Reviews by Gary on 2008/3/27 17:26:28 (94)This has been, by far, the most difficult Earphone review for me to write. The difficulty is due to the complexity and the “coolness” of this particular product – the Sleek SA6. Imagine being able to custom tune your earphones. Too much treble? You can reduce it. Need more bass? Plug in a “bass port” and give more “oomph” to your music. These are fully customizable earphones with Treble Tubes and Bass Ports you swap in and out to “tailor” the sound to your taste. What more could a “gadget nut” really want?

Bradenton, Fl. Mach 11, 2008 – Sleek Audio, a developer of iPod and other MP3 player earphones, recently became a Premier Sponsor of Head-fi, the world’s largest online community of audiophiles. The sponsorship provides Sleek Audio the opportunity to host threads on their SA6 earphones and answer technical questions for members, which has become increasingly important as discussions on the SA6 have taken on a life of their own after being reviewed by some of Head-fi’s elite members.

Headphone addiction
I have a headphone fetish. A great set of ‘phones are more important to me than any media player, and an average pair completely ruins any listening experience for me. I’ve had an ongoing love affair with V-Moda’s mighty Vibe headphones ($100; v-moda.com) for about a year now, but I try to keep an open mind.
Sleek Audio is an upstart boutique company with roots in hearing-aid design. Their debut product is the ingenious SA6 in-ear headphone system ($250; sleek-audio.com). Crafty innovations include a completely tunable audio experience and modular design. Included are three sets of swappable treble filters and bass ports; I left the installed trebles and plugged in the extended bass ports and was instantly wowed by the precise, rich sound.
