I really have a great amount of experience with Sony headphones. I am really sorry to tell that this is a counterfeit. It almost looks damn like the real thing but they forgot the only part counterfeiters forget when bootlegging Sony headphones, the plugs. Sony never EVER manufacture their headphones with black bands around the gold plated or silver plated plugs. It's always green and that includes from adapter or extensions. I have a lot of Sony headphones and pretty much confirm this is fake. I double checked my MDR-V700 and it says "Philippines" on the left arm and CE on the right arm. The box should say Philippines also and not China unless it's stated that the box is made from China and headphones from the Philippines. Plus the earcups are too fat as mine is thinner. I got mine direct from Sony. If you want pictures PM me and I'll show you mine.
