“There has recently been an onslaught of in-ear headphone companies that are trying to find a solution to this problem, and it is possible that Sleek Audio is the first to rise to the occasion…”

The thing with in-ear headphones is that they never have bass response that is as good as the over the ear kind. The reason is simple; most of the perceived bass frequencies do not originate from the ear canal but from a bone called the mastoid process that is connected to the audio processing center and doesn’t come in contact with what is commonly known as the of this, in-ear headphones have little to no bass response and are primarily judged for their mid to high range capabilities.

There has recently been an onslaught of in-ear headphone companies that are trying to find a solution to this problem, and it is possible that Sleek Audio is the first to rise to the occasion by offering interchangeable bass and treble pieces that allow the listener to fine tune the device. These things sound amazing, and could easily be put in the same category as Shure SCL4s and possibly even Shure SCL5s. As an added bonus, the earpieces disconnect from the audio wires hinting at in-ear wireless capabilities. Sleek Audio offers very advanced technology at a very reasonable price. – Andrew Glassett
