Audio-Technica ATH-CKF300 Review

Review: The Audio-Technica ATH-CKF300 canalphones defy their low price tag and designer looks with surprisingly tight sound and design.Headphone wonder brand Audio-Technica goes after the hip female crowd with its ATH-CKF300 “Bloom” canal phones. Featuring a number of available “soft” colors and a floral cardboard carrying case, these small canal phones are surprisingly big on sound. And at just $25 (street price), they are a steal too; if you can find them.There is no doubt about which audience Audio-Technica is trying to appeal to. Young urban women everywhere will find the ATH-CKF300’s to be the perfect companion for that long subway or train ride into the city. The ATH-CKF300’s are available in dark pink, gold, lime green, light pink, pink, purple, white and mint green. Can’t find a color to match your outfit? No problem, at just $25 a pop, you can afford to buy a couple. And if you still cannot find a matching pair, your wardrobe has bigger issues.The ATH-CKF300’s feature an 8.8mm dynamic driver with an 18Hz to 23KHz frequency response, which is pretty amazing for a headphone in this price range. With a sensitivity level of 101 dB/mW, the ATH-CKF300’s are easily powered by any phone or MP3 player.
