Piano Forte X-CC: Fabulous but Over $2,500 Earphones!

     Being priced at over US$2,500(!!!!!), this fabulous earphones has "a large neodymium magnet driver, nestled inside a rigid metal housing made of alloy powder and natural resin, designed to minimize bad vibrations"(engadget).
     Further more, "The driver is a hefty 16 mm in diameter, and boasts roughly three times the surface area of your garden variety earphones, resulting in enhanced low frequency soundscapes. Final Audio Design also added a proprietary pressure ring to each model's diaphragm (to ward off sound artifacts), as well as special pressure vents (to optimize air pressure around the diaphragm). Internal air pressure, on the other hand, is kept in check thanks to the X-VIII Series' metallic earpads, which allegedly allow your ear to naturally adjust to any barometric shifts. ... comes in a unique metallic housing, reportedly capable of delivering different audio blends."
     Just wonder how many pecies have been sold so far...
