Abstract: SA6 In Ear HeadphonesCompany: Sleek Audio Sleek Audios first entry into the crowded arena of portable in ear headphones is in the super-premium $250-plus category. This is a bold and strategic commercial and design decision. SA6 headphones differ fro...
Amazing Sound Stage, great mids and high end, unique VQ system allows you to "tailor" the sound
Small pieces can get easily lost, tricky to swap out Treble Tips, lack of bass response especially in Rock music Pricing
The Sleek SA6 is a whole lot of Earphone for the money. The sound is terrific - especially the high end, midrange and sound stage. The bass is a little lacking - but certainly more than "passable." The ability to customize the sound by swapping out T...

Amazing, tunable sound. Wonderfully comfortable fit from the tapered flange ear tips. Hang down or overthe ear cord routing. $25 replacement cords now, and colored cords on the way.
Spare ports and tips could go missing pretty easily.

The Sleek Audio SA6 in-ear headphones offer rich detail in the low frequency range and a unique modular design that lets users tune the character of the sound quality to suit their tastes.
The modular design of the Sleek Audio SA6 means there are a lot of little parts to lose. For the price, we were hoping for better high-frequency clarity.
