Reviews: Audio-Technica ATH-CKS55i Solid Bass Inner Ear Headphones

ATH-CKS55i is a less expensive sequel to last year’s ATH-CKS77, reusing the same housing design with only small changes. As before, ATH-CKS55i achieves an unusually strong level of bass performance for an in-ear design by cheating the...

Both of these models will appeal to specific categories of users. The Solid Bass ATH-CKS55i is a good option for bassheads who are willing to deal with oversized earpieces to get a substantial low-end fix, and want a three-button remote and mic...

Audio Technica ATH-CKS55i review

Big bass is what they promise, and big bass is what you get

Good build quality ; comfortable ; huge bass ; detailed presentation

Don’t have the finesse of the best

Air-chamber makes for a unique fit and more robust sound; multiple layers of adjustment to get the perfect fit

Sound boost drops out if the earpiece isn’t sitting exactly right; Earpiece can get uncomfortable; Acoustics muddle up the mid-range detail

Replaced two

Same problem with both. The connector where the headphones linked too came loose and stopped sound to one ear. I had issues with another pair of their headphones as well. Cheap ones work ok but I would not spend top dollar on this brand for headphones....

Great look, great sound

Was looking for a earphone with control for my iPhone, chose this one after comparing many other brands/models. This earphone provides very clear sound with great bass. Specially designed ear bud sits in the ear very comfortably and it isolates the...

Sound quality, comfortable to wear

Middle button too close to volume button
