SA6 - The Earphones with EQ Control

Nothing could be more personal in the sound domain than earphones; discretion levels are at the max there, obviously, as the sound is literally right in your ears. So it's only predictable that one must be able to control the sound one hears so up close. Sleek Audio has come up with a solution that defines lateral thinking.The SA6 earphones, with 'dismantleable' parts to control EQ.

They have interchangeable parts that can either accentuate the highs or lows according to preference. The treble can be controlled by detaching (or attaching) 3 small parts. On the other side of each earpiece, there's a choice of three interchangeable bass ports that can add the thud which bassheads crave, or roll off the boominess in some badly mastered tracks. All parts are replaceable actually, even the cables. They are like the bearings in a futuristic gadget, straight out of Japanese animation.

The product ships in Mid october, at a retail price of $299, which sounds reasonable, especially because the company has quoted them to be 'In ear monitors'.
