned, the placement of the microphone is not optimal. And if you are using the mic a lot, it may bother you as you would have to hold the mic close to your mouse while you speak. But on other hand, it is easier to see the button and volume control since it is NOT next to your chin. This make actually easy for me to use - since I don't talk on the phone a lot.
Despite the placement of the mic, because of the great sound quality and price (and I don't mind the location of the mic), I don't hesitate to give 5 stars on these earphones. And I recommend them to everyone and will buy it again.

Just got these today and they sound amaing. They have 4 differnt sized earbuds that you can switch on and off to fit in your ears. They fit perfectly and sound great. Only used them for a few hours so far so I can't speak for overall sound quality as I am working on burning them in now. However I do own these and the ATH M50S headphones. I love audio technica and love their products. These earbuds give you great sound quality similar to the M50s. After burn in I will update my review. Incredible price for earbuds with this quality. I have listen to Beats $200 earbuds. They are not even CLOSE to the sound quality of these. Save the $150 and get these. Your ears will thank you and so will your wallet.

I have a pair of Audio Technica QuietPoint headphones which I like a lot. So I thought the earbuds would be of comparable quality. Not so! The bass is missing almost altogether. I'm not one for over done bass but these earbuds miss out altogether on the low end frequencies.

The quality of these earbuds is great. Audio-technica makes solid products - however for earbuds designed for a smartphone I don't understand why the microphone is where it is. It's not going to pick up anything you're saying if you're just letting it hang - it's way too far down. Really disappointed and I wish they would've just copied Apple's design where it hangs off one of the sides of the earbuds, that way it would actually function as it should when used with a smartphone.
While the earbuds themselves are quality, I would not recommend purchasing them due to the bizarre design choices of the placement of the microphone part.

It broke down in only 3 months.. The connection of one headphone doesn't work. Its quality is even worse than the default earplug of iPhone.

The freq response was unacceptable, The highs were nice but they lacked aby warmth and the lows were recessed to the point my eq could not pull them up enough to give them a reasonably flat response. I bought these thinking they would outperform my Thinksound Rains, and they were able to reach higher before rolling off but below 2KHz the rains mop the floor with them. They did sound better than my MS-01's but I think the MS=01's sound terrible (im an audiophile and the ms's are very anemic and lack highs, imaging is nice but it takes alot of eq to get any warmth) I know this is going to sound sarcastic, but I can eq my 3yo's syba set to have more lows and be flatter and more fun to listen too than I could these...
As a professional in the audio field I am no stranger to the way things should sound, and given if a person was used to generic $5 chain store earbuds they would probably think these were nearly amazing, these do not perform on the price point they are selling for to me... Save some money and try the TS Rains...

These are built to be tossed around like $1 throwaways, and...still look brand new. Forget breakage, these are beastly.
The sound...with hundreds worth of audio equipment you'll hear why multi-hundred dollar earphones are better than these;
but with a stand-alone phone, they hold their own.
If you're an average consumer looking for something you wont have to think about replacing for a long time, get 'em!

These headphones are OK. the scroll knob for volume adjustment is annoying compared to the up or down clickers on most other earbuds. The sound is ok.

Mostly use for calls, sometimes for music.
Works well for calls in the car, in the office and outdoors.
Excellent ambient sound isolation.
Excellent incoming sound. Excellent outgoing sound, when microphone is raised towards the mouth.
Only problem I face is that the microphone hangs low, I have to raise it towards the mouth when speaking. I end up tying the cord to the top button of my shirt to keep the microphone close when speaking; then it works very well. Inclusion of a small clip in the package would have helped a lot. However with the microphone raised, the cord length from microphone to phone connector becomes short.
The shortcoming due to microphone placement and cord length prevents me from giving five stars.

I have no vested interested. Also not an audiophile obsessive but I am a picky listener with broad range of musical tastes from classical vocal and orchestral to jazz, funk, rock, folk. These are an amazing set of earbuds. Read about them on Headfi, I believe, when I spent some time researching a new set of buds). Truly, the sound is excellent. I have Etymotic h3 (also excellent sound but somewhat uncomfortable IEMs), low end Shures, Bose (just ok). I have used with and without portable Fio amp, which really is not needed with these buds. These are very comfortable and well designed. Cord is easy to unravel when it is coiled up, rarely if ever tangles, due to the material of cables. Occasionally they slide out but with a quick twist they're in place. No worse than any others in that respect. You will hear music in its full depth, all frequency ranges, and pick up what you may not have heard previously. You also become aware of the quality of the original recording and quality of file format. Would recommend for anyone who wants excellent sound fidelity. For the price these are an outstanding value, one of the best purchases I have made.

A quick intro, I'm keanex on Head-Fi I regularly review headphones and other audio gear. I'm here to give you a quick review on these.
Bass: The bass is well extended, very clean with no signs of distortion whether it's through my iPod, laptop, or O2+ODAC combo. The bass hits hard and is quick, but the mid-bass is a bit pushy, this may change with burn-in though.
Mids: The mids are intimate, clean and smooth. These are the most realistic mids I have come across in my endeavors for an IEM.
Highs: Well extended, no added sibilance, and balanced really well with the overall signature.
Instrument Separation/Soundstage is one of the best I've heard in an IEM. I feel as if I'm in a small club that is tuned to provide a clean sound. Instruments have room to breath even in the most complex parts of songs I've heard that even sound a tad confusing at time on my Audio Technica Ad2000.
I know I'm saying clean a lot, I can not stress how crystal clear the sound on these is. A lot of people praised the Fostex T50RP for their black background, well I think these may even be cleaner sounding.
The comfort isn't the best, the IEMs don't fit too comfortably in my right ear, but they IEMs stay in and form a good seal despite the semi-shallow insertion. The build quality is top notch, you can't ask for better at this price, again Audio Technica sets the bar for IEM quality.
So that's my quick review after 3 days of ownership and about 20 hours of listening. Yes, 20 hours. These IEMs have made me want to re-listen to every song I own over again, which is something next to my Meelectronics A161p and Audio Technica Ad2000. These are the headphone to beat under $100 and I'd be impressed if any company could build a driver as clean as this for their IEMs even at double the price. There's my gushing mini-review, these deserve every bit of praise they get.

As an owner of Audio Technica ATH-M50s, I suppose I had high expectations for these IEMs. They sound decent, but not nearly as good as my M50s and the previous IEMs that broke; the Brainwavz M3s which are around the same price.
As someone else mentioned the shortness of the cable is kind of annoying even though they do provide and extension, I've never been a believer of the effects of burning in headphones but perhaps with time those effects will show with these IEMs or more likely my ears will just get used to them.

Since the first iPod came out in 2001, I have been buying new headphones every several months to see what kind of improvements have been made. I have bought in-ear monitors at all price ranges, from custom-fit Sensophonics at $1000, to lowly 100 yen discount cheapies (I live in Tokyo). It has been fascinating to track the evolutionary improvements in sound that have become available due to improvements in technology. Now, here we are in July 2012, with the Audio-Technica CKM500 making a significant breakthrough in terms of price to performance. They sound great, and are much to the fun side of neutral. The sound, for me, is more satisfying than my older, but much more expensive Sensophonics XS, Sure Se530, Ultimate Ears TripleFi 10, JVC FX700, JVC FX500, Radius TWF11, and Etymotic ER-4P. In my book, CMK500 are the winners against all of these, and they sell for a fraction of the price. Quite an accomplishment! In fact, the only phones in my arsenal that I clearly prefer are the recently introduced Sennheiser IE 80, which are about five times more expensive. Sennheiser IE80 Headphone Even while walking around, the CKM500 make classical music and acoustic jazz sound good to me. The isolation from outside sound is far above average, and they are comfortable to wear, even for extended periods. The build quality is very good. The only weakness is that the cord is microphonic, meaning that anything that bumps against the cord will be transmitted up to the earpieces and you can hear it. Here is a suggestion to improve the fit, and thus the sound quality. Apply a little moisture to the rubber earpiece tips before insertion (tongue to finger to earpiece tip). I prefer the fit of standard, good-fitting IEMs with moistened earpieces even to custom fit earpieces. The CKM500 are available in five different colors. I think the blue ones sound best!

I have had this for about a week now and I am beginning to like it.
I use it predominantly as a spare mostly in the car - to work and back. I find the sound isolation is fairly good and while in the car I feel very comfortable and uninterrupted.
I listen to this on my Ipod Touch and I do have to use it together with my BBE Sonic pro app as the tone does require a little tweaking. I find that (un-EQ) the bass tends to be a bit in the forefront and vocals tend to drown.
But when I am able to fiddle the EQ to the right level the final sound comes out fairly good. What normally gives me problems is with the sound stage and the depth and I do need to spent time adjusting this (especially if I change music genre). It does work very well with guitar sounds and acoustics.
The other thing I find convenient is the inline mic. I used my Ipod to Skype all the time and its proving to be very convenient. I am told by my phone contacts that my talking tone and clarity on the other end is very pleasing.
Overall I do believe this to be a good buy and value for the price. (paid $70 for it)

A couple weeks back I purchased the sony xba-3IP and a couple weeks later one of the buds malfunctioned and I had to return it. I browsed head-fi looking for an alternative option and found these to be highly recommended. I had my doubts that these headphones could match the sound quality of the sony xbas due to the fact that they were less than half the price but I took a chance and ordered them anyway. I paid $76 for these headphones for rush shipping from Japan and I think it was worth every penny. The bass and treble are great, the soundstage range is fantastic, and everything sounds wonderful. I would definitely pick these over the sony xbas any day.
I think the only downside to these headphones is that they are very short. There is an extension that comes along with them but I don't really like using extensions. This is just a small complaint though, definitely not a deal breaker. I highly recommend these headphones to anybody. They are very comfortable, they sound great, and look great.

They look great and that's about it. I turned the volume control to high and could barely hear anything,and yes it was plugged in all the way. They have a wheel for volume that is very hard to use. I answered a call and could hear a whisper, good thing I had my phone on vibrate.

The CKM500 is not the most accurate IEM, as it have a slight boost in the bass as well as the treble. The mids are by no means recessed though, and in fact are quite clear. The greates strength of these IEMs is that they boast an impressive soundstage. They are not fully sealed, which compromises their isolation, but in return provides an airy, expensive sound. The have great detail, and also provide a solid kick to those who want their bass. These are not quite basshead IEMs, but they are not bass shy by any measure.
These have a great fit and are quite comfortable. The titanium housing is wonderful and you can really feel the build quality when handling them.
By only complaint is that this model uses the short cord (.6m) with the extension (also .6m). This makes it usually just a bit short to use without the extension, but just a slightly too long with the extension. I usually use them when at a desk instead of on the go, so the length has not been an issue for me.
These are a great buy!

During the initial break in period, these earbuds sounded a bit tinny and harsh. But now after more than 100 hrs. of
listening, the edge has worn off and the sound is pristine yet warm. Sound stage and separation are nearly perfect and the
background is negligible.
