Teaware is not the only thing that loves ceramics. RHA does too! Mayhaps the Scottish connection of tea and earphones? 🙂 That’s a question for the RHA engineers, in the meantime, their new CL1 ceramic earphones are about to start shipping!
The current in-stock estimate at amazon.com is September 10 (2017), with a starting price of $250, sold and shipped by Amazon actual.
UPDATE: Jack pointed out in the comments that there’s a big difference in price. This was announced at IFA 2016, a whole year ago for $450, which is the price at the RHA website as well.
Amazon just recently added it to their website for $250. Price error? Newer model? Price drop? Amazon volume buy? Production and material costs went down?
I will post another update if I find the answer or find someone who knows the answer…
