Blatant and obvious "testimony" by someone who stands to gain by FW'ers being sucker'ed in...

P.S. Your logic doesn't even make sense to anybody with a reasonable amount of intelligence. How in the world would it be more expensive to make a fake one?? The whole idea of knock-offs is to that they are lower quality imitations that only look like the real thing; none of the expensive/high-quality components that are in the authentic product are used in the fake ones.

Dear "anybody with a reasonable amount of intelligence" to make fake/replica in real word in many cases means a lot more money spend for special forms/materials/labels...etc. than just make the same one on the same equipment. Please don't overprice your "intelligence" my friend.

fake or not, at this price, you'll get what you pay for. i fell victim to the Koss deal on here and sure enough they came, were light as promised but fit and sounded like dookie.

to be honest, as a throw away pair, they are great... but ill put on my shure e4c's and e5's and risk a mugging on a NYC subway anyday over the koss

yeah...more expensive..as if the real guys don't pay crap for R&D. So does the fake maker pay someone to work on R&D? I am pretty sure they just get parts and assemble it like nobody else business whetreher it sound like crap or nuts

Seems like not. it is funny story ...

just got mine. I havent listened too em too much, but I have played around with them. I have no frame of reference to the more expensive real versions of these buds, so I cannot compare accurately. I can say that for eight bucks I am very happy. They make good subway and street buds for New York. They isolate sound well and are comfortable. I have found them to be a little bassy. I checked them versus the phillips earbuds that look like the Bose ones and the sound was definitely bassy, but not annoyingly so and I am sure that could be corrected via sound/eq settings.

ahdai said:it's fake

Is it fake fake?

just received these...

actually, with that price, i don't really care whether it's fake or not..

good for the gym...that's what im gonna use it for..since i bought them anyway

I received mine. I also ordered the Sennheiser.
They seem ok. So far, I've only used them with my Dell laptop,
which emits some annoying noise out of the headphone jack.
That's a problem with the laptop, not the headphones, since
I've had the same problem running the audio out to my stereo.

I also ordered some 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapters, but received
a Y adapter instead. I wrote the company an email and they
apologized, offering to either refund my $2 or send me the
correct merchandise. I chose the latter and they're shipping today.

I'm happy with the transaction and recommend this company.

FrogsJumpHigher said:The issue for me is that when I take them out on the street walking, the sound of the cord bumping my clothes, or the wind whistling, is also transmitted to my ear, as well as the music.

I was noticing that right away! As soon as I stuck in my ear, I noticed them making loud thumping noises when the cord bumps my clothes. Anyone know if this happens with the real thing? I don't think all in-ear canal buds are this way.
